The coaching process is forwardlooking and solution-focused from "summary" of Appreciative Coaching by Sara L. Orem,Jacqueline Binkert,Ann L. Clancy
As coaches, it is essential for us to remember that our primary aim is to help our clients move forward towards their goals. This means that we must shift our focus away from dwelling on past problems and instead concentrate on exploring potential solutions and possibilities. By adopting a forward-looking and solution-focused approach, we can guide our clients in a positive direction, encouraging them to envision a brighter future and take steps towards achieving it. When we engage in appreciative coaching, we are not interested in rehashing past failures or dwelling on what went wrong. Instead, we strive to create a space where our clients can explore their strengths, successes, and aspirations. By shining a light on these positive aspects, we can help our clients tap into their inherent resources and capabilities, empowering them to overcome obstacles and reach their desired outcomes. By keeping our focus on the future and on solutions, we can help our clients break free from limiting beliefs and patterns that may be holding them back. Rather than getting stuck in a cycle of problem-solving, we encourage our clients to think creatively and expansively about the possibilities that lie ahead. This shift in perspective can be incredibly empowering, as it allows our clients to see themselves as capable, resourceful individuals who are fully capable of creating the futures they desire.- By embracing a forward-looking and solution-focused approach to coaching, we can help our clients unlock their full potential and chart a course towards success. As we guide them on this journey, we must remember to remain positive, supportive, and encouraging, always holding space for their dreams and aspirations. In doing so, we can help our clients move beyond their current challenges and towards a future filled with possibility and promise.
