FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT EXECUTIVE COACHING
Q. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COACH AND A MENTOR?
A. A mentor draws on their own experience to give you advice. A coach works with you to surface your own answers by unpacking the mental models, patterns, and blind spots that shape how you lead. Both belong in a leader’s support network, and they serve different purposes at different moments.
Q. WHO DOES REBOOT WORK WITH?
A. Since 2014, Reboot has coached thousands of leaders, including startup founders from seed stage to IPO, executives at Fortune 100 companies, venture investors, managers at every level, solopreneurs, artists, and non-profit leaders.
Q. HOW DOES A REBOOT COACHING ENGAGEMENT WORK?
A. One-on-one coaching contracts run month-to-month, and rates vary with the length and cadence of sessions. A typical engagement includes two 60- or 80-minute sessions per month, with access to your coach between sessions.
Q. HOW DO I CHOOSE THE RIGHT COACH?
A. Fit matters more than credentials alone. When you reach out, we’ll learn about your situation and match you with coaches whose backgrounds and styles suit what you’re working through. Most clients meet with a prospective coach before committing, and chemistry in that first conversation tells you a great deal.
Q. WHERE DOES REBOOT OFFER COACHING?
A. Reboot coaches leaders worldwide, and sessions happen virtually or in person depending on what works for you. We have strong local networks in San Francisco, New York City, Denver, Portland, and London. However, location does not limit who we can work with.
Q. WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT FROM EXECUTIVE COACHING?
A. Clients report clearer decision-making, stronger relationships with their teams and boards, healthier responses to stress and conflict, and a leadership style that feels like their own. Because coaching addresses root patterns, the changes hold up over time, well beyond any single engagement.
