A coach helps you by offering structure, insight, and accountability.

Structure: often something that is lacking in today’s hectic multi-tasking, fully wired (and now wireless) world. Structure in a coaching sense provides stability for decision-making just as a frame does for a building.

Insight: is that wonderfully clarifying component of outside assistance that too often is not available from those who are closest to us. The bias of friends and family and the politics of colleagues make it difficult for them to provide an accurate reflection of our thoughts and actions. A good coach however, is trained to minimize the impact of bias while calling on his/her personal experience to help you sort through your thoughts, emotions and circumstances. (e.g. Coach Corson has more than a dozen years of experience in business management at various levels as well as an MBA, but Glenn also has experience as a university instructor… this background adds value to the dialogue during your coaching sessions.)

Accountability: this somewhat intimidating word is actually just a means for ensuring that you have support in pursuing the objectives you’ve set for yourself. By sticking to a regular schedule of coaching sessions (structure), your coach can help you remain accountable to yourself, the very person we often neglect the most (ourselves).
