It's International Coaching Week! 🎉 Every day this week, I'm reposting an article from my series "All About Coaching" which will answer your most burning questions! 🔥 Whether you're a coachee, HR professional, manager, or coach ... have you ever heard this? ❗️ “If this employee doesn’t improve after your coaching, I’m firing them!” ❗️ “Trust and confidentiality? That sounds like therapy, not coaching!” ❗️“I want to meet with you to discuss my goals for this employee.” ❗️ “I need you to help this employee get better at [insert skill or knowledge here].” I've heard these phrases.

This week on The Coaching Café: What if I know the answer? Exploring workplace coaching scenarios It’s a question that we get often in our Leader as Coach or introductory coaching workshops that goes something along the lines of: ‘Coaching is great. Asking them for options is great. But what if I know the answer?.’ The question is usually followed by an explanation about how the person asking the question is a subject matter expert and knows the way forward. Or perhaps there’s no time for coaching. Alternatively, a worry or concern about the options generated by the coachee, particularly when the coach thinks that the options might be risky or just unrealistic. Even coaches with more experience may find thoughts might cross their minds about ‘better’ options or answers. In this Coaching Café where we continue our theme of Coaching Cafes: exploring very real workplace coaching scenarios and we explore situational coaching. In particular how to approach the scenario in the workplace, when you actually know that an option may not work, be the best alternative or is not feasible. Whether you are an experienced coach, coaching managers to coach their people, just starting out, or even coaching family members, it’s a topic that we can all explore and learn from.

Very nice & excellent Marshall Goldsmith We need to ask fundamental questions in this AI world, how a human mind learns? All the knowledge & experience is limited it can never be completed. AI has digitalized all the knowledge and what a human mind can do with this knowledge How a human mind itself by itself aware how it is programmed by parents/ education/ friends / society. In this awareness lies NI (natural intelligence) This NI can't be achieved by effort & thinking. In today's AI world how a human mind experience NI (natural intelligence, in computer language a world server) which is untouched by mind. Is there is intelligence beyond thinking? Don't agree or disagree, because if u agree or disagree that's is the end of it. Think about it but don't over think, since thinking is root cause of all the inventions / problem of today's society #coaching #ai #naturalintelligence #mindset #ekee.org
