Become an Expert in your Craft - Coaches & Consultants

Become an Expert in your Craft.

Coaching is an art and a profession that needs to be taken seriously. Now, all those who consider themselves coaches owe it to themselves and the people they coach to be the best they can be.

Let’s discuss a few things that will make you an expert in Coaching

Awareness is the ability to recognize your perspective not just in your experience but in how others see you as well. It’s about understanding your needs, desires, habits, and everything that makes you YOU

How to help your clients be more aware - Slow them down

Here are some ways for you to increase your self-awareness: Ask yourself:

• What are your strengths?

• What are your core values?

• What do you love doing?

• What do you tend to avoid?

• What do you want to achieve in your life?

• What do you want to leave as a legacy?

• How do you tend to manage your emotions? - Big emotions like love, anger, sadness, stress, happiness, etc

Presence is one's ability to be consciously aware of what is happening. You are present to your client’s needs and emotions as well as yours.

How to be more present in your coaching sessions:

• Turn off your phone, laptop, and any other distracting device (ask your client to do the same).

• Leave your personal life outside your coaching session.

• Make sure you schedule enough time to be fully present in your session.

• Start a meditation practice where you allow yourself just to BE and not DO anything. When you feel your mind wants to wander, focus on breathing for a while. Allow the experience to bring you to the present moment.

Deep Listening  - Tips for becoming a better listener

• Allow time for silence so your client can digest their insights.

• Don’t try to be interesting; be interested in what your client says.

• Don’t worry about what to ask next. Let the session flow. Don't race the conversation.

• Invite your ego out of the equation

Rapport is creating that invisible but crucial emotional connection between you and the person sitting before you.
