Coaching is a structured interpersonal method for developing individual capability through guided reflection, goal-setting, and performance feedback. Its parameters are: (1) modality — one-on-one or facilitated small group; (2) duration — time-bound engagement with defined objectives; (3) focus — behavioral change, skill refinement, or goal achievement rather than content delivery; (4) method — Socratic questioning, active listening, and structured feedback loops rather than didactic instruction. The coach facilitates learning and change without delivering content directly, distinguishing coaching from teaching and mentoring.
