Effective Questions Used in Coaching
Susan Rubinoff, Yukon Territory Canada
Abstract: One thing that has become quite apparent to me as a coaching relationship develops is learning where the comfort zone is for my client and subsequently how to ask the right questions to move him outside of his comfort zone and to enhance thought. I frequently ask questions or create scenarios that encourage my client to look at a different perspective or challenge my client to be clear about his or her intentions. The thought that it creates and the alternative ideas stimulated further awareness for my client.
