We believe that one of the most important aspects of coaching is the generation of new thinking on the part of the coachee. Before we get to focusing on the options that the coachee has, or how they might forward, we need to explore their situation with them and allow them to assess it in an objective and coherent way.

In order to do that we will probably need to challenge the client to engage in some some critical thinking around the thoughts they have already had, what the reality of their situation is, and the viability of all of the options they have available to them. Only then is it going to be useful for the coachee to decide on a way forward.

In this episode we explore the topic of Critical Thinking in the coaching room and give some thought as to how we might best facilitate the coachee engaging with this particular thought process.

Not all change is created equal. Some change is easy and some is hard.

All qualified coaches should be well equipped to support coachees when they are contemplating easy change. When it comes to hard change, coaches adopting straightforward coaching approaches might not cope so well with facilitating this change for coaches who are finding change more of a struggle.

What makes the difference between easy change and hard change is going to depend from coachee to coachee and we have to be agile when approaching the coaching room and what the coachee brings.

Sometimes, we won’t know in the first session that hard change is going to be hard. It may not become apparent until a few sessions down the line, so we have to be ready for that and curious about how we might support the coachee through their difficulty with the change.

In this episode, we explore the differences between easy change and hard change and the power of coaching in facilitating both. In our discussion you will find out why we believe that Transformational Coaching is such a powerful approach to helping coachees, whatever type of change they’re facing.

What is 360 Degree Feedback and how might we use it in the coaching room?

In this episode, Tom shares his wisdom and experience of 360 Degree Feedback, sometimes called Multi-Source Feedback. Tom has been working with this type of report for the last 15 years and has sat alongside hundreds of clients as they have received their feedback.

Tom understands the very human reactions that individuals have to receiving feedback in this way. He has some thoughts on how we can help to facilitate the coaching conversation with clients, supporting them in reviewing the feedback and accepting it in an open and developmental way.

Join us for this fascinating conversation about the role of coaches in the 360 Degree feedback process.
