Who is a Coach and a Mentor?
Who is a Coach and a Mentor?
Being a leader means wearing different hats based on the requirements of the situations. As part of this course, we looked at two such roles, the role of a coach and that of a mentor. Part two of this learning phase began with developing an understanding of the six principles of leadership coaching.Â
We then looked at who can be a coach, the role of a coach, who can be a coach and some of the models of coaching. We also did a comparative analysis of the different models of coaching.

As a leader, one of the most important thing to keep in mind is the body language. Body language can either be a conversation starter or create a block between a coach and a coachee. A coach also needs to be mindful of the language they use, paraphrase, be non judgemental, be assertive yet respectful, and give balanced and specific feedback.

While all the coaching models revolve around the basic tenets of setting context, identifying the problem, brainstorming solutions and laying out an action plan, some models also include a further check in stage. GROW being the most popular model due to its simplicity, due to the lack of a feedback stage, it can sometimes not be enough in itself. In such situations, using a similar yet slightly descriptive model, such as the CLEAR model can be helpful.
