This means having a clear vision of where they want to go, what they want to achieve, and\/or who they want to become. This is potentially the most important step because it will define the rest of the session or even coaching relationship, especially for high performing clients who want to dream bigger than ever before. Many coaches even invest their first 1-2 coaching sessions focused solely on defining the goal itself and why it&#8217;s important for the client, before heading onto the next parts.After the goal is clear and defined, it&#8217;s on to looking deeply into the client&#8217;s&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;nova bold new&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">current&nbsp;Reality<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family: &quot;nova reg&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">&nbsp;to establish their starting point &#8211; where they are now and what is happening for them. This step will help uncover information or insights the client may have missed&#8230; such as resources they may need or people in their immediate surroundings or network who can help them achieve their goals. Put your deep listening skills into action for this section. Dive deep, be curious, ask questions&#8230;. really understand what is happening for the client &#8211; their challenges, roadblocks, fears, dreams, emotions, etc.Next, it&#8217;s about exploring&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;nova bold new&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">Options<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family: &quot;nova reg&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\"> or working through <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;nova bold new&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">Obstacles.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family: &quot;nova reg&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">&nbsp;The client and coach work together to create a clear picture of the options or paths they can choose to get to their goals and also identify obstacles and challenges that are in the way. The objective of this step is to brainstorm as many options as possible to overcome the challenges and\/or achieve their goals, and then help the client prioritize and start taking action.Finally, <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;nova bold new&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">Way Forward<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family: &quot;nova reg&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\"> or <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;nova bold new&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">Will<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: rgb(33, 37, 41); font-family: &quot;nova reg&quot;;\" data-uw-styling-context=\"true\">&nbsp;is about highlighting clear action steps the client can take to immediately start moving toward their goals. Usually, in this step, the client chooses one or two actions to get done before the next coaching session.
