Answer Questions

A coach’s job isn’t to make the client feel better – it’s to help them see better. Resistance and discomfort often indicate an imminent breakthrough. How you walk your clients through these moments is critical for effective coaching.

In this session, you’ll learn to go deeper into coaching conversations – even if it makes the client uncomfortable. Learn to spot the signs and signals of a potential breakthrough, plus: you’ll take part in an interactive Q&A.

  1. What makes it difficult for you to challenge a client’s thinking?
  2. Many coaches say they were taught to never make the client uncomfortable, yet disrupting thinking patterns and using reflections that cause clients to accept the gaps in their logic and fear-based beliefs can trigger emotional responses. Do you now see a value in coaching through discomfort? Are there times when this type of coaching can erode confidence and the will to move forward?
  3. What skills do you think coaches need to develop to be able to positively challenge a client’s thinking?
