It consists of a series of questions designed to encourage the Coach to self reflect on their capability and/or confidence in a range of coaching aspects. Following completion of the plan, the coach and NNZ CoachForce /support person identify development priorities. This process will be repeated over the next 2 years to assess progress and development needs.
