When interviewing a potential life coach, use these questions to make sure there is a fit between your needs and your coach's style.
When interviewing potential coaches, it's important to ask questions to make sure there is a "fit" between your needs and your coach's style. These questions can include:
What is the coaching process?
Have you coached others in similar situations, and what were their results?
What coaching training have you had?
What coaching experience do you have?
What is your philosophy about coaching and about achieving success in life?
What else do you do as part of your career besides coaching?
What success have you had with clients in similar situations?
What commitment do you require from your client?
What are your fees?
How often do we talk?
If I want to work on an area of my life that you do not specialize in, do you have a network of other coaches that you can refer me to?
