Abstract: The present paper intends to focus on determining the key factors of an efficient coaching program. This type of program usually implies several parties, and each, on its own, influences the final effectiveness of the program. When accessing coaching services the client might ask whether he is making the right decision, whether that is the right services supplier for its needs, or not. How can one determine if the coaching session or program was efficient, and how can one determine if the coaching has reached its goals? These are the main issues that this paper intends to explore. After defining the concept of coaching, based on the relevant literature regarding the subject, the author will point out the key factors that determine an efficient coach and the factors that represent the client’s contribution to the effectiveness of the coaching program. The conclusions of this paper will evolve around the necessity to best manage the factors that influence the coaching program, in order to obtain the desired added value within the company, where such programs are acquired for the human capital.
