are we a good fit?
Having trained as a Certified Flourishing Coach and with the John Maxwell Team, I’ve noticed what it takes to become a successful coach who has significant impact. You may be asking yourself what is needed to make it as a coach. Here’s what I’ve noticed makes a GREAT coach:
a good listener
One of the greatest myths is that coaches do most of the talking. They don’t. They spend the majority of their time LISTENING and asking great questions that lead their clients to the answer they are looking for.
optimistic
Coaches see opportunities where others see obstacles. They empathise with their clients and where they are at, but they are also able to move them to see past limitations to possibilities.
educated
Life experience makes them an amazing coach already, and so when you combine that with the evidenced-based practices learned in the Certified Flourishing Coaching™ model, there's a great framework for your success.
growth mindset
Great coaches know how to listen to their inner voice. They are intuitive and reflective. They know they don’t have all the answers but look for a way to find them. They are committed to their own personal growth and move others towards a growth mindset as well.
