What does a coach do?

• The coach works with you on a one to one basis with a mix of physical meetings and telephone conversations.
• You set the agenda.
• The coach provides the time and space for reflection, opening new perspectives, and asking the challenging questions.
• The coach will support and stretch you in process of setting goals and plans to achieve them.
