\"Trust<\/a>The number one indicator of success in a coaching relationship is the rapport between the coach and the client. Effective rapport building requires establishing trust. Foundational to establishing trust is the level of confidentiality. Ensuring confidentiality is a challenge for an internal coaching program \u2013 both real and perceived.<\/p>\n

The Real Challenge of Confidentiality:
\nRecognizing that the conversations and the notes belong only to the coachee in the care only of the coach.
\n\u2022 This means that the notes must be on the coach\u2019s personal computer, the coachee\u2019s personal computer, or on paper.
\n\u2022 When the coaching relationship is complete, the coach has a set time for keeping notes and then they are either given to the coachee or destroyed.<\/p>\n

The Perceived Challenge of Confidentiality:
\nWithin an organization is the concern that the information is kept in HR files or is shared.
\n\u2022 It is essential to discuss ethics, confidentiality, and record keeping with the coachee in advance and ensure the follow-through on established protocals.<\/p>\n

The Follow-through to Protect Confidentiality:
\nOccasionally a manager or supervisor will ask for a report on the coaching relationship.
\n\u2022 Ideally this is pre-empted in a coaching program with established policies that are public.
\n\u2022 If it does occur, simply refer to the Code of Ethics and the policies manual.<\/p>\n

Do provide the reasons: when confidentiality is protected, the coaching relationship is effective. This in turn provides the high ROI for the coaching program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
