Listen "# 5 - John Larson on Coaching for Learning and Performance"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the L&P Podcast, I speak with John Larson, the founder and CEO of CoachAccountable, a digital coaching platform designed to make coaches better and help clients get more out of coaching. Half coach, half coder, John has dedicated his life to improving the experience of coaching for coaches and their clients. He lives in Denver, Colorado with his wife and kids.

What coaches do (and don't do)
The role of coaching in facilitating learning and performance
John's journey into coaching and building CoachAccountable
The shortcomings of many coaching conversations
The importance of goals, metrics, action plans, and session notes
What makes for an effective coach
And much more...
