What is the difference between coaching, consulting and counseling?
Counselors help us to reconcile our past, coaches help us achieve future success and consultants are project-based experts.
Coaches help an already generally well-functioning person to reach a higher level of success. Coaches also help client's leverage their strengths and develop themselves in ways that bring greater success and satisfaction in their business or in their personal life. The aim of coaching is generally to achieve excellence and greater success. Coaching is conducted or over the telephone or in-person and is client driven.
Counselors generally deal with emotional or behavioral difficulties and past painful situations. The aim in counseling is to bring the client to normal functioning. Sessions are usually conducted in-person and are driven by the counselor.
Consultants are experts in their field. They draw on their experience to manage projects. They make recommendations and are directive. Some consultants are retained on an ongoing basis by companies or organizations; others work on a project only basis.
How does this work?
I usually coach by telephone, eliminating geographic boundaries and allowing me to work with someone who may be many miles, states or countries away. I work with people on a regularly scheduled weekly call for 50-55 minutes.
I also do group coaching through teleconferences via telephone bridge line that provides a practical and cost effective option for groups.
