Coaching Readiness Self-assesment

Coaching Readiness: A Self-Assessment Practice for Conscious Leadership Development

This Coaching Readiness Self-Assessment is a reflective practice designed to help you pause, look inward, and honestly explore one essential question:

Am I truly ready to engage in a meaningful coaching process—now?

Rather than explaining what coaching is, this practice invites you to examine how you show up to growth, change, and personal responsibility. It gently yet clearly explores the inner conditions that make coaching effective: openness, commitment, presence, willingness to act, and readiness to tell yourself the truth.

Rooted in heart-based creative leadership, this self-assessment supports you in observing:

• your relationship to change and self-reflection.
• your capacity to align what you think, feel, and do.
• your willingness to take responsibility for your development.
• your readiness to invest time, energy, attention, and care in becoming more of yourself.

This is not a test, and there are no “right” answers.

It is a mirror.

The value of this practice lies in your honesty, not in performance. Whether you discover a clear yes, a thoughtful not yet, or something in between—each outcome is meaningful and useful. Coaching works best when readiness is conscious.

This self-assessment is especially supportive if you:

• sense a gap between where you are and where you want to be.
• feel called to develop your leadership from the inside out.
• are curious about the heart as more than a biological organ.
• want to engage in coaching with clarity, integrity, and intention.

You may use this practice:

• as preparation before entering a coaching process
• as a grounding reflection when considering change
• as a self-leadership checkpoint at a moment of transition

Take your time. Read slowly. Notice what resonates—and what resists.

Your answers are already teaching you something important.
