This chapter acknowledges that there is sometimes a place for beginning the coaching relationship with a specific goal, but it suggest ways in which coaches and mentors can take a more pragmatic and effective approach to establishing and working with goals across the range of situations that arise in the complex arenas of life and work. It presents dialogues on this topic with coaches in several countries and continents, a number of issues have surfaced as they pertain to goals. These include: managing client and sponsor expectations about goals, goal feasibility is, negotiating goals with the sponsor or client's line manager, how to keep the focus sufficiently broad and flexible, where needed and how to feel comfortable in the coaching role, without specific goals to lean on. Instead of trying to pin the learner down immediately to a specific goal, the effective coach or mentor in this scenario facilitates an exploration from a much wider horizon.
