Finding great coaching questions is more elusive than one might think. A great question has to be intriguing; it has to encourage deeper thinking; it has to serve as an effective springboard into creative problem solving; it has to\n engender optimism and realism. There are many hundreds of great coaching questions, but those questions tend to be hidden. You usually need the help of a coach to bring them out at the appropriate time and in the appropriate way.\n And you need a coach to help you take the time to consider the questions so that you arrive at useful answers.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
