At the heart of the coaching process is the core competency of questioning, often referred to as powerful questioning. Coach educators and trainers diligently teach students the importance of asking questions (versus giving advice) during coaching sessions and teach them to structure questions appropriately (such as using open versus closed-ended questions). Still, coaching students struggle with knowing what questions to ask and when during their work with clients. Although many students search for a list of so-called magic coaching questions, I contend that coaches instead need a framework of questioning to use when coaching a client. A questioning framework could help educators teach the science of questioning as a means for developing coaches’ professional judgment, thereby helping coaches make better-informed choices about what types of questions to ask clients during coaching sessions. This paper presents an evidence-based conceptual framework called the Systemic Questioning Framework. Application of the framework during a coaching conversation may increase the coach’s confidence and competence when making decisions regarding how to shape questions in the moment in response to the client, enabling better coaching outcomes.
