You are here wondering how online coaching sessions looks like.
I would like to share with you my initial process of individual online coaching session with a client.
Before the first coaching session with a new client, I always organise 15-20 minutes call where we talk through all the important aspects. Through this conversation, we talk about the following points:
1. what coaching is and what coaching is not.
We talk about this aspect in order to avoid misunderstanding and unrealistic expectations.
I would also ask what is your topic that you want to bring to the online coaching sessions. Sometimes there is no specific topic. This process helps to understand if the topic you want to bring is in the scope of my competences as a coach. Also, if the topic is suitable for coaching in general. This also helps coach to be ready for the first session and foresee if the client better needs other type of support.
What do I mean by other type of support? In case of clinical ilness, coaching is not suitable support. I could offer you other possible ways to explore your situation. So all in all, free discovery call is beneficial for you in any way.
2. General information about coachee.
My background as a coach, time and length of the online coaching session, process of coaching, and fees.
3. Confidentiality in coaching.
For the coachee to feel safe, it is crucial to let you know that what happens in coaching session will stay confidential. You would be also informed that the case might be discussed with my Supervisor (keeping the name of the coachee confidential). I also emphasize that I follow The Global Code of Ethics by the Association for Coaching.
4. Chemistry in coaching.
Initial call also helps to understand for both coach (this is me) and coach (this is you or your friend who will get a gift coupon) whether we are a good match to work together. For smooth and productive process, both coach and coachee needs to understand it.
The email with all consolidated information would be sent to the possible future coachee after the initial call. Finnaly, we would sign initial agreement. And voila! Your Coaching journey is about to begin.
