What is the Difference Between Coaching and Consulting, Therapy or Old-Fashioned Friendships?

• Coaching is like consulting, but it really goes beyond that relationship. A coach will stay with the client and make sure they realize their goals through the implementation of new skills and adjustments.
• Coaching is not therapy. We won’t be working to understand human behavior or to resolve your “issues” because that is the clients’ responsibility. What we will do is help a client to progress by helping you to set personal and professional goals to achieve the results they have always wanted from their life.
• Under the professional coaching philosophy, you will easily recognize several principles associated with sports coaching. Things like teamwork, going for the goal and giving it your best are integral parts of both forms of coaching. The difference between professional coaching and sports coaching is that no one ever loses—it’s always a win situation in professional coaching.
• Everyone needs a best friend, but they aren’t always a professional who you can trust to leave their biases towards you behind and be honest in their advice to you on the most important aspects of your life and business.
