Interviewed for a full time coaching position today and the requirement is 45 live sessions per week (9 30min session/day). Sounds like a recipe for burnout but I’m new to coaching. Can someone tell me if this is an industry norm for full time positions?

That sounds like a lot! Full time coaches I know aren’t anywhere near that - but they’re working for themselves. That seems really excessive and exhausting though. How did you feel about the interview?

That’s what I had guessed too, thanks for your response. I had mixed feelings about the interview because they hadn’t mentioned a specific coaching load until the interview. Felt a little like a bait and switch. 🤔

I wonder about that, but I just accepted a position with that caseload. Im going to discuss the 30 min vs 45 min session idea once I get there.

like

That seems like a lot, but mostly because I don't like 30min sessions. I have a couple of days this week where I have five 50min sessions booked and it will be interesting to see how I feel. I could probably do a couple of days a week with a heavy load like what you described, but not five days a week. May I ask which company this was? I'm looking to sign on with a coaching company and I'm curious what the expectations will be.

I sent you a message (I think)

Our annual reviews are approaching & one of my direct reports has been with us for almost six years w/ little growth. My reco was to let him go & find a stronger, hungrier & more motivated designer at the same level. However, my boss instead wants us to promote him in hopes that will spark some motivation. I am not behind this decision & have voiced my multitude of concerns in promoting an employee who doesn't deserve it. HR is behind the decision! Thoughts on promoting an undeserving report?

Motivation is key when it comes to bettering yourself, your team and your brand. Without self-motivation, you'll be less likely to inspire your team to work together to better your business. Like a muscle, self-motivation becomes stronger the more you use it. Mastering the art of self-motivation will take some time to become a habit. However, with daily practice, you'll not only better yourself and your business, you'll inspire your team to lead more meaningful personal and professional lives.
