Coaching typically begins with a personal interview to assess the individual's current opportunities and challenges, define the scope of the relationship, identify priorities for action, and establish specific desired outcomes. Subsequent coaching sessions may be conducted in person or using online technology, with each session lasting a previously established length of time. Between scheduled coaching sessions, the individual may be asked to complete specific actions that support the achievement of his or her personally prioritized goals. The coach may provide additional resources in the form of relevant articles, checklists, assessments, or models to support the individual's thinking and actions. The duration of the coaching relationship varies depending the individual's personal needs and preferences."
