How do I Find a Coach?
There are several ways of finding a coach but before you start looking, take time to thing about:
- what you would like to achieve through engaging a coach
- what style works best for you
- whether you want your coach to be local and be able to meet face to face
- whether you are looking for a coach with specific experience or background
- what you can afford to pay
It is also useful to read the How do I Choose a Coach? briefing, which outlines another of other important issues to consider.
Ways to find a coach include:
The personal recommendation of friends or colleagues
The recommendation of your Personnel/Human Resources professional at work
