ABSTRACT

The above story highlights the essence of life coaching as a method of helping a person to find out where they want to be, taking in all factors of their life, then working out a route plan that will help them to reach it. You can think of the role of a coach as a kind of vehicle – a method of transport to help a person get from A to B. The focus is always on moving forward towards an end-destination, the goal they have chosen to aim for, although a major part of a coach’s work is often to help the client to define what that goal is in the first place.
