How to Conduct a Successful Chemistry Session

Our 14th episode of Coaching With Mastery and Elegance With Tijen Genco discusses best practices for conducting successful chemistry sessions.

Coaches can feel much pressure around chemistry sessions. We usually have a specific amount of time to get to know the potential client in these sessions and determine if they’re a good fit. This means asking the right questions, understanding the client’s needs and desires, and showing up as our authentic selves. 

Tijen runs us through how she holds a chemistry session and answers questions such as:

How do we understand if a client is a good fit or not?

How do we understand the client’s coachability? (Genco Method has three distinctive qualities to look out for to determine this).

How do we explain what coaching is and what it isn’t?

How do we decide whether or not to offer clients a taste of coaching in a chemistry session?

We discuss the importance of knowing ourselves and our needs and leaving those needs outside of the chemistry session.

We also talk about what Tijen describes as “stretch assignments” and being able to identify the clients that will stretch us and help us grow into our edges.
