The results they have in mind may be vaguely defined or crystal clear, but in either case, Clients may not have been able to achieve the results that they want on their own. The coaching relationship provides an environment to discuss these issues confidentially and the coach is bound by a code of ethics to keep this confidence. For coaching to work there must be commitment on the part of the client to explore, take risks and to invest the time and energy for the coaching sessions and related follow-up actions.
