How Chicago works
Clients start with an intake, and the practice replies with coach options within 2 to 3 business days. The first session is a story session about the client's work and education history. Next, the coach and client define goals and check that they are realistic, actionable and measurable. They use reflection activities and assessments that look at drivers, preferred behaviors and how the client works on a team. Later sessions focus on putting the plan into action. Clients can extend this stage and keep periodic coaching for accountability.
