It depends upon elements such as: the service, the number of participants, the desired outcomes of the program, the length and number of sessions, the materials and the topics. Coaching has pretty much set pricing and packages, where consulting and facilitation tend to be customized to the organizational or team needs. Let’s go with “a fair and agreed to price”.

Here's what you can generally expect during a Discovery Call:

• Introductions: getting to know each other

• Understanding the organization/person: framework and elements and current challenges and aspirations

• Consultant’s background: methods, values and areas of expertise
