• Listening tends to be more linear and concentrates on content of words.

• The coach’s listening is completely attuned as a learner and listening happens at the logical, emotional, and organic level at one time.

• The listening is linear and non-linear and responses from the coach evidence learning about the client at many levels.

• The coach recognizes both his and the client’s ability of intuitive and energetic perception that is felt when the client speaks of important things, when new growth is occurring for the client, and when the client is finding a more powerful sense of self.
