Decision Making

Some people struggle with making decisions, but come to a point in life when they decide to do something about it. Others find decision making easy under normal circumstances, but occasionally find themselves in situations where they feel stuck. When making decisions is difficult or nerve-wracking, it can help to meet with an online coach or therapist.

According to some coaches, skills for overcoming indecisiveness can be learnt. There are various techniques and methods of decision making available and it may be just a matter of working out which one suits you. Decisions regarding your personal life often come down to recovering and being guided by your core values and beliefs. Online coaches are used to assisting people to determine what their values are and coaching them to use these values to come to various decisions.

For many coaches, decision-making is the most vital skill they can develop in their clients. There are various questions coaches may use in assisting a person in decision making. These include:

• Where am I now?
• What are my goals?
• How do I get there? What options do I have?
• What resources do I need and how committed am I?

Business coaches and executive coaches help train their clients to become better decision makers.
