Aligning client feedback with coaching goals starts with being an active listener and staying open to constructive input. I make it a priority to not just hear but truly understand their perspective. Regular check-ins are key to adjusting my approach and ensuring we’re on the same page. I also ensure that the feedback loops are two-way — my clients are as involved in shaping the process as I am. By connecting their feedback to real, actionable goals, I keep us both focused on the bigger picture. Success happens when we’re moving together in the same direction, one step at a time!

Em cada sessão é preciso trabalhar o objetivo desejado, e isso é uma evolução contínua. Se o cliente sai do "foco" seu objetivo como treinador é colocar ele alinhado no foco e isso depende de muitas questões, pois ele pode ter dificuldades para chegar ao objetivo por várias razões e isso deve sempre ser trabalhado.

To ensure client feedback aligns with coaching goals, it’s important to regularly check in and clarify their needs and expectations. Encourage open and honest conversations, actively listen to their concerns, and assess if their feedback aligns with the goals set at the beginning. If there’s any misalignment, revisit the objectives and adjust the approach accordingly, ensuring both the client’s feedback and the coaching goals are in harmony. This process fosters trust and keeps both sides focused on achieving the desired outcome.

Nos meus atendimentos exercito regularmente a vulnerabilidade. Sei que é desafiador, mas ele é a força motriz para alavancar os resultados do coachee. Assim como o coachee pode não enxergar determinadas saídas para eventuais problemas, nós como coaches também temos nossos pontos cegos. E possibilitar o feedback pode ser o que fará você realmente auxiliar o coachee na conquista. Não subestime a força da vulnerabilidade. Use e abuse da vulnerabilidade, é ela que fortalece a relação coach-cliente.

Regularly checking in during coaching sessions is crucial for maintaining alignment. Reflect on what you've heard by summarizing key points and confirming accuracy, asking, 'Did I get that right?' I also like to ask questions such as, 'Are we heading in the right direction?' or 'Are we focusing on what’s most important to you today?' Additionally, invite feedback by asking, 'Is there anything missing from our session that we haven’t covered yet?' These check-ins ensure the conversation remains relevant and aligned with the client’s needs and priorities.
