1. Coaching Techniques
for Professionals in
Student Services by
Howard Irvin

2. Do you interact with students in any way? Do
you see how providing them counsel and advise
does not cause them to take responsibility for
their actions and be accountable? If so, learning
some fundamental coaching techniques would
definitely be beneficial for you both.

3. Helping clients create
their own solutions to
challenges is the main
objective of coaching.
People are able to hold one
other and themselves
accountable because to it.
The questions that
advisors and coaches pose
to clients include:

4. 1.Determine the student's
current circumstance.
2.the state they prefer
3. a strategy for getting
there.

5. One of the most difficult components of
coaching for other educated helping
professions is understanding that
coaches don't "inform" or "give
answers." They provide open-ended,
non-leading questions to students in an
effort to get them to reflect on their own
thinking, think about problems from
various perspectives, and develop their
own solutions.
