Coaching for Change: Promises We Can and Cannot Make
Clients often ask me: "Can you guarantee results?" They might want coaching to improve a manager's decision-making or increase team productivity. And they seek certainty of specific outcomes.
But change doesn't work like that. It's a journey, not a destination - an inner path of discovery with twists and turns. It requires digging deep to understand resistance and fear. Only then can we dismantle them, brick by brick.
That's why I don’t guarantee results. But what I do promise is commitment to the process - a commitment to identifying obstacles to growth and searching for the appropriate solutions.
What do you think? How do you prefer to approach change in your practices? I'd love to hear your perspectives!
And always remember:
Great managers are made. Not born.
