How to Coach Yourself and Others Popular Models for Coaching | Page 184

If the end point of producing an action plan has been reached,
the experience of trying it out could be the starting point for a
follow-up mentoring/co-mentoring session. The work would
start in stage I again, telling a new story. If an action plan had
not been reached, that's fine too, and the model can be used
over a series of sessions.
The key in using the model, as with any theory or model, is to
keep the speakers agenda central, the individual in the
foreground and theory in the background, and to use the model
for the person, rather than vice versa.

Evaluation
In addition to Explore, Understand & Act skills evaluation of the
therapy process is also important. It can take place at the end of
each session as a summarization, whenever appropriate. It helps
the coachee understand what ground they have gone over, helps
them perceive progress they have made and inspires them with
understanding on how they want to move forwards.
