According to François Delivré, the coach must :
- Understand where the customer’s PROBLEM lies in his professional context. This is the expert’s eye.
- Have the skills to CONDUCT coaching, during each session and over time. This is the craftsman’s know-how.
- Getting involved as a PERSON. This is the art of the coach’s personal genius.
Tailored, sensitive support for individuals or companies
