I learned that although there are no guarantees with regards to students' clicking with their coach, there are several strategies coaches can employ to ensure students have as many tools as they need to succeed in their goals and career outlook. It's all about setting yourself (the coach) and the student up for success, whatever that may look like for each situation. One of the most important steps in career coaching is being an active listener and demonstrating that you can accurately assess what the student's goals are and how to arrive there using whatever tools/resources are available at the time.
