Some important factors you may wish to consider when hiring a coach are the following:
- How well does the coach’s specialty area(s) match my needs and goals?
- What is the coach’s background, including education and training, professional experience, and certifications?
- Is the coach’s location convenient for me? Do they work in person, by phone, or both?
- And finally, is this a person with whom I can form an effective and rewarding partnership?
When you have narrowed your search, consider interviewing two or three coaches before making a final selection.
