We\u2019ve all had coaches at one time or another. Some we were assigned (like in sports), and some we picked ourselves. Some were awesome, and some may have fallen a bit flat on our expectations. Picking the right coach is both an art and science, and we\u2019re here to tell you, through one woman\u2019s story, how she picked her coach.<\/p>\n
Enter Elena Margolies. Elena is a 45-year-old mother of two boys. One is in first grade and the other is in sixth grade. Her first grader has mild autism, and her sixth grader is, literally, a genius. Think Doogie Howser. Elena is a single mother whose entire focus is her boys. She works in a law firm but has been through many struggles \u2013 at both ends of the spectrum \u2013 with her children. All of this leaves little time for Elena.<\/p>\n
Her house is stressful 7 days per week and Elena decided to get some coaching to help with her executive functioning skills so she could better manage the plethora of schedules that fill her days. The first coach she spoke with wasn\u2019t the one for her because he didn\u2019t understand at all what she went through. The second coach was better but because she was older and not far from retirement, Elena felt the trials and tribulations of a single mother with a special needs child \u201cfell flat on this coach\u2019s ears\u201d. Finally, Elena decided to change her tactic and went to an organization the learn about what type of coach she really needed and, more importantly, how to find that person.<\/p>\n
Here are some tips that are traditionally given to find the right coach and maintaining the right chemistry with that coach. And remember, there is no right or wrong to choosing your coach. It\u2019s really all about the understanding, chemistry, and your ability to work cohesively with that person that makes all the difference in the world. And while these do work, there is a much easier way. Read on to find out what it is.<\/p>\n
