PAGE #1, LEARNING OBJECTIVES

[1] Giving feedback is very important during the coaching, in particular giving
POSITIVE FEEDBACK as an element of encouragement
But this is also about RECEIVING feedback, and we talk more about this in module #2

[2] Key elements of coaching are LISTENING, Asking Powerful QUESTIONS
We will talk about influencing others as part of the "MBTI for coaches" module
where we learn the different communication requirements and preferences

[3] => This is around empathy. Empathy is another key element of good coaching
Effective coaches are able to put themselves in another person’s shoes, rather than judging an individual solely on the basis of surface behaviors. This also implies understanding the family or personal lives of employees.

[4] We will learn a feedback model including a 4-step process
We will also learn different coaching models like the Skill/Will matrix, the GROW model and dealing with emotions
.
PAGE #3, "Introduction"

Participant discussion to warm up to the topic –

=> Have you thought deeply about the term coaching?

PAGE #4, "What is Coaching?"

=> Difference between teaching and coaching.
- Teaching is giving instruction and his/her way of working to be followed.

- The students learn to think like teachers.

- This will show initial benefit however in the long run the students need to think for themselves to be successful.

- What it takes to maximize ones performance… becoming AWARE of one’s strength and weak\ness

-Coaching is raising awareness and highlights the unique attributes of body and mind.

- It builds one's ability and confidence to improve without another’s perception.

- It builds self reliance, self-belief/confidence and self-responsibility.

- Giving one freedom to develop their own style keeping in mind the objectives.

- With awareness comes sense of responsibility
.

Makes the solutions proposed meaningful and relevant to him/her

=> How to listen effectively?
- Let the individual tell his/her story, or share reaction first;
it will help you focus the discussion

- FOCUS ON THE OTHER PERSON (and not the conversation in your head)
- words, feelings, and underlying intent

- Put your own emotions aside and do not be critical

- Constantly check your understanding with the individual, through restatement –
Avoiding assumptions flavoured by personal perceptions.

.
PAGE #12 "The Impact of powerful questions"

=> Asking powerful questions

=> Coaching is often much more about the questions you ask than the answers you give.

=> It’s not the coach’s role to give answers;
it’s the coach’s role to ask powerful questions.

=> And the best type of question is the one that can create an insight for the coachee.

=> In a world where answers are everywhere,
within 10 seconds you could type question onto Google and answers come.

=> The answers become a commodity.

=> So this is where coaches can really prove their value:
the ability to ask great questions is the only thing that Google can’t tell you.

=> Google can’t tell you which question to ask in order to get the answer.
So that’s why this skill is really such a fundamental

.
PAGE #16 "The Feedback Model: A 4-Step process"

=> In giving feedback, balance telling and asking –

=> It is the mirroring of data to the coachee, it has to be fact based.
.
