/coaching isn’t about changing someone else. This is a waste of time — for all involved. Coaching is about working with self-motivated individuals who are willing to think + do differently. Can people improve? Definitely. Will they improve? Maybe. Does their buy-in matter? Hell. Yes.

Three of my favorite coaching Qs👇🏻👇🏻 What do I want to work on? Why is this important? What does success in this conversation look like? 👏🏻👏🏻 Why these Qs? 1) "Talk about" ≠ work on. Coaching is about work... going beneath the surface. Not here to just talk about something. 2) Importance = timing. "Why now" is a way of understanding urgency. Urgency is clarity because it shows us why we can no longer ignore this thing. 3) Success is the aiming point. If we don't know where we want to go, we're missing an opportunity. It's like getting in the car unsure of the destination.

Listened to a Nashville Writers’ Round this evening. It’s amazing how much talent is behind a hit song. Like great organizations with killer products — success is a TEAM sport.

One of my favorite self-/coaching strategies: Five Whys. Next time you need clarity, ask yourself why five times, each "why?" referring back to the previous answer. I suggest writing it or speaking aloud and recording it. Bet your fifth answer is much better than your first.

Recommend!

Cathartic coaching questions are those that allow us to express and unblock emotions so that we can move forward. The most obvious one is: How are you feeling? This can sometimes be hard to answer as it’s so bored. Alternatives: What is giving you energy? What is draining you of energy? Any others?

Sharing this here as an example of self-coaching - a powerful, on demand and free way of accessing coaching. Catalytic questions (like the one I used for myself) are those that provoke action. What catalytic question do you need to ask yourself today? Ps I did the yoga :) https://warpcast.com/jog/0x28c1dccc

If a coach is someone who asks questions that provoke new thinking, what questions have you asked or been asked that have led to a new insight? Here are a couple I like to get the ball rolling: On the receipt of ‘bad’ news: what are 3 reasons why this is a gift? How can you best resource yourself?

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.

As a leader, you want to find the sweet spot between artificial harmony (everyone gets along) and destructive directness (no filter). The ideal is the middle: We’re a direct AND respectful team. Teams that don’t say the hard things, or make it personal, quick — they probably won’t ship well or last v long.
