TitleContracting within the business coaching relationship - a guide and a cautionary tale!
AuthorsFillery-Travis, A.
Abstract

In this white paper we explore the limited research available on contracting - the setting up, use and monitoring of the business coaching relationship. We do not try to develop a standard coaching contract as that would be too constraining for the majority of business coaches- each contract must be customized to the client's requirements. Instead we provide a list of factors that should be considered in developing an effective contact.
