In my job I spend a lot of time talking to coaches - helping them to talk to each-other and the wider world. It's all about sharing great practice, developing the profession, & making coaching even more effective. It's fascinating, and it's often fun - but it's really only the start of the story; coaching is about the client's agenda - it's about the people we hel...

I've got a lot on my plate. Lots of projects, lots of issues to resolve, lots of directions I want to develop in. There's a lot I need to get done. And through my work in and around coaching, I meet others who sound like they've got a lot to do too. But what happens when we shift that focus. Instead of just coaching around what we are DOING, what if we use coaching to explore what w...

I was looking at some websites of my coaching colleagues, and I was getting quite curious about the content of online biographies - you know, those little bio pieces that appear on people's websites. Something about them felt a bit odd - and at odds with what I thought coaches got up to. You see, when we're coaching - we're not supposed to be giving of our expertise - even if we&apo...

When I started hanging out with coaches, and being coached myself, it struck me that the human quality of the interaction - it's warmth and rapport - is so so important. For coaching to work we need a great chemistry between the coach and their client. But, then - when I trained as a coach, I was hit with this out-of-place word. A word that, to me, is quite cold - and actually a bit scary and...

I’m very curious about this thing we call coaching, and how it helps people on the journeys they take through their professional lives. Coaching itself is a professional practice, but how does it compare to other more well-known professions? What’s it like? What’s it not like? And… how do I get really good at it? Come join us, for a conversation with coaching at its heart. Today’s guest is my clos...
