Definitions: Coaching is… “…unlocking a person’s potential to maximise their own performance; helping them to learn rather than teaching them” Timothy Gallwey “…building awareness, responsibility and self-belief” Sir John Whitmore 6
Definitions: Health Coaching “A behavioural intervention that facilitates participants in establishing and attaining health-promoting goals in order to change lifestyle-related behaviours, with the intent of reducing health risks, improving self-management of chronic conditions, and increasing health-related quality of life.” Van Ryn & Heaney (1997) 6
Shared Decision Making “A process in which clinicians and patients work together to clarify treatment, management or self-management support goals, sharing information about options and preferred outcomes with the aim of reaching mutual agreement on the best course of action”

Directive Non-Directive
Directive v. Non-directive • Directive = “you should try this solution” • Non-Directive = “which solution would work best for you?” 61
Directive • When will you address the issue directly? • What could you do about it? • What do you think the best thing is to do? • Can you describe the situation? Non-Directive 62
Directive transformations Useful principles: • De-personalise – take the ‘subject’ out (or replace ‘you’ with ‘we’) • Start at the Non-Directive side of the spectrum • Provide your own options (Directive questioning) • To generate a Directive question, simply turn the statement directly into a question 66
Directive transformations • “Tell me what you did wrong.” • “I’m starting you on a new drug.” • “You need to have a healthier lifestyle.” • “You’re procrastinating, you should just get on and do it.”
