What does it take to truly transform conversations and empower clients as a coach? In this episode we unpack the essential coaching skills that every great coach should cultivate. These aren't the conventional techniques you'll find in a competency framework; they're the often-overlooked yet powerful capabilities that create truly impactful and transformative coaching experiences. Join us as we share insights and personal reflections from our own coaching journeys, exploring both the obvious and under-the-radar skills that can elevate your coaching practice. As we kick off the conversation, we reflect on what makes the art of coaching so unique. One of the first skills we explore is attunement and loving presence—the ability to tune into a client's energy, emotions, and worldview. This skill allows coaches to create a safe, intimate space where clients can open up, share their vulnerabilities, and feel fully seen. We recount how, over time, we've learned to attune to the “energy field” of our clients, connecting with their inner worlds in deeply meaningful ways. Next, we delve into pattern spotting, a skill that extends beyond just noticing what clients say in the moment. It's about drawing connections across multiple conversations and identifying themes that clients themselves may not yet recognise. We share how this skill enhances self-awareness and helps clients unlock breakthroughs. Time management comes into focus as we discuss its role in maintaining session boundaries and ensuring clients derive maximum value. It's a practical yet essential skill—one that's vital for closing sessions effectively while allowing both coach and client to leave the coaching “bubble” ready to engage with the wider world. From there, we explore cultural awareness and the importance of understanding the systemic challenges and diverse lived experiences our clients may face. We reflect on our own growth and commitment to educating ourselves, creating inclusive spaces, and embracing the complexities of coaching within a multicultural landscape. We also dive into creativity and agility, sharing how “dancing in the moment” helps us respond to clients' needs without rigidly adhering to structures or models. This is complemented by our exploration of keeping ego in check, reminding ourselves as coaches to stay client-centred and avoid the temptation to impose our own agendas. Towards the end of the episode, we discuss two transformative skills: lifelong learning and courage. We share how embracing a learner's mindset keeps us open to growth, while courage allows us to navigate the often vulnerable space of coaching conversations with authenticity and boldness. Throughout the episode, we reflect on our personal experiences and offer practical insights that you can apply to your own coaching practice. Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your skills, we hope this episode provides inspiration and guidance on your journey as a coach. 10 Essential Coaching Skills: Attunement & Loving Presence Pattern Spotting Time Management Boundary Setting Cultural Awareness Creativity & Agility Keeping Ego in Check Business Acumen Lifelong Learning Courage Timestamps 00:00: Introduction 02:15: Skill 1 - Attunement 09:45: Skill 2 - Pattern Spotting 15:30: Skill 3 - Time Management 22:00: Skill 4 - Boundary Setting 27:40: Skill 5 - Cultural Awareness 33:10: Skill 6 - Creativity 38:25: Skill 7 - Keeping Ego in Check 45:00: Skill 8 - Business Acumen 50:20: Skill 9 - Lifelong Learning 56:40: Skill 10 - Courage Keywords: Essential coaching skills, Coaching attunement, Pattern spotting in coaching, Coaching time management, Setting boundaries as a coach, Cultural awareness in coaching, Coaching creativity and agility, Keeping ego in check coaching, Business skills for coaches, Lifelong learning for coaches, Coaching courage, Breakthrough coaching conversations, Coaching competency frameworks, Coaching CPD programs, Becoming a great coach, Links: Take the Coaching Course Quiz: www.mycoachingcourse.com COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 5 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l5-diploma COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 7 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l7-diploma Purchase our bestselling book ”Deciding to Coach”: https://amzn.to/3UvUe9r Join The Coaching Crowd Community on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheCoachingCrowd/ In Good Company (UK) https://www.igcompany.co.uk/ Check out our YouTube Channel https://bit.ly/378rY9a
For St. Patrick's Day, Laura Fay reflects on the stereotypes and cultural differences in celebrating the holiday.
We've been thinking a lot about culture recently, and reflecting on how–whether or not we're aware of it–culture is a force that's always exerting influence on us. It's typically only when we get outside of our daily routine, our city or even our country, and are confronted with new ways of doing things that we can clearly see the values, norms, and practices that make up the culture we live in. Today, we're re-running a thought-provoking conversation we had with Michele Gelfand about notions of what she calls “tight” and “loose” cultures. It's a conversation that helps illuminate some of the invisible forces of culture, and also sheds light on how understanding these forces helps us better navigate the world. We hope you'll take another listen and enjoy. Have a question for Russ? Send it our way in writing or via voice memo, and it might be featured on an upcoming episode.

He emphasizes that autonomy, competition, and the desire to impact the business are key motivators. Understanding these can help CROs better tailor their leadership and incentive structures.Curiosity as a Differentiator: Top-performing salespeople often exhibit a strong sense of curiosity and a willingness to learn. CROs should foster an environment that encourages intellectual engagement and peer learning to enhance team performance.Recognition and Accountability: Building a cohesive sales team involves recognizing contributions from all team members, not just those who close deals. CROs should focus on fostering a culture of inclusivity and accountability, which aligns with company values and encourages collective success.Sales Enablement and Data-Driven Coaching: Effective sales enablement requires moving beyond content overload to live training sessions and leveraging tools like Gong for data-driven coaching. CROs should ensure their teams have access to insights that can improve performance and identify areas for development.Building a Winning Mindset: In challenging market conditions, CROs should inspire their teams by sharing stories of underdogs who have succeeded against the odds.

And if we look at the medicine wheel, there are 4 parts of self. So, that medicine wheel is a framework for many different things, but in terms of a holistic viewpoint, It takes into account the spirit, which is your vision, your emotion, which is your guiding light, I would say, your thoughts, which come from that vision and allows you to be on the path of where you'd like to see yourself, and then of course, your living and being and doing.” - 00:04:56“I would really like to have people to begin to self-reflect and see where they sit in the world.

And now, on with the show... ***(27:00) ***END***(23:00)**** Habits – Personal Humility and Teachability • Habit: Maintain a posture of humility, being teachable and open to correction and growth. • Biblical Basis: "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up." (James 4:10) Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. • Why It's Important: Pride can hinder spiritual growth and effectiveness in discipling others. Humility allows the disciple maker to continue growing and learning. Prides keeps you at the center, Humilty helps keep Jesus at the center. ***(23:00)***END***(0:00) Shepherding and equipping a church for ministry requires a lot from a pastor. 1. **Spiritual Leadership** - **Biblical Knowledge****Prayer Life****Discernment** 2. **Preaching and Teaching** - **Effective Communication****Teaching Skills** 3. **Relational Skills** - **Empathy and Compassion****Conflict Resolution****Mentoring and Discipleship** 4. **Leadership and Vision Casting** - **Visionary Leadership****Decision-Making and Strategy****Delegation** 5. **Equipping and Empowering** - **Recognizing Gifts in Others****Training and Development****Empowerment – give authority away to others** 6. **Administration and Organization** - **Organizational Skills****Team Building****Budgeting and Stewardship** 7. **Emotional Intelligence** - **Self-Awareness****Ability to read the room****Resilience** 8. **Counseling and Pastoral Care** - **Counseling Skills****Crisis Management** 9. **Cultural Awareness and Engagement** - **Cultural Sensitivity**: Churches are often diverse in terms of culture, background, and socioeconomic status. A pastor must be culturally aware and sensitive, able to foster an inclusive environment where everyone feels welcome. - **Community Engagement**: Pastors should have a heart for the local community and a strategy for how the church can serve outside its walls. Engaging with local needs and being a visible presence in the community helps fulfill the church's mission. 10. **Adaptability and Lifelong Learning** - **Adaptability**: The church and broader culture are always changing. Pastors must be flexible, able to adapt their leadership and ministry approaches to meet new challenges, such as changes in technology, social issues, or generational shifts. - **Continual Growth**: Great pastors are lifelong learners, committed to their own spiritual, intellectual, and professional growth. Attending conferences, pursuing theological education, or engaging with mentors helps pastors stay sharp and effective in their ministry. 11. **Personal Integrity and Character** - **Moral Integrity**: Above all, pastors need to model Christlike character, demonstrating integrity, humility, and faithfulness in their personal and professional lives. Trust is central to leadership, and integrity is foundational to building that trust. - **Servant-Heartedness**: Pastors should approach their leadership role with humility and a desire to serve others, following the example of Christ, who came not to be served but to serve (Matthew 20:28). By developing these skills, a pastor can effectively shepherd the congregation, equip members for ministry, and create a thriving, Christ-centered church community. Balancing the various responsibilities of a pastor—such as sermon preparation, counseling, small groups, leadership, and training — requires intentional time management and prioritization. Here's a strategy to help a pastor manage these tasks effectively: 1. **Set Priorities and Define Time Blocks** - **Sermon Preparation:** This is typically the pastor's core weekly responsibility, so allocate large, uninterrupted blocks of time. Many pastors reserve the best mental energy times, such as mornings, for sermon prep. A typical week might include: - **Monday**: Initial study and prayer for the sermon. - **Tuesday/Wednesday**: Deep study, outlining, and drafting. - **Thursday**: Finalizing and practicing delivery. - **Counseling:** Set dedicated times during the week for counseling appointments. For instance, 1-2 afternoons can be reserved for pastoral care and counseling. - **Small Groups and Discipleship:** These typically occur in the evening. You can limit these to a few nights per week (e.g., Tuesday and Thursday) and delegate or raise up other leaders to assist in leading groups. - **Leadership and Training:** Set aside time for leadership development, meetings, or training sessions. This can be scheduled weekly or bi-weekly, depending on the need. For example, leadership meetings could be set for Monday or Wednesday afternoons, before or after sermon prep. 2. **Delegate Where Possible** Pastors often feel they need to do everything themselves, but delegating is key to maintaining balance. Assign trusted team members or volunteers to lead certain small groups, handle administrative tasks, or even assist in some counseling roles. ***(00:00)*** END PART 1*** ___________________ ***(27:00) ***BEGIN PART 2 ***END ***(5:00)*** 3. **Utilize Early Mornings or Evenings for Training and Leadership** If training leaders or discipling key individuals is a priority, use early mornings for small leadership huddles or evenings if that works better for the participants. Short, focused meetings (e.g., breakfast meetings) can maximize time without disrupting the rest of the day. 4. **Batch Similar Tasks** Instead of switching between different types of work throughout the day, batch similar tasks together. For instance, group all counseling appointments on specific days and leave other days for sermon prep and leadership training. This minimizes transition time and helps you stay mentally focused on one type of task at a time. 5. **Personal Development Time** Block time each week for your own spiritual and professional growth. Without this, it can be easy to burn out. This might include personal Bible study, prayer, or reading to stay refreshed. 6. **Protect Your Sabbath** Schedule a clear day of rest each week to recharge. It's important for pastors to guard their time for personal renewal, family, and spiritual refreshment. ### Example Typical Weekly Schedule:### Where is the rest? - **Monday:** - Morning: Sermon prep (Initial study, prayer, and research) - Afternoon: Counseling and administrative tasks - Evening: Rest/Family time - **Tuesday:** - Morning: Sermon prep (Deep study and outlining) - Afternoon: Counseling appointments - Evening: Small group meeting or discipleship group - **Wednesday:** - Morning: Sermon prep (Writing and structuring) - Afternoon: Leadership team meeting or training session - Evening: Midweek service or discipleship training - **Thursday:** - Morning: Sermon prep (Finalization and practice) - Afternoon: Free for flexible needs or meetings - Evening: Small group meeting or discipleship - **Friday:** - Morning: Personal study and prayer (Sabbath/Rest day) - Afternoon: Counseling or visiting members - Evening: Rest/Family time - **Saturday:** - Morning: Free for sermon review or final prep - Afternoon: Outreach, ministry, or personal rest - Evening: Rest - **Sunday:** - Preaching and ministry day ## My Thoughts on a Weeks Schedule Sunday AM Message – Theology of the week – Main theme for the body to focus on this week. Sunday PM – small group ministry, each group asks specific questions about the application of the morning theme and discusses personal application and questions. Feedback for the pastor should come from these groups, what wasn't understood or agreed with? Midweek small groups – prayer focused on living out the mission of Jesus, who are we reaching out to now, how are we doing in living out the Sunday Am message. How can we pray for each other and answer questions that come up as we make real attempts to be followers of Jesus. SS AM before next Message and new theme – final thoughts on the theme from last week, questions about application, encouragement to continue applying this truth to their lives For the pastor, First thing on the schedule is Personal pursuit of Jesus. Second is time with men he is equipping for ministry. Ideally every pastor would always have 2-3 men he is training. Give them your best time and meet when they are available. As men are trained and able to come alongside in ministry time is freed up for the pastor to train others. I put prep for these men above sermon prep. Third, prep for weekly theme. Ideally these consistently builds and are related so you aren't starting from zero, ever. The focus should be practical truths that, when applied in the life of the believer, lead them closer to Jesus and His mission. Fourth, general ministry activities and life of the church tasks. Delegate as many of these as possible. You serve the church body best not by doing everything for them but by helping them see that they are the church and it is their responsibility to be the church. ****(5:00) ***END***( 1:00)*** DOCTRINE October – Bible Authority of the Bible Inerrancy of the Bible Sufficiency of the Bible Necessity of the Bible Necessity: Related to sufficiency, but slightly different, this doctrine holds that “the Bible is necessary for knowing the gospel, for maintaining spiritual life, and for knowing God's will, but is NOT necessary for knowing that God exists or for knowing something about God's character and moral laws” (Grudem, Systematic Theology, 116). This gets at the difference between special and general revelation. Scripture alone provides special revelation: knowledge of God's will and salvation Rom. 10:13–17 – 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Israel Rejects the Gospel 14 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? 15 And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, Who bring glad tidings of good things!” 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed our report?” 17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. 18 But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: “Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world.” Acts 4:12 – 12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” **(1:00)**END**(00:00) Thanks for joining me again today!

Maurice maximized his time by furthering his education and double majored in psychology and theology to find out why we, as a black people, have been targeted and brainwashed to have a black inferior complex that we have collectively been groomed to accept and live by. Maurice began to change his life from a gangster being feared in the streets and prison, and his own brainwashing to becoming humble in a world where humbleness is conceived to be a sign of weakness. Living by examples he never had was now the focus.Maurice began to assist with putting on plays for ‘scared straight' in prison, learned and taught “Anger Management” and “Don't Sweat the Small Stuff,” along with receiving certification from the Chemical Dependency board as a Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistant (CDCA), became a certified mental health specialist and several other programs to assist in changing the mindset that we have been groomed to have which causes us to act as we do. Maurice studied business management and copyrighted several businesses from 1997-2000, including COLLECTIVE MINDS, LLC. Collective Minds, LLC. was born from the passion Marbury has overall for black people. Maurice came home from prison October 12, 2004 with a mind that was changed and ready for society. Maurice realized that he could change his learned thought process to one that allows him to make better decisions in life and knowing it can do the same for others. Maurice formulated the plan for Collective Minds LLC., while in prison but began to apply it as a business in 2015 based on the attributable foundations: “Cultural Awareness, Education, Economic Development, and Empowerment” of US that we as a black people need to acknowledge and digest in order to stop being divided, and to become a united people, COLLECTIVELY.Visit our Instagram at:IG: @financial_legacy_leaYou can reach us at:Email: president@aleashelpinghand.visionTo learn more, visit:http://www.aleashelpinghand.vision/Listen to more episodes on Mission Matters:https://missionmatters.com/author/lea-smith

The organization not only supplies culturally relevant food to over 20 food pantries but also conducts awareness campaigns, cooking classes, and community dinners to promote understanding and unity through shared culinary experiences. Luke recounts the personal journey and collaborative efforts that led to the founding of Inclusive Eats, including his brother's realization about the lack of culturally relevant food in pantries. He also discusses how participation in the SCI Youth Grant Pitch Contest helped Inclusive Eats develop a plan for a series of cooking classes.

You can't control what people do to you. You can only control how you react to how people treat you. Author, senior executive, and educator Errol L. Pierre(@Errol L. Pierre) brings a wealth of experience, insight, and leadership, discussing mentorship, work ethic, and climbing the corporate mountain as a professional of color. "Have the courage to make a million mistakes and the wisdom not to make the same mistake a million times." -Errol L. Pierre Key Takeaways: Optimal Performance Strategy: Execute tasks with unwavering commitment and enthusiasm. Wholehearted dedication to each endeavor maximizes the potential for success and fulfillment. Opportunities present themselves in the synchronicity of life. Strategic Interaction Approach: Adopt a professional mindset akin to "One Day, One Life." Treat every daily interaction as if it were an interview, promoting attentiveness and respect for meaningful connections. Show up as your best each day and prepare for the best possible outcome in all your interactions. Cultural Awareness for Harmony: Acknowledge that societal divisiveness often stems from limited exposure to diverse cultures. Foster unity by actively seeking to understand and appreciate different cultural perspectives. Regardless of who we are, we all have biases; this is an important distinction when engaging in and facilitating complex discussions. Learning through Errors: View mistakes as valuable learning opportunities. Making a diverse array of mistakes can lead to a wealth of knowledge and increased intelligence. However, repetitive errors without adaptation require corrective action to ensure continued growth and success. Mentorship Principle: A genuine mentor facilitates the journey of individuals in discovering their true selves. Acting as a guide and shepherd, a mentor provides support without giving answers. Like bowling bumpers, mentors offer nudges and guidance, encouraging mentees to navigate their personal growth paths. The focus lies on answering questions, reminding them of guiding principles, and gently steering them towards self-discovery and industry expectations.

What happens when as an eight-year-old, you are moved from Okinawa to Indiana, two more contrasting places you couldn't imagine? Well, for half-Japanese-half-American Michael Dykes, it was definitely “jarring”, but it taught him some valuable life lessons which have stood him in good stead in both his career and life.The Vice President, Market Management of Asia-Pacific for Expedia Group said growing up on a farm in rural America taught him self-sufficiency as well as an appreciation for the origin of food. It also made him determined to return to Japan, and Asia, where his heart is and so he made sure he never lost his Japanese language skills while building a new life in the US. In this podcast, Dykes talks about how countries in South-east Asia are more interwoven with each other – a lot of cultural awareness across boundaries, not seen so much in North-east Asia, which then leads to e-commerce in general, including travel, cutting across boundaries as well. Dykes also talks about Expedia's partnerships with Jetstar and Philippine Airlines, and a deal now with general e-commerce players such as G-Mart of South Korea. The company is also expanding the definition of B2B, and he sees opportunities within Asia-Pacific, both vertically and geographically, for Expedia to “power travel for everybody”.New episodes of Powering Travel coming in 2024.
