    Distinguishes surface listening from empathic and intuitive listening levels. Learners practise shifting between levels to capture what clients say and leave unsaid.

    Covers the agreements and expectations established before and at the start of each session. Clear contracting prevents misalignment and protects both coach and client.

    Introduces qualitative and quantitative methods for monitoring goal achievement. Measurement creates accountability and surfaces early signs of goal drift.

    Explores how individual coaching goals intersect with team and business objectives. Alignment increases client motivation and organisational return on coaching investment.

  • Lesson 4 • Values-Based Goal Setting

Chapter 6See details

Coaching Through Challenges and Resistance

    Equips coaches to hold space for strong emotions without redirecting prematurely. Emotional processing often unlocks insight unavailable through purely rational dialogue.

  • Lesson 2 • Identifying and Shifting Limiting Beliefs

    Teaches coaches to surface and challenge beliefs that constrain client action. Belief-shifting is among the highest-impact interventions in executive coaching.

  • Lesson 3 • Challenging and Direct Communication

    Develops the coach’s ability to offer honest, respectful challenge when clients avoid growth. Direct communication, delivered with care, accelerates client development.

  • Lesson 4 • Understanding Resistance in Coaching
