A successful career coach does not repremand or judge students for their actions. They provide a safe space for student to feel welcomed, listend to, understood and supported. The GROW model which allows the student to take responsibility for their success while still feeling supported is a fantastic way to establish a strong relationship with each student while still taking the correct steps towards their goal. While ensuring the student feels heard is important, a career coach must also implement the SNIP model to provide feedback to their student in a constructive and receptive way, rather than pointing out the student's mistakes and having the student feel repremanded.
