session, you collaborate to co-create the coaching process.\u00a0 Prior to the session, you send a form with questions about the status of their business to define their reality, their thoughts, and their objectives, moving toward their goals.<\/p>\n<p>Following the GROW model, you ask the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/matching-coach-and-coachee\/\">coachee<\/a> about their status quo and their goals in terms of business growth, management, sustainability, scale-ability, and sale-ability.\u00a0 With the goals and reality defined, the coachee is ready to explore their options and opportunities.\u00a0 Next you ask the coachee how they will move forward.\u00a0 Specific action steps are scheduled.\u00a0 In the following coaching session, you ask how they are doing.\u00a0 You challenge them on incomplete tasks and celebrate their progress and success.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you are working on tasks during the coaching session.\u00a0 Other times you role play challenging conversations.\u00a0 When the coachee reaches a point where they have accomplished what they wanted from the coaching, you plan a session to strategize how they will maintain their progress and continue creating successes.\u00a0 In a closing session, you review what the coachee accomplished through coaching and their resources moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Questions for this Coaching
