Now, more leaders are rushing to coaches than ever. Although coaching is not a new concept, the unpredictability and insecurities are driving corporate executives to seek help.
And the harsh truth is: Not all engagements lead to where they are intended leaving both parties with a sour taste.
Here are the main reasons:
1. The goals are not defined
2. The chemistry is missing between the coach and the client which they are unaware of or do not acknowledge
3. The coach onboards even if the client is not ready or committed
4. The roles, responsibilities, and commitments are not clarified
5. The coach and the coachee don’t hold each other to account on a regular basis
6. The coach is insecure and gives priority to his interests than the coachee’s aspirations and goals and
7. When the coaching is free!
