There is much more to coaching than simply picking up the phone at a pre-arranged serious amounts of connecting with your client for a 30 minute chat!

If you want to charge top coaching fees, you better be to be able to go the extra mile and turn your coaching session into a coaching experience.
There are many elements that make up a properly executed coaching session. Here are the 10 session criteria that I consider essential for creating a coaching experience!
Preparation
Before I come in contact with a client, I always allow myself fifteen minutes to properly prepare for the session. Right here is the time when I all of the following:
I review all my notes.
Every time I conduct a coaching session, I take detailed notes on everything that happens during the workout session. I am always amazed at how many coaches rely on memory from one session to your next. If you don’t take notes, you are in your home credible and professional coach! Winging is actually also for the in addition to!
I check my Coaching Timeline.
Every Coaching Program that I get ready for a client uses a 3 – 6 month timeline. I use this timeline to hold both the client and myself critical to achieving measurable progress toward a Desired Outcome.
I read the “Prep Sheet”.
Prior to every session, my clients submit a Coaching Prep Sheet where they write a short summary of the progress they made since the last session and where they want to spend some extra time during the next session.
I prepare a Session Agenda.
Based on the notes, timeline and prep sheet, I create a simple agenda that I am going to use to maintain ones coaching session on track and on time. Now I’m ready to make the video call!
Maintaining Control
When you participate in a coaching session with your client, it is vital that you are in associated with the conversation all the!You are the conductor of your “coaching bus” your client is the passenger!

If they can drive riding on the bus themselves, why would they need you? Yet so many coaches allow their clients to “hijack” the coaching bus and take control within the session.

Asking Questions
Lead the conversation by asking wonders! These questions must be targeted and focused on the wanted Outcome. Listen intently to your client’s answers!
Ask more factors! Maintain control! And then wait for the “Coaching Climax”!
Creating Coaching Sexual climaxes.
A Coaching Climax is the ‘mental trigger’ that validates and authenticates a pivotal point in a coaching session.I deliberately chose the word ‘climax’ as a metaphor for the powerful impact it on a coaching client.A skillful Coach can achieve multiple Coaching Climaxes to get a client during a coaching session.
If your client does not experience at least one coaching climax for every 15 minutes of coaching, your coaching session did not measure up on the rigorous standards on a Coaching EXPERT!
Achieving Milestones.
A sure-fire technique keep your clients motivated and to normal is to provide measurable accomplishments during and following each coaching session.Recognize the progress the client has made as being the last session and point out any recent ‘milestones’ that he/she has accomplished.A ‘Success Formula’ is created when a string of ‘milestones’ are recorded around the path to achieving a Desired Judgment.
Keeping focus on the Desired Outcome.
If you don’t keep focus on the Desired Outcome, the client may start to wander in different directions. While surely do not to be able to stifle any chance your clients to be able to a Coaching Climax, you must guard against any random deviations from the session agenda. A person’s don’t, the session will miss its objective and will be difficult to record in your notes in the context of the overall Desired Outcome.
