The way I measure progress for my clients is by having them set clear goals at the start our coaching relationship. Once their aim is clear, I then help them to break their goal into milestones. These are classed as bitesized mini goals they feel motivated to achieve. I then ask them to decide on a date that they'd like to achieve the milestone by. This adds accountability and a deadline to work towards. I Any coach should return to actions their client has agreed to complete. This means checking in with them each time they meet. 'Remind me of your goal. Has anything changed?' for example. It's also so important to celebrate wins along the way. As a coach, I have to remind my clients of the progress they've made and I always encourage them to reward themselves once they've achieved a milestone. This builds self-confidence and increases motivation to go on and achieve the big goal.
