Amazed by Co-active Coaching’s fresh insight through my own lens: treating level 3 listening like meditation, turning curiosity into powerful questions (wrote a formula of this), viewing emotions as data, not a symptom. I’m grateful for these insight and strategies. Hope to incorporate them to my daily routine.
Reading “Coaching Hacks” has given me a fresh perspective on essential coaching skills. 📚 I’m committed to daily practice, recognizing that improving as a coach is a lifelong journey. 🌱 It’s exciting to use AI tools to reinforce these skills - a great way to blend traditional learning with new technology. 🤖💡
The coaching process unfolds through seven key domains: identifying the ideal vision, understanding the PEA, cultivating mindfulness, hope, and empathy, invoking PEA, fostering a quality relationship, embracing the coaching culture, and recognizing coachable moments. By focusing on these areas, you can build a long-lasting and mutually beneficial coaching relationship. The book “Helping People Change” offered so many great insights, it’s definitely worth reading! Here is my notes to future myself.
Effective coaching is essential for bringing the coachee’s potential to the surface. I found the 1-2-3-4 combination method to be helpful and have created a framework for myself to fall back on should I deviate from coaching questions. I plan to practice this framework iteratively and deliberately, listening for the trigger to ask a coaching question. Additionally, I found both books, ‘The Coaching Habit’ and ‘Developing Coaching Skills’, to be significantly helpful in crafting and adhering to the best practices of coaching questions.
This year, I’m dedicated to improving my coaching skills by carefully selecting a few recommended books to guide my development. I plan to thoroughly read, re-read, and take detailed notes to distill their concepts and techniques into an easily accessible format. My goal is to use these insights on a daily basis to refine my coaching abilities iteratively.
