Great topic, Brian. I believe executive coaches have tons to offer from their own leadership experiences that may be helpful to clients. The trick is HOW to provide the advice. When the client runs out of possible solutions, I believe the coach should offer advice but without attachment ... i.e. they should be offered as solutions that have worked for others, and then allow the client to decide whether those solutions are workable for him/her. No pressure, no attachment, just ideas to consider.
We should offer advice without attachment
