A topic that comes up time and time again in coaching is boundaries. And it is making a return to the podcast this week. Back in episode 5 we covered this as an area for coaching, and we said we would come back to it again, so here we are, this time hoping to help create a better understanding for our coaching doctors, and, in turn helping coachees to create better boundaries.

In this episode we explore what various different coaching approaches have to offer when it comes to boundaries and how we might, as transformational coaches, demonstrate some agility in moving between the approaches. In this way we may well be able to explore different elements of 'Boundaries' with our coachees and help them to become better at setting and maintaining their own boundaries.

Is anyone really uncoachable?

You may recall Tom saying on a previous podcast that he could have a good coaching conversation with Barack Obama but that he would probably turn down the opportunity to coach the current American president, and that perhaps he is uncoachable.

In this episode we explore this topic more deeply, looking at what might get in the way of someone being coachable at the time that we come to coach them. We also explore whether coaching is right for everyone and whether we can possibly be the right coach for everyone. We also explore whether Tom has softened his stance on coaching the current president or whether he really is uncoachable.

This is our 20th episode focussing on coaching tools, and we thought it would be a good point to have a bit of a review of some of the tools we've covered so far and where to find them.

In this episode we will be refreshing our memories on some of the tools we've talked about already and signposting you to the relevant podcast where you find out more.

If you would like to suggest any other tools you would like us to explore on a future episode, please do get in touch.

This year we launched our Advanced Transformational Coaching Diploma programme and we're now into our fourth iteration of the course. Although the Advanced Diploma programme is just for the graduates of our initial diploma programme, we thought it was worth letting our listeners know how they might move on with their learning once they have completed their first coaching training course with us.

So, if you've studied with us in the past, are doing so currently or have an idea that you might wish to in the future, then this podcast episode is well worth a listen, to gain a flavour of what the advanced course entails and an understanding of why we have developed this additional learning.

So, you've learnt to coach, you've got some tools and techniques under your belt, and you have some experience of coaching. You are putting your coaching offer out there to the world and ready to take on clients. But what does your coaching look like? Do you take an emergent approach to your coaching or do you have a structured coaching programme to offer to potential clients.

Whilst Tom is a very emergent coach, Helen offers a more organised approach to coaching out to the world in the form of a coaching programme. In this episode we share our thoughts on the benefits and possible pitfalls of having a coaching programme and what needs to be considered when putting one together.

How do you see yourself as a coach? A newbie? Experienced? Professional?

However you see yourself, it is likely that your coachees see you in a way that makes sense for them. And whilst there may be some crossover in your perceptions, there may well be some differences. And with those differences may come differing expectations, or even challenges to look out for.

Tom recently saw an article about how coachees might perceive their coach, and thought it would be an interesting conversation to share with you all. So listen in as we explore some interesting, and occasionally odd ideas about how we might be seen as coaches.

Coaching is not something that can be learned by reading or talking about it. Coaching is not something that can be learned by us telling you how it is done, or even demonstrating it for you. Coaching is a practice and it takes practice to become a competent and confident coach.

It's also important that you receive regular feedback on your coaching. This will help you to improve your awareness of what you're doing in the coaching room; both what you are doing well and where you can improve.

In this episode we are talking about our coaching practice groups, what they entail and why you might want to come along, whether you are new to our coaching programme, or took part in one of our earliest cohorts.

Keep an eye out for our emails telling you when our next co-coaching practice groups are happening.
