LIFE COACHING

What is Life Coaching?

Before the 1980's coaching was primarily focused on achieving improvements in a specific performance area. It was the coach's job to observe a person's behavior and give tips on improvement. This type of coaching was thought to originate from a sports training model and is focused at the behavioral level, creating more conscious awareness.

After the 1980's coaching took on a more generalized and expanded meaning. What has become known as "life coaching" provides support on a number of different levels, ranging from behaviors to beliefs and values.
