Q

Explain how the human condition “Structure Liberates” can be related to coaching.

A

The structure of skills coaching and the processes provided help prepare and liberate you so you can focus on the feedback and skill you are building, not determining the best way to deliver the feedback or skill building.

You may also find that providing a clear structure to follow when setting expectations and articulating the desired skill helps your team member with the clarity of the process and also to understand where there is freedom and where there is a framework you expect.

Q

Explain how the human condition “The Time Management Law” can be related to coaching.

A

You, as the coach, won’t free up your time to coach so you need to plan it in your daily and weekly plan. You should avoid booking coaching/observations on the fly. Treatment – Time locking and weekly/daily plans.

You may also find that your coachee will not free themselves up to make the behaviour change if they didn’t want to in the first place. You will need to inspect what you expect on their commitment to the behaviour change. Treatment – 48 Hour Rule, Follow-Up and weekly/daily plans.

Q

Explain how the human condition “The Adulthood Problem” can be related to coaching.

Q

Explain how the human condition “get the behaviour change first and the attitude change will follow” can be related to coaching.

A

Where coaching has not been the norm people may initially be hostile to any sort of coaching. It is important that behaviour change is not held hostage to people’s attitudes. It is likely that the positive attitude change will start to occur when the new behaviour is implemented and people discover that its not as bad (and possible a lot better) than they had thought and that it produces better outcomes
