Fieldwork Week 5

Reflect on Your Observations

In class you had the opportunity to observe, or be part of a live coaching exchange.  Reflect on what you learned and write a Note-To-Self to retain that awareness. Tip: Re-watch the class video to pick up other ideas and insights.
Consider these questions to craft your note to self:

  1. What worked well?
  2. What did I learn by observing this coaching session?
  3. How will I integrate and/or incorporate this learning into my coaching?

Recap of Requesting

Requesting is a way to inject a different perspective, causing a pause in the current thinking pattern of the coachee with the intention to move the client forward towards their goal.

It is an advanced skill because it takes a refined ability to Listen, to ask power Questions, an effective use of silence and experience with the pace of a powerful coaching exchange.

Practice Coaching this week.

Coach your Practice Partner or a client at least once this week.

If you were the Coach today, self-assess your artwork.

Congratulations on doing a live coaching session.
Nerve racking?  ... Often.
A learning opportunity?  ... Let's see.

An additional way to learn the ICF core competencies is to observe them in action. This exercise has several objectives:

  1. Listen to the class recording of your coaching exchange to discover more learnings.
  2. Assess your own coaching exchange using the Competency Observer Guide
  3. Document your insights to use in your development as a coach.
