What am I good at? What career will work for me? What would I love to do? What is my purpose? What am I afraid of? If you are struggling with any of the above questions, you will agree with me that in most cases the answer lies within you. But it is NOT coming to the fore because it is layered under disbelief, fear, anxiety or confusion. Or may be you're overwhelmed because there is just too much at stake - What if I am not able to pay my bills? What if I am judged as a failure? A coach is not a magician who pulls a rabbit out of an empty hat. But he is an expert who knows how to reach to the core within you, pull out the real options and display them in front of your eyes, help you choose the best option, identify relevant actions that will take you closer to your goal, hold you accountable to take actions and finally question you if you leave your lane. The expressions ‘to get the best out of someone’ and ‘your hidden potential’ imply that more lies within the person waiting to be released. Unless a coach believes that people possess more capability than they are currently expressing, they will not be able to help them express it. A coach must think of his people in terms of their potential, not their current performance. #coachingworks #coachingprinciples #executivecoach https://www.instagram.com/p/B-yxl5yFW1o/?igshid=13cie26gzfiue

Socratic questioning technique is used in coaching to raise awareness, promote reflection, and improve problem-solving by participants. The very act of asking someone a question values them and their answer. "If I only TELL, there is no exchange. I might as well be talking to a load of bricks." ‘Coaching’ is one of the six leadership styles identified by Daniel Goleman. 1. Pacesetting - Do it my way 😒 2. Commanding - Do it because I say so 😕 3. Visionary - Let’s remind ourselves of the larger purpose🙄 4. Affiliative - People first, task second 😐 5. Democratic - Let’s work it out together 🙂 6. Coaching - Let me help you develop 🙂 The 'Coaching' Style is most effective when: - The team member acknowledges a discrepancy between where they are and where they would like to be. - Individuals are motivated to take initiative, be innovative, take risks and seek professional development. The Coaching Style is not effective when: - the leader lacks personal credibility or coaching skills, e.g. empathy, emotional intelligence etc. - When individuals are seeking direction and feedback – they will be uncomfortable with the self-management aspect of the coaching style. #coachingprinciples #coachingworks #executivecoaching https://www.instagram.com/p/B-cU5TQl0H1/?igshid=d8s6wehq4ii2

Managers often ask me when they should ‘coach’ and when they should ‘tell’ to get things done from their teams. The answer is quite simple. If TIME is of essence (e.g. in an immediate crisis), doing the job yourself or telling someone else exactly what to do will probably be the fastest way. If the QUALITY of the result matters most, coaching for high performance and responsibility is likely to deliver the most. If maximizing the LEARNING is predominant, clearly coaching will optimize learning and its retention. In most situations in the workplace, time, quality and learning all have some relevance all of the time. The sad truth is that in most businesses, time takes precedence over quality and learning is relegated to a poor third. Is it surprising that managers have such a hard time giving up telling and that business performance falls far short of what it could and should be. A coach, on the contrary, never tells or instructs. A coach always coaches. #coaching #managing #coachingworks #coachingprinciples #executivecoaching #businesscoaching #careertransitioncoaching #certifiedcoaching #coaches Credit: John Whitemore https://www.instagram.com/p/B-SRmg4FG6M/?igshid=gd3euvxxn7ba

You can never achieve an end goal without approaching it via the performance goals. An end goal e.g. to become the market leader, to be appointed sales director, to land a certain key account, to win the gold medal – is seldom absolutely within your own control. You cannot know or control what your competitors will do. An end goal should wherever possible be supported by a performance goal. The end goal may provide the INSPIRATION, but the performance goal defines the SPECIFICATION. A performance goal Identifies the performance level that you believe will provide you with a very good chance of achieving the end goal. It is largely within your control and it generally provides a means of measuring progress. Examples of performance goals might be to achieve six sigma quality, for us to land 5 big accounts next month, or to be able to run a marathon by end of August. Importantly, it is far easier to commit yourself to, and take responsibility for a performance goal, which is within your control, than an end goal, which is not. #coachingprinciples #coachingworks #executivecoaching #businesscoaching #careertransitioncoaching #certifiedcoaching #coaches https://www.instagram.com/p/B97ESZEl_qw/?igshid=1m11zz3y3k2uu

Our beliefs about the capability of others have a direct impact on their performance. Unless coaches believe that people possess more capability than they are currently expressing, they will not be able to help them express it. Coaches must think of his people in terms of their potential, not their performance. In the corporate world, the majority of appraisal systems are seriously flawed for this reason. Since managers are not trained to be coaches, team members are put in performance boxes from which it is hard for them to escape, either in their own eyes or their manager’s. #coachingprinciples #coachingworks #executivecoaching #businesscoaching #careertransitioncoaching #certifiedcoaching #coaches https://www.instagram.com/p/B9vxITUlUaq/?igshid=jn6gd5f29pok

"Coaching is not telling people what to do; it's giving them a chance to examine what they are doing in light of their intentions." If I tell a client (coachee), looking for a new career, that he should be opening a restaurant, it will NOT motivate him to pursue that career. Alternatively, if the client comes up with that conclusion at the end of a systematic career-transition-coaching process (involving inquiry, strengths-identification, pain-storming and SWOT analysis), the client will feel charged up and accountable to follow through. We are inspired to take action in the direction of our dreams ONLY when the motivation comes from within. If you are a professional coach, remember that even if you are a subject matter expert in the area of your client’s business or job, you should resist the temptation to advise. Your job is to help the clients discover for themselves the best course of action so that they are accountable to follow through. #coachingprinciples #coachingworks #executivecoaching #businesscoaching #careertransitioncoaching #certifiedcoaching #coaches https://www.instagram.com/p/B9s1u2tlGQx/?igshid=oeofsbqswc0q

In any job or business, your circumstances are often not in your control. You cannot wish away competition. You cannot change your team overnight. You cannot blame the new regulations (e.g. GST) You cannot avoid a demanding but important customer. You cannot avoid a difficult boss or office politics. But know this: if your purpose is big enough, an unexpected natural ability will flow forth which will guide you to new actions and thereby solutions. A coach often helps you discover that BIGGER PURPOSE and develop a BROADER PERSPECTIVE that makes you bigger than your circumstances thereby enabling you to deal with them confidently. #coachingprinciples #coachingworks #executivecoaching #businesscoaching #careertransitioncoaching #certifiedcoaching https://www.instagram.com/p/B9lSq47Fg2t/?igshid=yzmqsgzc8mhj
