Leadership is a curious topic. It is most noted in its absence and most measured by its need. Leadership requires opportunity. The situation drives leadership; what worked in one situation may be disastrous in another. It requires skills to be able to direct the challenge at hand. Leadership is both an art and a science. It is theoretical and applied, cultural and contextual. Most importantly, leadership is about accomplishment and results.

They actively discourage coaches from learning how to market and sell, as if those skills somehow taint the purity of coaching. That advice is wrecking coaching businesses. You were probably told that great coaching sells itself. That if you just do good work, clients will come.
