While similar fields, each service has distinctly different goals and results. We want you to find the best results possible. Coaching can work in conjunction with counseling or consulting. But coaching shouldn’t substitute either. Determine what you’d like to accomplish to find the results you need. Let’s begin by taking this short, five-minute quiz.
Answer each question below with a yes or no.
Section One - Coaching
- Do you want to look to the future, or focus on the past?
- Are you ready to move to a higher functioning level?
- Do you want to work with someone whose roots are in personal growth?
- Are you ready to take action to learn new skills?
- Do you want to focus on finding solutions?
If you answered yes to most of these questions, you are a good candidate for coaching.
Section Two - Counseling
- Do you want to explore the root of your problem(s)?
- Do you need emotional healing?
- Do you want to focus on past events?
- Do you want to work toward resolving internal pain?
- Do you want to bring the unconscious into the consciousness?
If you answered yes to most of these questions, you may be seeking counseling instead of coaching.
Section Three - Consulting
- Will the coach and employee alone determine their work scope?
- Do you want to evaluate performance or produce reports for anyone other than the individual being coached?
- Will coaching be restricted to a narrowly defined issue?
- Do you seek particular expertise to diagnose, direct or design solutions for the employee?
If you answered yes to most of these questions, you may be seeking consulting instead of coaching.
