What should be done if AI is not helping a client move forward?

When a client feels that AI isn't facilitating their progress, it is essential to explore this situation using open-ended questions. This approach encourages clients to reflect on their experiences and feelings regarding the coaching process and the AI tools being utilized. By asking open-ended questions, the coach creates a safe and supportive environment where the client can share their concerns and insights. This dialogue can help identify barriers to progress, whether they're related to the AI tool itself, the client's engagement with it, or broader issues within their goals or motivation.

This method of inquiry also fosters a collaborative relationship between the coach and the client, emphasizing the importance of the client's voice in the coaching process. Engaging in such discussions allows for the possibility of adjusting the approach or exploring new strategies that may be more effective, thus promoting a sense of autonomy and empowerment for the client.

The other options do not foster progress or support the client's journey. Suggesting that the client give up undermines their motivation, forcing more structure may limit their flexibility and creativity in addressing their goals, and unilaterally changing goals without discussion disregards the client’s agency and can lead to disengagement.
