What Should Be Included in a Session Note?


Coaching notes (and the sharing thereof) make a formidable pillar of a coaching strategy: good coaching is made net better when its fruits are efficiently captured for review and reinforcement.  They needn’t be a lot of work to create, either: 2 or 3 sentences to recap the current situation going in, and 3 or 4 bullet points of key insights and distinctions are sufficient to distill the real nuggets of an hour long conversation.

Actions Automatically Attached

If you created some Actions for your client around the time of the session, CoachAccountable will ask if you'd like to append those Actions onto the note. Their names and respective due dates will show at the bottom if you choose to append them. 

Note: you'll need to create the Actions before marking the Session Note complete. If you've already marked it complete, those Actions won't be attached. 

Editing a Session Note

If you need to make a change, no problem. Go to the client's Session Notes tab and hover over a note. You'll see several icons come up, including the one to Edit.

Deleting a Session Note
