What’s the difference between executive coaching and kata coaching?

Kata coaching (or coaching kata, if we want to be closer to the original japanese definition) is a form of coaching people for results.

The word Kata stems from basic forms in martial arts. Some common definitions are: 

•  A way of doing something
• A method
• A routine
• A pattern
• A standard form of movement
• A predefined sequence of movements

Kata coaching is a simple but powerful coaching process. It differs from executive coaching in many ways. Here following, a summary of the main differences based on our experience in projects involving both methodologies. 

We think that a comparison between key points can be more useful than spending thousand words. For any further explanation, please contact us!
