Wie kommunizieren Sie effektiv mit Coaching-Klienten, die unterschiedliche Erwartungen oder Ziele haben?

Clarify expectations: Start by clarifying your client's expectations and goals. Ask questions to ensure you understand what they are looking for and what they hope to achieve through coaching. This will help you tailor your coaching approach to meet their needs and avoid any misunderstandings.

Communicating expectations with continuous check-ins is the foundation for a successful coaching relationship. Without a clear understanding of what your client wants to achieve, it will not be possible to bring them along and attain their goals. When potential clients have goals out of alignment with your expertise, it is important to have the integrity to walk away or refer them out. All clients are not good fits and knowing exactly who you work best with will ensure a successful coaching practice overall.

Make sure the goals discussed are actually THEIR goals and not ones they "think they should have". Trying to achieve other people's goals won't get them anywhere pleasant. If they are unclear, make it your mission to help guide them to clarifying some goals that they are genuinely invigorated by.

Listen actively: One of the most important aspects of effective communication is active listening. This means really paying attention to what your client is saying, and taking the time to understand their perspective. Ask open-ended questions to encourage them to share more about their goals and expectations. Use empathy: Empathy is key to building trust and rapport with your clients. Try to put yourself in their shoes and understand their perspective. This will help you tailor your coaching approach to their needs and build a stronger relationship.

I like to consider that the client has their own unique language. They resonate with certain tone, words and phrasing. Just by speaking to them in that "language" and listening intently and with curiosity, you've set yourself apart from the majority of coaches.

Manage expectations: Be transparent about what you can and can't do as a coach, and manage your client's expectations accordingly. This will help avoid any disappointments or misunderstandings down the line. Set clear boundaries: It's important to set clear boundaries with your clients to ensure that your coaching sessions are productive and effective. Be clear about what you expect from your clients, and what they can expect from you.

Be flexible: Remember that different clients will have different needs and goals, and that these may change over time. Be willing to adapt your coaching approach to meet the evolving needs of your client.

My Coaching focus is not about what my goals are for my clients, but helping my clients get to their authentic, core self so that they can gain clarity about what goals or lifestyle will be in flow for them. True inner peace and success only come when we are in alignment with our true self. What might be one man or woman’s bliss, could be another’s absolute misery. Once we truly step into what gives us energy and lights is up, versus what drains us and stresses us, is when we can then finally design a life and relationships we love. Simple, effective, efficient, self-honoring . ❤️🔥

Communicate regularly: Regular communication is key to maintaining a strong coaching relationship. Make sure to check in with your clients regularly to see how they are progressing towards their goals, and to address any concerns or questions they may have.
