At the center of your being, you have the answer; you know who you are, you know what you want, and you know what you need to do.
Lao Tzu

Effective coaches constantly choose to use a nondirective approach to coaching and to empowering people to succeed at leading themselves. They have faith that people are capable of improving and finding their own solutions.
The person with more information, responsibility, and investment in their own future is not the coach. The person being coached has more information about herself or himself, their past, present, future, their environment, and their circumstances. The coachee has more responsibility, and she or he puts in more time, more resources, and is more affected by the outcome of their actions than the coach. Therefore, it is logical to let the client set the direction and make his or her own decisions on those things that will impact their lives.
Ken Blanchard, author of Leading at a Higher Level, said,
EMPOWERMENT IS THE PROCESS OF UNLEASHING THE POWER IN PEOPLE, THEIR
KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE, AND MOTIVATION
AND FOCUSING ON THAT POWER TO ACHIEVE
POSITIVE OUTCOMES.”
Empowerment means people have the freedom to decide and to act. It also means they are accountable for their results. The strength of empowerment is self-leadership, the ability and willingness to lead, to take initiative and be proactive—in short, to make things happen. Empowerment, in fact, is what the coach gives to people. Self-leadership is what people exercise in order to make empowerment work.
He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
Lao Tzu
