What qualities do I need to be a successful coach?

Being an effective coach is obviously a given. Being good at coaching will mean you establish positive feedback from your clients and from that you can build your practice. In respect to personality qualities, effective coaches like people, are curious about people′s lives, have confidence, and good communication skills.

To have a prosperous practice you will need a variety of other business skills. Many coaches find this challenging. And being a really great coach but not placing enough attention on business building can mean that you will end up having to move out of coaching.
