I am currently Head of Teaching and Learning at Gateshead College. I was first introduced to coaching in 2004 as a tool to develop the practice of teachers within the classroom. I have since developed my understanding of coaching as a leadership and management approach and would describe myself as a practising coach.Gillian Forrester

Non-directive
Coaching differs from other helping relationships such as mentoring and guidance in that it does not offer advice nor do coaches suggest that they are experts.
How is Coaching different from other helping processes?

Dependence to Self Directed
At work many bosses rely on telling others - directly or indirectly - what to do and how to do it, but as a coach it is important to have a broader range of approaches in developing staff use a range of approaches from telling to asking.
ask questions& paraphrase

giveadvice
tell what& how
more empowering more controlling
PUSHPULL
Ask Tell Continuum
Demonstrate
• Coaching is the opposite of telling someone what to do. Coaching involves the use of questions to help raise awareness and understanding of the person being coached.
• Coaching is basically the art of asking good questions, knowing when and how to ask them and of actively listening to the answer.
• Effective coaches have the ability to, and the willingness to:
• ask effective questions, actively listen, be aware and attentive to
non verbal language
• give and receive feedback
• remain detached and non-judgmental
• build rapport and empathy
