Description

In this conversation, Siawash and Yannick discuss the question of whether holding space is enough to create results in coaching. They explore the importance of holding space and being fully present as a coach, as well as the practice of holding space effectively. They also discuss the balance between doing less and doing more in coaching, and the role of action and intervention. The conversation delves into different philosophies on intervention and the importance of including the client in the decision-making process. The episode concludes with a reflection on the coach's motivations and the different perspectives on coaching.TakeawaysHolding space is an essential aspect of coaching, allowing clients to do their best thinking and tune into themselves.Doing less can often be more effective in coaching, as it allows clients to tap into their own resources and find their own answers.Intervention and action can be valuable in coaching, but it is important to consider the client's needs and preferences.Including the client in the decision-making process and checking in with them regularly can help ensure that the coaching is aligned with their goals and expectations.Chapters00:00 Introduction00:49 The Importance of Holding Space03:20 The Practice of Holding Space05:17 Doing Less is Doing More06:40 The Role of Action and Intervention08:08 The Power of Asking Questions09:34 Adapting to the Client's Needs11:00 Different Philosophies on Intervention12:14 Making Decisions as a Coach14:08 The Client's Expectations15:12 Including the Client in the Process17:11 Reflecting on the Coaching Session18:39 Exploring the Coach's Motivations19:36 The Coach-Client Partnership21:38 Different Perspectives on Coaching22:12 Conclusion____If you'd like to stay up to date with new episodes, continue the conversation or generally support what we do: Send us your question: http://bit.ly/talkingaboutcoachingSign up to our mailing list (no spam, no sales, just a quick shout about new episodes): https://mailchi.mp/afc10fc74492/talkingaboutcoachingWatch us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG2cC6sgHdLuhBdRqxQNPYgListen to and download all episodes: http://talkingaboutcoaching.buzzsprout.com/Like our Facebook page: http://fb.me/TalkingAboutCoachingJoin our Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/3023068731067611/Support the show on PatreonSupport the Show.
