What is Coaching vs. Advising/Consulting?

 

Differences between coaching and Advising or Consulting

Coaching works best for people who are ready to go to the next level in their career or business. A coach is very action oriented and asks you WHAT you are willing to do, WHEN will you do it and HOW will you get it done. Business coaching entails bringing about positive change in the working of an organization and the workers as a whole. It helps to determine goals that meet the best potential of the individual or organization.

Advising or Consulting may be described as something to do with giving professional or expert advice. In addition, it often involves an expert using his own skills to improve a given situation for his client.

Generally speaking I believe that most situations are best addressed with a combination of coaching and advising or consulting rather than one or the other.

The results of my coaching and advising are fool-proof plans for moving forward - I partner with you in actualizing those plans.
