Coaching done well raises awareness.
As established, increased awareness helps you better lead yourself and others.
It also leads to action with a clear intention – deliberate action that’s connected to your key goals and priorities.
Coming from a place of heightened awareness, you can operate in your flow to lead and perform at your best.
If you want to to grow and develop, you need access to your blind spots and other performance killers. No access, no growth.
Your performance and your well-being depend on it.
I knew I would eventually get the hang of international travel, but I had no idea I would be developing skills that would drive future professional success.
25 years later, it is still a beloved hobby of mine. But not because it helps me in my work. That is just a nice coincidence.
You might think that designing a piece of jewelry or another one of your hobbies is a waste of time…you would be wrong.
“…to motivate someone to bring their best performance to a task, remember these 3 things –
If people feel you value their goals, they’ll be motivated to help you with yours.
Asking questions is the key to understanding someone’s needs and goals.
The more you tailor your words and actions to their needs and goals, the more influence you have.”
…it’s unfair and even dangerous to ask or expect people to act happy when they don’t feel like it, I do believe that it’s important for companies to value the physical and emotional well-being of their workforce.
Furthermore, I believe it’s more important for them to act on what they see and hear from their employees. That is, if they really want to improve it.
Therefore, I welcome the mindfulness and yoga incentives…ones without unrealistic expectations attached.
Provide me with free coffee in the office and I’ll be more alert. But don’t expect a testimonial of gratitude for it. Offer yoga class on Wednesday nights, but don’t monitor my attendance.
