<tr><td colspan="2"> </td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; color:black; font-size: smaller;"><div><ins style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">In an early article on coaching, Evered and Selman spoke about the origin of the word "coach" in the following way: “The word coach was first used in the modern sense of a sports coach in the 1889's, referring specifically to one who trained a team of athletes to win a boat race. Beginning in the 1840’s, the word coach was used colloquially at Oxford University to refer to a private versus a university tutor who prepared a student for an examination. But the very first use of the word coach in English occurred in the 1500's to refer to a particular kind of carriage. It still does. Hence the root meaning of the verb "to coach": to convey a valued person from where he or she is to where he or she wants or needs to be (Evered & Selman, 1989, ''Coaching and the art of management''. Organizational Dynamics, 12(5), 16 -30.p. 16).</ins></div></td></tr>

A consultant usually is a specialist in a given area. They are hired to give advice and provide solutions. A consultant usually works with a client to solve a particular problem. Once the problem is solved, the consultant leaves. Coaching uses a more holistic approach. Working alongside the client over a period of time, the coach has a clear focus, examines the current situation, creates a vision and plan of action, and works side by side with the client until both are successfully implemented or achieved.</ins></div></td></tr>
