The coaching contract: what does it mean for the client?
Lindsay’s article on what really goes on in contracting has been published in Coaching at Work magazine, January-February 2014 issue. The article explores the fact that, especially for coaching clients new to coaching, the meaning of the contract only becomes clear not when they hear or read the words of the contract, but once they’re experiencing the coaching, the impact of the coaching relationship and the value that reflection gives them. As this can take two or three sessions, perhaps the contracting process itself would benefit from being more reflective. See the article here
