Coaching operations

The problems that arrive with the second coach.

A coaching business changes shape when it stops being one person. These are the operational problems that arrive as it does — written to be usable on their own, not as an argument for buying something.

What earns a guide here.

Most software companies publish whatever their keyword tool returns, and the result is a library of articles that restate the product brochure at greater length. We would rather publish less.

A topic earns a page here when two things are true at once: the answers currently available to a reader are genuinely poor, and we have something true to say that those answers do not. If the useful part of a guide only works for customers, it is an advertisement and does not belong on this list. Every checklist here should be runnable by somebody who never speaks to us.

That standard keeps this list short on purpose. It will grow when a topic clears the bar and not before.
