#019 The Power of Observations in Coaching
Feb 09, 2022As a coach in a session, it's not enough to just ask questions and listen to your coaches response. Observations are what makes coaching transformational. In today's episode, we'll help you to understand how you can channel the power of observations into your conversations and use it to identify the blindspots your clients might have missed.
What you will learn in this episode:
- Why observations are so important in a coaching conversation.
- The different types of observations.
- How to use your observations to create awareness for your clients.
- The art of making observations and how to use it in a coaching conversation
Making observations is a skill that helps unlock resourcefulness in your client. It's where you as the coach need to learn what's helpful and not helpful to share as observations and the judgement you use as a coach shapes the experience your client has.
Observations enables your client to become conscious of their thoughts and actions, and also find answers they had hidden in their minds. To do this well you'll need to tune down your internal voice, brush up on your listening skills and observe what's going on in a coaching session.
