When coaching during 1-on-1 meetings, remember to focus on asking the right questions that help your team gain clarity and confidence. Consider the "flashlight" approach: your questions should illuminate the problem and guide them toward their own solutions. Incorporate the 4 C's—Clarity, Compassion, Conviction, and Confidence—to help your team navigate challenges and grow independently. Regularly reflect on your coaching style and experiment with these techniques to foster more effective and empowering conversations. https://lnkd.in/egaeXkUw

Direct communication is a skill that sets exceptional coaches apart from the rest. It’s about transcending the role of a directive authority figure and becoming a compassionate observer. When you communicate directly, you cease to be the “know-it-all” coach. Instead, you adopt the role of a curious friend, a compassionate listener, and a perceptive observer. You’ll learn to state your observations and intuitions from a neutral standpoint and invite your client to participate actively in the conversation. Imagine a coaching session with a client who’s struggling to achieve their goals. A directive approach might involve saying, “You’re lagging behind on your goals; you need to do more.” In contrast, a powerful direct approach would sound like, “I’ve noticed that over the last few conversations, you haven’t been able to follow through on your commitments. What do you think might be happening here?” Direct communication is the cornerstone of trust-building in coaching relationships. It’s about creating an atmosphere where your clients feel safe to share, explore, and grow. When you’re direct with your clients, it feels like you’re a compassionate friend who genuinely cares about their progress. Your words aren’t delivered as judgments from an authoritarian figure. Visualize a coaching session where a client grapples with self-doubt. A directive approach might involve saying, “You need to believe in yourself more.” However, a direct approach would sound like, “I’ve noticed moments when you doubt your abilities. How does this self-doubt impact your progress?” So, I invite you to reflect on this question: How can you shift from being the "know-it-all" coach to a compassionate observer in your coaching sessions? 👇 Keep playing your infinite game, Coach Sid #coaching #coach #personalgrowth #growthmindset #wellness
