What Coaching IS vs ISN’T
The aim of executive coaching is to improve leadership and management performance, through developing your self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and capacity to influence others.

Often people think coaching is telling people what to do and to solve their problems - but coaching isn't teaching, counseling, or mentoring. It’s about asking the right questions to come up with your own solutions.

A coach’s role is to help you learn to see yourself more clearly, personally, and professionally — to discover and expand your capabilities and to inspire and support you as you work towards your full potential and goals.
