Co-Active Relationship between a Coach and a Client


The relationship between a Consultant and a Client is well defined. A client comes up with issues/problems and asks for the consultant's expertise to provide a resolution to the issues and add value through the insights/innovative ideas that they provide. The relationship between a therapist and a client is also well defined. The client comes up with personal, deep seated issues and the therapist focuses on the issue by going into the past and helping the client heal and make peace with their issues.

The relationship between a co-active coach and client is different. Here's how:

In both the above scenarios, the power or expertise is vested with the consultant/therapist. As a client, you go in with the mindset of acquiring expertise/advice through which you can resolve a problem.

But in a co-active relationship, there is no power or expertise equation. The coach and the client are equal partners with the coach providing the space for the clients to uncover by themselves what they truly want and how they want to go about achieving their dreams.
