If your zoom audience has not got the energy, they will almost start scanning the information you're delivering, they will not absorb it and not take it in. What are the most important qualities that usually make the difference between a good coach and a great one? What makes the difference between a good coach and a great coach is actually the investment that the coach puts into themselves in order for them to be at the cutting edge of business tools, and business understanding. When you respect your clients, you're going to prepare for your session, when you're going to respect your clients, you're going to invest in yourself to develop yourself to provide them with the highest value. When you respect your client, you're going to respect his ability and capability in finding the right answers. Don't work with a client unless you're going to learn something from them. It's easy to work with clients, and then just drown them with your experience that becomes intimidating There's nothing worse than being drowned with experience and drowned with information from your coach. Mastering the art of connection is key to go from a good coach to a great one. When it comes to business coaching the minute’s count, and you're going to be evaluated at the end of the agreement, Connection for me, I think is one of the key characteristics and skills that make the difference between a good coach and a great coach. You are 100% immersed in this interaction whether it's one hour or the 45 minutes or a one and a half hour but listening at the highest level is something that makes a huge difference. You've got to be three ears, and one month. When you become four ears, and one mouth, then you're intentional listening. I'm very conscious of keeping detailed notes from every conversation that i have with my client. Our job is to build that person into a business, not build a business, then build the person. Authenticity is something that sometimes it's hard to see when we've not experienced it for ourselves in our life. Be true to yourself to be true to another.
