Business coaching — Coach — Professionals

Business coaches should identify the individual's objective, decision authority and expected mode of support. A leadership reflection brief and a request to build financial models or run marketing campaigns require different services and must not be blurred.

Service scope

Coaching for a business owner or leader on their own goals, decision-making and working practices. It differs from a consultant delivering specialist implementation and from regulated advice on law, tax or investment.

What is normally included

  • Owner or leadership goal clarification
  • Reflection on business decisions
  • Accountability for chosen actions

What is not included

  • Guaranteed revenue growth
  • Tax or investment recommendations
  • Operational implementation assumed to be included

Qualification checks

  • Confirm the person being coached
  • Define the decision or behaviour focus
  • Separate coaching and consultancy
  • Agree confidential information boundaries
  • Set progress and review criteria

Quote guidance

Price sessions, preparation and agreed business-context review explicitly. Identify any separate consulting or workshop deliverables rather than selling a broad business-growth promise as the output of coaching.

Lead risks

  • The client may expect direct operational execution
  • Several partners may have conflicting expectations
  • Commercial outcomes may be attributed unrealistically to sessions
