Abstract

Although a proliferation of coaching in health care has demonstrated positive outcomes and implications for both health care providers and patients, there is little consensus regarding effective coaching models used to educate and train clinicians. To address this issue a model known as The Funnel of Optimal Functioning was created and used to help clinicians learn and embed coaching skills into clinical practice. The model is founded on principles and theory of optimal functioning, as well as the neuroscience and neurobiology of language. The funnel provides a framework that enables clinicians to assess their client’s emotional state and respond with the most appropriate strategic and dialogic coaching tools and skills to facilitate optimal functioning across various health care settings and contexts.
