“Go and make disciples…”

How to Think Like a Coach

4. They—NOT you—already have the answer.

04/09/2023 © 2012 CoachNet Global LLC/Brethren Church General Conference14

IF you prescribe…

…someone’s route to getting something done…

It eliminates the possibility of coaching.

5. You change the other person’s perspective—just by showing up.

FIRST of all…

Coaching is a relationship.

If there’s no relationship, there’s no coaching.

Add coaching skills once the relationship is healthy enough!
