A clarification route for coaching needs outside the named categories, used to establish the objective, audience and appropriate support method. It does not broaden a coach's competence into counselling, treatment or regulated advice.
What is normally included
- Clarifying an unlisted coaching goal
- Matching a suitable coaching approach
- Agreeing a limited introductory discussion
What is not included
- Undefined all-purpose coaching promises
- Clinical or professional advice outside competence
- Coaching another person without their participation
Typical tasks
- Clarify the goal and audience
- Identify the expected support method
- Check coaching suitability
- Define participation and privacy

What to include in your brief
- Goal summary
- Intended participant
- Personal or organisational context
- Preferred method
- Timing and format
Choosing the right professional
Ask the provider to name the actual service and its boundaries before buying a package. A useful introductory discussion should clarify fit and alternatives, not treat any personal difficulty as a coaching opportunity.
Important considerations
- Vague goals can mask another professional need
- The enquirer may not be the participant
- Confidentiality may be unclear in sponsored arrangements
