Abstract: The aim of this pilot study is to analyze the impact of life coaching sessions on the behavior of future entrepreneurs from Romania. We conducted a qualitative research to which we applied a focus group, followed by a series of life coaching sessions. Life coaching sessions helped the young Romanian entrepreneurs to alter their behavior in the sense that they gained confidence in themselves and took steps towards starting a business. This study has the ambition of being a relevant contribution to this field, given that no such study has been conducted in Romania. The study sheds light on the way in which life coaching can alter the behavior of future entrepreneurs, helping them to better establish and attain business objectives.
