78: What Does a Coach Really Do? Coaching Psychology | Jonathan Passmore

What does a coach actually do, and what makes coaching valuable? Professor Jonathan Passmore joins me to explore coaching psychology, accountability and the future of coaching.

At the time of this December 2021 conversation, Jonathan was Senior Vice President of Coaching at CoachHub and Professor of Coaching and Behavioural Change at Henley Business School. A chartered psychologist, he brings a research-informed perspective to coaching practice.

We discuss:
• What a typical coaching session looks like
• Why seeking coaching can be a strength
• The coach’s role as an accountability partner
• Whether to stay with the same coach over time
• The potential role of AI in coaching
