There are many different styles that a leader can adopt and one size rarely fits all. So what are the key traits of leaders who adopt a coaching style?

1. They are great listeners.
2. They help others to solve their own problems.
3. They use questions to deepen understanding.
4. They don’t fix everything personally.
5. They encourage balanced risk taking.
6. They are supportive.
7. They empower.

I wonder what other traits you would add. Why not leave a comment with your ideas?
