Schedule initial consultation with the coaching client
This task involves scheduling an initial consultation with the coaching client to discuss the coaching plan and determine if both parties are a good fit for each other. It is important to find a mutually convenient time for the consultation and provide clear instructions on how the client can join the meeting (e.g., Zoom link, phone number). By scheduling this consultation, you are taking the first step towards building a coaching relationship based on trust and open communication.
Conduct initial consultation to discuss the coaching plan
During the initial consultation, you will have an opportunity to discuss the coaching plan with the client and determine if it aligns with their needs and goals. It is important to create a safe and supportive environment where the client feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and concerns. This consultation is also an opportunity for the client to ask questions and learn more about your coaching approach. By the end of this consultation, both parties should have a clear understanding of what to expect from the coaching engagement.
Approve recommended coaching plan
This task involves obtaining the client's approval of the recommended coaching plan. It is important to ensure that the client understands and agrees with the proposed coaching approach, objectives, and timeline. By obtaining their approval, you are confirming their commitment to the coaching process and setting the stage for a successful coaching engagement. It is important to address any questions or concerns the client may have and provide any additional information or clarification as needed.

Prepare and send coaching agreement to the client
In this task, you will prepare a coaching agreement that outlines the terms and conditions of the coaching engagement. The coaching agreement should include details about the coaching fees, payment terms, confidentiality, and cancellation policy. Once the agreement is prepared, it should be sent to the client for their review and signature. It is important to ensure that the client understands and agrees to the terms of the coaching agreement before proceeding with the coaching sessions.
Coaching Agreement
Confirm the client's acceptance of the agreement
This task involves confirming the client's acceptance of the coaching agreement. Once the client has reviewed and signed the agreement, they should confirm their acceptance by notifying you via email or another agreed-upon method. It is important to obtain this confirmation before proceeding with the coaching sessions to ensure that both parties are in agreement and committed to the coaching process.
Schedule first coaching session
This task involves scheduling the first coaching session with the client. It is important to find a mutually convenient time for the session and provide clear instructions on how the client can join the meeting (e.g., Zoom link, phone number). It is also helpful to provide an overview of what to expect during the first coaching session to help the client feel prepared and comfortable.
Prepare materials for the first coaching session
In this task, you will prepare the necessary materials for the first coaching session. These materials may include worksheets, assessments, or other resources that will be used during the session. It is important to ensure that these materials are relevant to the client's goals and needs and will support their progress in the coaching process. The materials should be organized and easily accessible for the session.
Provide welcome packet to coaching client
As part of the client onboarding process, this task involves providing a welcome packet to the coaching client. The welcome packet should include important information about the coaching process, expectations, scheduling, and contact details. It is important to ensure that the client has all the necessary information to feel prepared and supported throughout the coaching engagement. The welcome packet can be provided in digital format (e.g., PDF) or physical format (e.g., mailed package).
Schedule follow up call post first session
Following the first coaching session, it is important to schedule a follow-up call with the client to check-in on their progress and discuss any insights or observations from the session. This follow-up call provides an opportunity to address any questions or concerns the client may have and ensure that they feel supported as they continue their coaching journey. It is important to find a mutually convenient time for the call and provide clear instructions on how the client can join the meeting (e.g., Zoom link, phone number).
Assess and adapt coaching plan based on first session
Based on the insights and observations from the first coaching session, this task involves assessing and adapting the coaching plan as needed. It is important to review the client's progress, identify any areas of improvement, and make adjustments to the coaching approach and objectives. By continuously evaluating the coaching plan, you can ensure that it remains relevant and effective in supporting the client's development.
