Mastering the Art of Coaching Presence: A Self-Assessment Toolkit

What Separates Good Coaches from Great Ones?

It’s not the techniques. It’s not the frameworks. It’s coaching presence.

Imagine this: You’re in a coaching session. Your client is navigating a tough decision.

You’re fully present, attuned to their words, emotions and even the silence. You’re not rushing to fix or solve. Instead, you create space where insights unfold naturally and your client feels deeply seen, heard and resilient.

That’s the power of coaching presence.

It’s the art of being fully engaged, adaptive and attuned to your client in the moment. It’s also the skill most coaches struggle to master consistently.

The “Mastering the Art of Coaching Presence: A Self-Assessment Toolkit” is here to change that.

Coaching Presence: Simple in Theory, Transformational in Practice

We all know what it’s like in those magical sessions where we are fully present and everything flows.

But if we’re honest, staying present isn’t always easy.

There are days when:

  • Your mind races ahead to the “perfect” next question.
  • You replay another conversation while your client shares something vulnerable.
  • You second-guess yourself, losing the flow of the session.

Coaching Presence isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being aware.

That’s why I created this toolkit-to help you assess where you are, discover what’s holding you back and grow into the coach your clients truly need. 

What Makes This Toolkit Different?

This isn’t just a checklist. It’s a reflection tool and a practical resource designed to meet you wherever you are in your coaching journey.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • The Self-Assessment Framework
    20 reflective statements that go beyond surface-level skills, challenging you to examine the moments where your coaching truly shines and where it falters.

  • Development Suggestions
    Practical, real-world strategies tailored to your current level, whether you’re just starting out or on the path to mastery.

  • A Progress Tracker
    Keep tabs on your growth, celebrate your wins and adjust your strategies over time.

  • The Reflection Guide
    Thought-provoking questions that reveal what’s really driving your coaching presence and what’s standing in the way.

As well as aligning with the ICF Core Competencies this toolkit is built on real coaching experiences, blending learning and insights from my 25 years of working with thousands of coaches and leaders across the globe.

Why Coaching Presence Changes Everything

Presence is the secret ingredient that makes coaching transformational.

Without it, even the best tools and techniques aren’t effective.

With it, you can:

  • Build a deep sense of trust so your clients feel safe to explore their deepest challenges.
  • Hold space for breakthroughs that leave clients saying, “I’ve never had this much clarity”.
  • Deal with intense emotions or silence without feeling unbalanced.

Who Is This Toolkit For?

This is for coaches who are ready to move beyond “good enough.”

Whether you’re just starting to explore coaching presence or refining your mastery, this toolkit will help you:

  • Identify your unique strengths.
  • Overcome the distractions that pull you away from the moment.
  • Show up more authentically and powerfully for your clients.
