Decision support

Is coaching right for me?

Coaching can be valuable when something in life or work needs attention, but not every situation calls for coaching. Understanding when coaching may be helpful can make it easier to choose the right type of support.

01

When coaching may be helpful

  • You're facing an important decision.
  • Something needs to change.
  • You feel stuck.
  • You're navigating a transition.
  • You want greater clarity.
  • You want accountability and follow-through.
  • You want to grow personally or professionally.
  • You want support taking action on goals that matter to you.

  • Medical concerns
  • Legal advice
  • Financial planning

  • Clinical diagnosis or treatment
