CoachStation Pre-Coaching Self-Assessment

A practical diagnostic to help you see where you are, and explore your goals, direction and self-awareness prior to begining your coaching and mentoring program.

Before You Begin

This is a self-awareness and coaching preparation questionnaire. It is not a test — there are no right or wrong answers. Your responses are a reflection tool designed to help you and your CoachStation coach get the most from your coaching program from the very first session.

Answer and respond as openly and honestly as you feel comfortable. The more context you share, the more personalised and useful your coaching experience will be.

There are 4 steps to complete this assessment:

1 Sign Into CS CoachBot. Open our AI CS CoachBot support tool and sign in, accessible and embedded at the bottom of this page.
2 Complete the self-assessment. Work through all sections below. Take your time. Thoughtful responses lead to a more meaningful coaching experience.
3 Save your responses for your own records (optional). Click "Copy My Responses" and paste into a Word document, OneNote, or similar. This is for your personal use only — you do not need to send this to your coach.
4 Generate your AI prompt. Click "Copy AI Prompt", open CS CoachBot below, paste using Ctrl+V or Cmd+V, and press Enter. The prompt contains everything CoachBot needs — no other steps required.

What do you most want to achieve or improve through this program?

Strengths & Drivers
What do others come to you for? Where do you naturally excel?
What gives you energy, purpose, or a sense of meaning?
Current Challenges
Be as open as you're comfortable with — this is for reflection, not evaluation.

What is CS CoachBot?

CS CoachBot is your private, on demand leadership reflection partner. It has been trained on CoachStation frameworks, language, and coaching principles, so its responses align with how we work in sessions. Between our coaching sessions, it gives you a structured way to think more deeply, test assumptions, and sharpen your insight without waiting for the next time we meet.

This is an ideal time to use CS CoachBot to explore your questionnaire responses. It helps you move beyond surface answers, identify patterns, and clarify where your next development focus should sit before we meet again. Once you have generated your prompt above, open CS CoachBot, paste it in, and press Enter to receive your personalised coaching snapshot.

After receiving your initial response in CS CoachBot explore further by following the questions CoachBot suggests and/or ask at least 2 more questions to delve and explore even further.
