Ep 091: Common coaching pitfalls to avoid

In this second part of our latest coaching series, we look at some of the common pitfalls that coaches and coachees can encounter when working together.

There are lots of ways the coaching journey can get derailed or obstructed – by what we say and do, or fail to do. Pilar and Richard look at the importance of  taking time to reflect between sessions, of honesty and openness and of being clear on the coaching focus.

If you have questions about coaching, we’d love to hear from you. We’ll be addressing listeners’ questions in a later episode of this series, so either message us on Twitter (@MyPocketPsych) or send a long note via our contact form at WorkLifePsych.com/contact.
