Coaching on Skype

An IT firm has offered to publish my experience of coaching clients using Skype. It certainly scores over telephone coaching. Over the traditional phone I can't see any body language, and the necessary silences which take place during a session are less meaningful and can be misinterpreted. Skype enables client and coach to see each other (free!). So even if we are continents apart and we would never meet in the flesh, the visual with all its NLP implications still feeds into formulation of goals and getting the client to commit to a pathway to dreams-come-true.
