How coachable are you? Have you ever wondered? It does not just know whether you’d benefit from hiring a business coach. Instead, coachability comes down to having the flexibility to grow and the humility to be taught, whether that’s through an online course or a one-on-one mentorship program.
Being coachable isn’t a leadership skill often discussed, but it’s crucial if you want to become the best possible version of yourself. Here’s what you need to know.
What does it mean to be coachable? I’ve used this “How Coachable are You?” statement list to help my clients determine whether they’re ready and willing to change.
Not everyone is coachable. Some people think they desire to learn but are stuck in their ways. Some people don’t want to make time for the inner work that needs to be done. Some people don’t care enough to be disciplined about improving themselves. These people don’t tend to be outstanding business leaders, at least not for long.
So, how coachable are you? Do you have potential? These questions can help you find out.
Suppose you can answer “yes” to most of the questions above; Congratulation! You’re coachable.
Don’t worry; if not, you’re not a lost cause. Coachability you’re achieved through time, introspection, and changing circumstances. Continue to be honest with yourself about your discipline and potential blind spots, then revisit this quiz in a few months. You might be surprised to see how things have changed.
