Coaching does not give people the answers; instead, it is a process for clients to process the situation and decide what to do for themselves.<\/p>\n<p>The opposite of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coaching.html\">coaching<\/a> is giving people the answers to the problems or situations they are facing. When someone receives an answer (or is told what to do), three outcomes are likely:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>They don\u2019t do what their told because it is not their solution (this is the most likely outcome).<\/li>\n<li>They do what they\u2019re told and it doesn\u2019t work.<\/li>\n<li>They do what they\u2019re told and it works, and this creates a dependency on the coach.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>\u201cThese outcomes are what happens with leaders all the time,\u201d describes Liska. \u201cThey are not developing people that are capable until they come up with their own answers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coaching does not give the solutions or plans. Instead, it is a process to walk people through to figure out the solution. For change practitioners, the ability to coach both leaders and people impacted by change is an opportunity for those individuals to decide for themselves what to do.<\/p>\n<p>For organizations, coaching develops employees that can consider and own the course of action based on what they think is the best solution.\u00a0 This, in turn, means they own the course of action and are more likely to follow through \u2013 which is essential when implementing change.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/training.html\">Coach training<\/a> will help leaders and people impacted by change to \u201csay what they do want and make sure that the focus is proactive,\u201d says Liska. \u201cThat\u2019s the game-changer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from LaMarsh Global &#8211; https:\/\/www.lamarsh.com\/ Change Management calls for creating buy-in to change and how to achieve it successfully.\u00a0 Telling is of limited value in &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8888,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,131,470,471,16,40],"tags":[195,1283,48,85,50,1285],"class_list":["post-8887","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-coaching-program","category-coaching-resources","category-coaching-skills","category-coaching-stories","category-tools-and-techniques","tag-change","tag-change-management","tag-coach","tag-coach-training","tag-coaching","tag-the-importance-of-coaching-in-change-management","latest_post"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8887","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8887"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8887\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8889,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8887\/revisions\/8889"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8887"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8887"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8887"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
