ABSTRACT
Solution-focused coaching (SFC) is an outcome-oriented, competence-based approach. It helps coachees to achieve their preferred outcomes by evoking and co-constructing solutions to their problems. SFC fits perfectly with the future-focused, goal-directed spirit of coaching. Rather than problem-solve, the solution-focused coach gives centre stage to the skills, strengths, knowledge and experience of the coachee. The coach’s role is to stretch, clarify, support and empower coachees to design and implement solutions which will work for them.
