Coaching Models Overview

I utilize the following coaching models to support growth, transformation, and results.

 

GROW Coaching Model

Goal • Reality • Options • Will

The GROW model is one of the most widely used coaching frameworks. It helps individuals set and achieve goals through a structured, four-stage process.

First, the Goal stage involves defining a clear and specific objective. This goal should align with the client’s values and long-term vision.

Next, the Reality stage assesses the client’s current situation. It focuses on identifying obstacles and understanding any limiting beliefs that may be holding them back.

In the Options phase, the coach and client explore different strategies and possible solutions to move forward.

Finally, the Will stage supports the client in committing to an action plan. This step ensures accountability and motivation to follow through.

This approach encourages clarity, self-awareness, and steady momentum toward success.

 

CLEAR Coaching Model

Contracting • Listening • Exploring • Action • Review

The CLEAR model offers a flexible yet structured framework that guides clients through both personal and professional transformation.

It begins with Contracting, where the coach and client set the objectives and expectations for the coaching relationship.

In the Listening phase, the coach actively listens, creating a foundation of trust and understanding.

The Exploring stage includes deep questioning and reflection. This helps uncover limiting beliefs and potential opportunities for growth.

Action follows, where the client builds a practical, step-by-step plan for progress.

The final stage is Review, which supports accountability by tracking progress, refining strategies, and maintaining long-term results.

The CLEAR model is especially effective for clients seeking deep, lasting change.

 

OSCAR Coaching Model

Outcome • Situation • Choices • Actions • Review

The OSCAR model is a solution-focused approach centered on creating positive change and clear, actionable outcomes.

It starts with Outcome, where the client defines what they want to achieve and sets a clear vision for success.

Situation assesses the current reality, identifying strengths, challenges, and available resources.

During the Choices phase, the client explores different strategies and paths forward.

In the Actions stage, the focus shifts to setting specific steps and making firm commitments.

Lastly, Review helps track progress, celebrate achievements, and make any necessary adjustments.

This model is especially useful for staying solution-oriented and driving results.
