Coaching is centered on practical, forward-looking approaches and tangible results. Coaches prioritise enhancing functioning skills through tailored interventions, skill development exercises, and affirming positive changes in behavior.

As a benchmark, coaching aims to refine mental processes and establish positive behaviours around EF skills like organisation, time management, task initiation, attentional control, and self-monitoring. Executive functioning coaching helps:

• Identify current barriers and challenges.

• Set goals and expectations of success.

• Teach replacement strategies and behaviors for what’s not working.

• Hold individuals accountable for progress.

• Recognise and celebrate progress.

• Ensuring supports are in place when things don’t go as planned.
