Fronesis (spelled “phronesis”) is an ancient Greek term that is often translated as “practical wisdom.” It’s one of the key virtues in Aristotle’s ethical thought. Unlike other forms of knowledge that might be more theoretical or abstract, phronesis concerns the ability to make wise decisions and take proper action in specific situations.
For Aristotle, phronesis involves being able to deliberate well about what is good and advantageous for oneself, not in terms of a specific skill but in terms of living a good and fulfilling life. In simple terms, if someone possesses phronesis, they are adept at making sound decisions and judgments in real-life situations, based on their understanding of what is morally right and beneficial for human flourishing.
Phronesis in the context of coaching refers to the application of practical wisdom in guiding clients. As a coach, who embodies phronesis, I am not just relying on theoretical knowledge or pre-set techniques; my style is to draw from a deep well of practical understanding, intuition, and discernment honed from personal experiences and insights, allowing me to tailor my approach to the unique situation and needs of each client.
I believe that every client is unique, and a situation that works for one may not work for another. As a coach my job is to be adept at making decisions tailored to the specific context of the client’s situation.
While theoretical knowledge is essential, I know when to rely on learned techniques and when to adapt or even abandon them based on the intricacies of the situation.
Phronesis often involves a level of intuition, a sense of just “knowing” what the right course of action is, even if it can’t be fully articulated. This intuitive insight is invaluable in my coaching, especially in complex or ambiguous situations.
A coach with phronesis, I recognize the importance of continual personal growth, not just in terms of professional development but also in moral and ethical understanding.
As a coach, I am committed to continuous learning and regularly reflect on my actions, decisions, and outcomes. This reflective practice helps me to learn from every engagement and refine my approach over time.
I am committed to investing the time to deeply understand where each client is coming from, recognize your values, and partner with you in a way that aligns with your personal and ethical beliefs.

In essence, applying phronesis in my coaching is about navigating the delicate balance between learned techniques and personal intuition, always with an eye towards what is ethically right and beneficial for you, the client.
