What´s a coach?

To me, a coach is someone that has done the path you want to walk and helps you do it better, safer or faster.

Simply.

Interesting. I think in the UK this would be described as mentoring, with a coach not needing to be a subject matter expert, but able to ask insightful questions. I get a sense that the word coach usually implies subject matter expertise in the US. Is that others’ experience?

Yes, I agree with Jo. 
We tend to focus on the sports usage of the term coach, where experience in the subject matter counts. In terms of business or life, that would be referred to as mentoring, indeed. At least, where I live.

Thanks for rescuing this thought from some time ago!

It's an interesting thought. And I like the experience factor. But what I find more interesting is that words have different meaning sometimes. Even in what is deemed to be the same language. Cultural references have a great impact on meaning.
