TVoL: Coaching as Leadership: The Difference Between Giving Advice and Coaching

from EyeCode Media · host Christopher Wolfe, OD, FAAO, Dipl. ABO

In this episode, we take an honest look at one of the habits many of us developed long before we ever became leaders; the instinct to give advice. For years I believed that being helpful meant having the answer. But what I’ve learned is that constantly giving advice may solve a momentary problem while quietly creating long-term dependence. Coaching, on the other hand, invites people to think, to grow, and to take ownership of their own solutions. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from being the person everyone comes to for answers or frustrated that the same problems keep showing up in your practice, this conversation will challenge the way you lead and offer a different path forward.
