Coaching vs. Advising:
What’s the Difference and why I recommend both
between coaching and advising—and how both can impact your growth and success.
Coaching
Coaching is the collaborative process where I work with you and your team to unlock potential by guiding you to discover solutions, improve performance, and build critical skills. The focus is on your personal and professional development, empowering you to uncover insights and make meaningful changes.
-
I work to find your own answers through reflective questions and feedback.
-
You and your team set the agenda, and I support you in achieving your goals based on the timeline you are requesting.
-
Coaching is about growth—enhancing skills, behaviors, and mindsets.
Example:
Helping you refine your leadership style by building self-awareness and communication skills through structured conversations.
Advising
Advising is the directive process where I provide actionable strategies and recommendations to tackle your biggest challenges. As your advisor, I analyze your unique needs and offer customized solutions to help you and your team achieve measurable results.
-
I provide clear guidance and proven strategies tailored to your situation.
-
I drive the process by diagnosing challenges and delivering actionable steps.
-
Advising is about achieving specific, tangible results.
Example:
Helping your organization implement the high-performance culture you have been wanting by designing new workflows and engagement strategies.

"Wow and wow! We hired Ryan to keynote our annual Baird & Warner conference, and also do a special session with our top broker associates."
We were all absolutely blown away! He is the easiest speaker to work with in the business and offers so much value that I still have my team coming up to me thanking me for bringing Ryan out! It was the first conference I have attended where I looked around the room during his keynote and no one was looking at their phones, they were all listening to Ryan and taking notes because they didn’t want to miss one thing! Ryan is amazing, engaging and truly cares about making sure he delivers THE best keynote for your conference!
