Coaching is a form of development where a coach assists a client in accomplishing a particular professional or personal objective. Coaching is important because it fosters personal growth for people with a variety of needs. Those who undergo coaching report improved work performance, and 85% express higher self-confidence. However, coaching has its limitations like any other profession. Some of the most common challenges and limitations of coaching include a lack of clear objectives, spoon-feeding answers to the client rather than listening to their needs and asking questions, lack of confidence, etc.

When it comes to change, it is useful to recognize that there will be some emotion attached to it and some different emotional responses that people go through. But overall, people do acclimatize to the new reality. So that’s also useful to recognize. As coaches, we can do good work just in reassuring someone that these are quite normal emotions to feel when going through change. Not as glib as ‘this too shall pass but recognizing that it is a stage to go through and that hopefully things will improve.

So, we can help with:
​
-
normalizing the emotional reaction to change for people
-
some perspective taking
-
recognizing why the change is happening from the organizational perspective,
-
what it means for the people around them,
-
how they might reframe it more positively

And to find some new perspective and to explore possibilities.

One side of change is definitely coming to terms with that change. Another side of change is where a client wants something to change. They might not recognize that it is change at the outset. They might see it a problem that need’s fixing.

​Change isn’t easy. Certainly, if it’s being done to you, there’s a degree to which you have to work to accept it. If you’re wanting to bring about change, then the work is around what you actually want to have happen, and then the steps that you’re going to take, the options you’ve got in order to make that happen, and then the steps you’re going to take to move forward on it
