What are the key components of the GROW framework and how can they lead to meaningful progress in coaching sessions?

The GROW framework consists of four key components: Goal, Reality, Options, and Way Forward. The 'Goal' component involves setting clear objectives for what the individual or team wants to achieve. The 'Reality' component involves assessing the current situation and identifying any obstacles or challenges. The 'Options' component involves exploring potential solutions or strategies to achieve the goal. The 'Way Forward' component involves committing to actionable steps to implement the chosen solution or strategy. By following this structured approach, coaching sessions can lead to meaningful progress as it ensures that discussions are focused, solutions-oriented, and tied to actionable steps.
