In this episode, I sit down with Professor David Clutterbuck—pioneer of team coaching, co-founder of the EMCC, and author of over 70 books—to explore what makes teams thrive in today's complex environments. A deeply insightful conversation that transforms how we think about teams. From the science of team dynamics to building cultures of accountability and coaching, David shares frameworks and stories that every leader should hear. In this episode, we cover: What it means to see teams as complex adaptive systems The six essential PERILL elements that influence team performance Why leaders need to foster coaching cultures—not just coach individuals How to navigate stakeholder complexity and team alignment Creating self-sustaining teams and scaling distributed leadership One of my favourite takeaways? The difference between discussion, debate, and dialogue. Teams that truly thrive don't argue or compromise—they find new meaning together. This conversation is full of practical strategies for building teams that don't just function—they flourish.

Ngọn lửa của nhiệt huyết, của đam mê, của sự hứng khởi.

Hay đã đến lúc bạn dịch chuyển sang một hành trình sâu sắc hơn – nơi bạn nuôi dưỡng nội tâm, lắng nghe chính mình, và chuyển hóa những tổn thương thành sức mạnh bên trong?Trong Podcast này, Ruby sẽ giúp bạn nhìn lại hành trình chữa lành của bản thân. Thay vì cố gắng “loại bỏ nỗi đau”, liệu ta có thể học cách chăm sóc cảm xúc, đón nhận những vết thương và nuôi dưỡng những giá trị tốt đẹp đã sẵn có bên trong mình?Nuôi dưỡng nội tâm mới chính là con đường bền vững để trưởng thành và bình an từ bên trong. Podcast này sẽ giúp bạn định hướng lại cách tiếp cận, từ đó kết nối với bản thân một cách sâu sắc và tự do hơn.
Có bao giờ bạn thấy bất lực…Khi nhìn thấy con – hoặc một người thân yêu – đang buồn, đang khủng hoảng, đang vùng vẫy với những cảm xúc khó chịu?Và điều duy nhất bạn có thể làm đó là tự trách mình:“Tại sao mình không thể làm gì để giúp người ấy tốt lên?”“Chắc mình chưa đủ giỏi, chưa đủ sâu sắc, chưa đủ bình an…”Hôm nay, tôi sẽ kể cho bạn một câu chuyện có thật từ một học viên của tôi – một người mẹ rất thương con…để từ đó giúp bạn nhận ra một sai lầm thường gặp của cha mẹ khiến họ không thể đồng hành cùng con. Đồng thời, tôi cũng sẽ chia sẻ với bạn một góc nhìn có thể giải phóng bạn khỏi gánh nặng mà rất nhiều cha mẹ đang vô tình mang theo.

Bạn đã thử đọc sách, học khoá học, áp dụng đủ loại công cụ phát triển bản thân……nhưng cuối cùng, vẫn có điều gì đó cứ chênh vênh, mỏi mệt, không rõ đường đi. Và thậm chí, càng cố gắng, bạn càng thấy mình bế tắc.Nếu điều đó đang xảy ra với bạn, thì podcast này là để dành cho bạn. Chúng ta sẽ cùng ngồi lại hôm nay – để nhìn thật sâu vào điều mà rất ít người nói ra khi nói về phát triển bản thân: Tại sao càng cố thay đổi, ta lại càng thấy mắc kẹt?Cảm ơn bạn vì đã ở đây, Cảm ơn vì đã lắng nghe, không chỉ tôi – mà còn chính mình. Và nếu bạn mang về chỉ một điều thôi từ podcast này, thì tôi hy vọng đó làHành trình thay đổi sâu sắc nhất… luôn bắt đầu bằng sự chấp nhận.Không phải chấp nhận để dừng lại. Mà là chấp nhận để bắt đầu một hành trình đầy yêu thương và dưỡng lành.

Have you ever looked for a mentor or thought about becoming one? This week's show explores the benefits on both sides. Mentorship can help shape careers, foster inclusivity, and make a workplace less lonely by developing stronger connections across teams and experiences. Whether through formal programs or informal connections, mentorship creates opportunities, and nurtures growth on both sides. My guests are: - Sonata Louvigny - Patricia Souza - Inês Crisóstomo - Sylvia Rohde-Liebenau National Mentoring Day on 27 Oct was inaugurated at the Houses of Parliament in London, led by Chelsey Baker. In December 2023 the Official Journal of the EU published the Opinion of the European Committee of the Regions entitled “Mentoring: A Powerful and Meaningful Tool for the Europe of Tomorrow." (links below) During this conversation we discuss how to find a mentor, build a trusting environment for effective listening and communication and setting outcome expectations. Two way Street Mentorship can also be effective for mentors themselves, to develop stronger bonds and ideas within their organisation and learn how to ask good questions of oneself along with the other. Inês Crisóstomo encourages people to reach out to someone you might admire professionally and ask for an ‘information interview' with them for about 15 minutes. “You are not alone” Mentoring can be viewed as a learning conversation: learning about oneself; creating space for reflection and supporting action planning. It also helps to equalise opportunities, to create frameworks that support professional development. Informal networks often serve men more than women for example. With over a decade in Science Management, Inês supports scientists to thrive in an ever-evolving research landscape. She coordinates the Mentoring Program sponsored by the Gender Equality Group at the University of Luxembourg and works as a mentor and coach. Her own background is a Ph.D. in Biology from ITQB-UNL (Instituto de Tecnologia Química e Biológica António Xavier ITQB NOVA, Lisboa), with research conducted at the Rockefeller University in New York, USA. She has worked at iMM (Lisboa, Portugal) and in the Vienna BioCenter (Austria). Inês knows how important mentorship can be in a research environment and is accredited by the MCAA (Marie Curie Alumni Association), EMCC, EMCC Luxembourg (European Mentoring and Coaching Council), and the CARE network (Career Advisors Supporting Researchers in Europe), fostering collaborations and knowledge sharing within global communities. Patricia Souza is the co-founder of WeSTEM+ (Women in Excel STEM) and a Leadership Development and Inclusion Consultant focused on creating more inclusive and equitable business environments. She is also the co-chair the Membership Stream for the NextGen chapter of Lead Network and a board member of the BeLux Chapter. Patricia believes in empowerment through guidance, and a build-up of confidence and leadership through a good mentor. However, she also states that mentorship is a two-way relationship with a ripple effect to the circles of influence for both participants. “It's about building a relationship that can change the trajectory of their life.” Sylvia Rohde-Liebenau is a leadership expert who worked in HR for many years, where she became involved with mentoring. Sylvia created the first ever mentoring programme at the European Investment Bank and later, together with Rita Knott, the Youth Mentoring Programme in Luxembourg. Today she works as an executive coach to leaders on all levels, with a focus on leadership presence, resilience, communication and impact. For organisations, Sylvia believes mentor programmes are fantastic (and cheap) L&D tools that cover several purposes, in particular: 1) fostering a cohesive organisational culture 2) passing organisation specific knowledge to newcomers and younger professionals, 3) creating networks 4) fostering a learning environment Mentors give back AND about learn about themselves. Mentees: “You get as much as you put in (it's not a free lunch)” Keys to successful mentoring include building trust and openness at the start; clear agreements and engagement from both sides; basic coaching skills for mentors. Sonata Louvigny is an EU project and program management leader, coach and mentor. Her starting point in mentoring was experiencing the negative impacts of mismanaged mentoring within her team. Sonata's master's thesis was on managing the mentoring process and to help various organisations develop effective mentoring programs aligned with their goals. She is a member of professional mentoring associations such as IMA and EMCC (European Mentoring and Coaching Council). She worked with EMCC Luxembourg, where her role was to oversee the accreditation process for coaches and mentors. Sonata warns that a mentor could be in a position of authority over the mentee, which is more common in traditional mentoring but not in developmental mentoring, and therefore professional guidelines are really important. Through her work she believes that mentoring is not just a hobby but requires specific competencies and skills. Effective mentors should be aware of the professional standards, continuously develop their capabilities, and, if they wish, seek accreditation to ensure they provide high-quality, impactful mentoring. How to find a mentor My guests suggest: - Identify people that inspire you. - Reach out to them - Join groups - Find peers - Take advantage of organisations that create mentorship programs (workplace, non-profit organisations, educational institutions, professional associations, government initiatives, and community organizations, among others).

Bio Kerrie, a serial entrepreneur, was introduced to mentoring after her last successful business sale. Realising she had no support or guidance in what she was doing, Kerrie founded the Association of Business Mentors in 2011 to provide mentoring skills and training for those seeking to mentor business owners professionally. Kerrie's vision for the ABM was to provide reassurance to business owners that they are in the safe hands of a trusted and experienced ABM professional business mentor. Kerrie mentors businesses of all shapes and sizes. She also mentors within the workplace, working closely with HR departments to run mentoring programmes to support the growth and development of their employees.

I'm Ula Ojiaku. On this podcast I speak with world-class leaders and doers about themselves and a variety of topics spanning Agile, Lean Innovation, Business, Leadership and much more – with actionable takeaways for you the listener. Ula Ojiaku I am very honoured to have the Founder of the Association of Business Mentors, Kerrie Dorman, as our guest on the Agile Innovation Leaders podcast. Kerrie, thank you so much for making the time for this conversation. I've been looking forward to it for ages. Kerrie Dorman You're very welcome. Thank you for having me. Ula Ojiaku My pleasure. So what's led you to the place where you are today and being the Kerrie Dorman that we've gotten to know and admire? Kerrie Dorman Okay, so actually part of my upbringing was being very much around entrepreneurship. My father was a key project manager on business ideas, primarily in Africa, and my stepfather also ran a very large family business. So I had business sort of around me from quite a young age, and I would talk to both my father and my stepfather about why things would happen and et cetera, et cetera. And so I became a serial entrepreneur from quite a young age. I think what gave me the impetus was the fact that I wasn't afraid to give something a go, and actually my motto now is give it a go or you'll never know, and if it works out, amazing, if not, then you learn and you move on. So my first business was in optics, because what I did do was get a profession behind me first, and that was a qualified dispensing optician. And so my first business was in recruitment for people within the optical industry, and I somehow managed to sell that by the skin of my teeth. And I just felt that it was incredibly satisfying, and a great sense of achievement to have been able to build something, even though it was very small, that was attractive to somebody else to want to pay for it. And so hence my entrepreneurialism streak started. So I started all sorts of businesses in all sorts of industries, I saw niches and just as I said, gave it a go. Some work just failed, and some I managed to sell, so I sort of came out vaguely on top at the end of it all, and then of course, there was the Association of Business Mentors, which is still going, and that came about because when I sold my last business, which was probably the most successful of them all, there was a new government funded mentorship program happening. It was an incubation centre, so there were young and bullish business owners wanting to be in this incubation centre to make sure that they had the best start, and so I was asked to come and share all my experiences, the successes, the failures, what I learnt, and I felt that I had a lot to share with these people, and that was my first stab at being a mentor. However, I didn't really know what I was doing, I'd never had my own mentor before, and I felt that I was getting quite frustrated with these young, inspiring people because they weren't running a business the way I had run a business. And I thought that that's what mentoring was about. There was no guidance on this scheme, and I just felt that it wasn't quite right in terms of what I was supposed to be doing. So I looked around for somewhere to hang my hat, find some other mentors, get some guidance, get some training, get some code of ethics, and the whole standard thing was really important to me. And apart from the EMCC, which is very European-centric and it was very coach-centric as well at the time. The European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC), which is still going strongly to this day, and we sit with them on the Global Code of Ethics Committee. They just have a lot of kudos and I'm very, very flattered that we work alongside them. So then I just realised that mentoring was about to explode in the UK. It was very big in the States and we really needed somewhere for mentors to go and be supported and guided and also for mentees, so for business owners to go somewhere where they knew that a mentor had the guidance, had the structure, had the ethics and they were in safe hands, and that was 13 years ago. Ula Ojiaku Wow. And look where the Association of Business Mentors has gotten to with, I believe, thousands of members across the country? Kerrie Dorman We are up to, I think, two and a half thousand members at the moment. But you know what, Ula, the thing is, is that it's not just been me, it's absolutely about the team and the other people who have helped get it to where it is today. I definitely cannot take all the credit. I can take the credit for having the idea and the initial oomph to get it going, but it's really been down to all the volunteers in all the different regions, the different members of the board. It is really who you manage to bring on board with you and help you get initiatives to where they are. Ula Ojiaku Thank you for that. I'm a big believer that as long as you're learning, it's not really failure. Kerrie Dorman Yeah, absolutely. So it's only a failure if you don't learn, and so I think my fear of failure meant that I had to learn in order for self preservation, if that makes sense, and although it wasn't always apparent, that's definitely the case. There's a wonderful quote ‘I never lose, either I win or I learn'. Ula Ojiaku Now, the vision or the team, which one do you think is more important in setting up a successful enterprise Kerrie Dorman The team. Every single time. And do you know why? It's because visions change. Visions can change according to things outside of your control, landscape, you just have no idea where a journey is going to take you, and I think that it's quite close minded to stick to the exact same vision all the way through because you may start an initiative, a business for one reason, and then you end up delivering a solution to something completely different, which needs a tweaked and amended vision. And also, a really good team will help you to shape a vision as you grow, so that's it for me. It's team all the way. Ula Ojiaku And in all the businesses you've founded, how did you go about building the teams, the partnerships, the structure? Kerrie Dorman For me, it was all about the people that I knew, approaching them first and the like-mindedness about the core reason why I wanted the ABM to exist really was about standard support and guidance, and that was my unique selling point, for a commercial phrase, and I just found that there were lots of people out there who were just as passionate about me as those three things. And so, because I was so passionate, and so were they, it was easy to get the right people, and the people who felt that they wanted to join the movement, but didn't quite have the passion fell away along the journey. And that's sort of been a theme, I think, through all the businesses, it's about the people and about who I knew. So initially, when I would have a business idea, the idea was great, but until I had the right person in mind to help me run it, then it was a no go, but interestingly, and this conversation has been a catalyst for this thought, interestingly, it was having great people in my sort of hemisphere that sometimes often made me come to the conclusion that I needed to set up a business in a particular arena with that person. So sometimes it was the person that was the catalyst, and a great example of that, just to be crystal clear about what I mean is, one of my businesses was a beauty salon specialised in pregnant ladies and mums. So pregnant ladies, and then when they had the babies, they could come back. So it was all set up for massaging and wellbeing for mums who had bumps and boobs that couldn't ever lie on their tummies. So I got these special couches from the States and then they could have proper massages and then there was a creche so that once they had their babies, they could come back. And so the catalyst for that business was, well A)I had a baby, but B) one of my employees in a current business was a qualified beauty therapist, and she was just having a bit of time out from the beauty world for one reason or another. And so I had my first born, and I had this employee who was really keen to get back and she was passionate about beauty and health. And for me, it then became this no brainer that the concept would work with her running it, and that's how it all started. Ula Ojiaku That's amazing. If you could speak to your younger self, what would you advise them to do? Kerrie Dorman This is a really great question and it really got me thinking. And I would sit myself down and I would say that I'd really need to ring fence my emotions. One of my downfalls has been to get too close to people that I have employed, and you know that saying ‘familiarity breeds contempt'. That actually really happened on several occasions. Ring fence my emotions, don't get too familiar. When you're in business, you have to have proper boundaries, and also, I can't stress the importance of having your eye on the numbers. You have to have your eye on the numbers all the time, not only just to make sure that you're making a profit currently, but that you have a sustainable business that can grow. So run forecasts and sense check them. Some people can get over zealous with it, but they just have to be there all the time. It's so, so important. And the fourth thing I would say to my younger self is to start delegating earlier. Took me a long time to really understand the power of delegating, and I think there was two reasons for that. A) I felt because I was quite young when I started these businesses, I just felt that I couldn't ask other people to do things for me when I was quite able to do them myself. And B) there was definitely an element of the fact that if I did it, it would probably be better than anyone else doing it. Two utterly ridiculous things, and if I'd learned that a lot earlier, then I would have been more successful, without a shadow of a doubt, and less tired probably. So when I'm running a training for mentors, I run this little exercise called the onion exercise, and it's all about stripping back and really getting both mentor and mentee down to the nub of the onion, because that's where you feel comfortable, safe, and that's where all the good conversations start happening. And so to get people talking to each other, I get them to pair up into twos and they have to talk about something that's very personal to them, and as an example, I tell the story about the fact that I give blood very regularly and that I have one of the rarer blood groups, and one time, it was about eight years ago, and I was giving blood and the nurse came over to check that everything was working, and she said to me, oh you have special blood. I said, well, it's just one of the rarer types. And she said, no, it is one of the rarer types, she said, but it's healthy enough to go to the neonatal clinic to save the babies. And I thought, oh my God, that's amazing. So I was giving this example in one training, and this mentor said to me, well, that's great, and it's a really interesting story, but what does that tell us in business? And it tells you actually that I have strong maternal instincts and I allow that to get in the way of my emotions and my professional boundaries, and that's, that's the power of it. Ula Ojiaku Now, if you were to define mentoring, what would you say it's all about? Kerrie Dorman My definition of mentoring is based on this. So a mentor's job is to ease the pain for the mentees. So we're mentoring because we have a certain amount of experience and skills and ethics and our role is to make sure that mentees look at all the options that are available to them, explore with all the appropriate approaches that they have, and go about their business in a calm and considered manner that's got the best outcomes possible. And as mentors we can do that because we've been there, we've done all sorts of things, we can just make sure that considered decisions are made, with all options having been explored. But not only do we need the experience as mentors, we need the skills, I mean, there are questioning and listening skills and self awareness skills that do not come naturally to a lot of people. We do have to make sure that we practice those. And I know I, for one, have had to practice my mentoring skills a lot in order to get to where I mentor today, without a doubt. Ula Ojiaku So did you have to go through training? Kerrie Dorman Yep, lots of training, lots of self reflection. I went through an assessment centre twice with Professor David Clutterbuck, who told me that I needed to improve and on the back of that, I got some very special mentoring sessions with Bob Garvey, and I don't know if you've come across either of these gentlemen, but they are absolute experts in our field, and it was an incredible learning curve for me, being mentored by Bob Garvey. He was so giving and really made me look at what I was doing in terms of my mentoring practice, and that's where the real lessons came. Lots and lots of practice taking on board honest, upfront feedback and doing something about it. Ula Ojiaku What's the difference between mentoring and coaching? Kerrie Dorman The difference is that anybody can actually be a coach as long as they have the qualifications that go with coaching. Coaching is a lot more stringent and structured in terms of the need for supervision and accreditation. Anyone can call themselves a mentor if they have a little bit of experience, well, I know there's a lot of mentors out there calling themselves mentors and they've probably just read a book, but anyway, let's not go onto my rant. So the difference is, is that coaches need accreditation and qualifications, mentors need experience, as well as the training and the qualifications. So the experience is absolutely key. And the other big difference is that as mentors, we can talk about our experiences and our stories, whereas coaches, it's more about empowering the coachee to build their own stories and use their own experience in order to develop. So actually a mixture of both is what you really want. Ula Ojiaku And would you also as a mentor tell them what to do or do you give them the option to choose? Kerrie Dorman So the golden rule is that any decisions or any way that the mentee chooses to go forward is the responsibility of the mentee. We can call our stories hindsight, advice, whatever, but actually the responsibility stops, the buck stops with the mentee, and that's very important. So there cannot be a situation where a mentee can turn around and say, well, you told me to go down this particular route, that just doesn't happen. And that's part of being a professional and having our standards, and that's making crystal clear that the mentee is responsible for their own actions and decisions. Ula Ojiaku And you said that you now do a lot of work through the ABM, helping, mentoring business owners. Could you share maybe a bit more about this? Kerrie Dorman I have a small handful of mentees now, and my focus is all about supporting, training mentors to be the best that they can be, and I also work with bigger organisations and help them to set up mentoring programs that actually provide a return to the mentor, mentee and the organisation. So that's providing the motivation and the training, the know-how, and the monitoring, just making sure that everybody's getting what they want from it, because unfortunately, due to all sorts of things, normally lack of resource and knowledge, mentoring programs are tick box exercises, and so it's my mission to make sure that the majority of mentoring programs provide a value to all stakeholders. Ula Ojiaku And what would you say, in the situations where you felt were highly productive, or the mentees seemed to get the most out of the relationship, what was the difference between that and maybe an average mentor mentee relationship? Kerrie Dorman To be honest, for me, the difference has been the ego of the mentee. I've only had a couple of frustrating mentoring relationships, luckily. So I have actually reflected on this as to why I couldn't quite break through, why I couldn't provide them what I felt that they needed, what they thought they needed, and actually it was a little bit of arrogance and big egos on the mentees side, and as soon as I realised that I wasn't going to provide any value because of those barriers, then I just called it a day. I didn't say, I can't work with you because you've got a big ego, I just positioned it that we'd come to the end of our relationship and that it was time for them to look at somebody else with a different skill set, because otherwise it's unfair and it's frustrating and we shouldn't be in that position. I love the analogy of the mentoring door. So when both mentors and mentees turn up for their session, they go through the mentoring door, they're zapped of all the stuff that they're carrying around with them and they turn up and they're both present and they're good to go in that moment in time for mentoring, because we're all so busy and we're all thinking about all sorts of various different things - the last meeting, the mentee that's about to do this big bid, or whatever it is. We have to be able to learn to leave all of that at the door and be present. Ula Ojiaku Are there practices to help you with this? Kerrie Dorman Yeah, so I quite like Julie Starr. She wrote The Mentoring Manual. So she talks about quietening the mind, and it's about just taking as long as you need. So everyone's different, someone could walk through that mentoring door and have a quiet mind, just like that. Other people might need five minutes. Other people might need 20 minutes. It's up to you to know your own limitations, but when you walk through the mentoring door, the ability to take a breath and quiet your mind, and be present. That's my question to myself - is my mind quiet? And am I ready to take on the next lot of information that's about to be divulged to me. So that's a key phrase for me, quietening the mind, and she's got a couple of exercises in there actually. And the other one is the one that's just come out by Andy Lopata and Ruth Gotian is the Financial Times Guide to Effective Mentoring It's got some fantastic real life case studies in there and lots of people have been interviewed, myself included actually, I'm in there, and it's really good effective reading for mentors and mentees. Ula Ojiaku So, as leaders, how can we make sure that, one, we're effective as mentors in our organisations, and two, how can we make sure that that culture of mentoring is embedded in the organisation? Kerrie Dorman Two great questions. So the first one, how do we make sure that we are as effective as possible as mentors? So the only way is to keep self-developing and learning new exercises, having new tools and really getting involved with peer to peer discussions, and learning from each other. I really enjoy the webinars that come out of Henley Business School. There's a whole mentoring library there, and so I try and listen to one every six weeks as a minimum so that I'm just gaining a new perspective, making sure that I am actually on top of my game, but it takes work, because again, we're busy and we've just got to make sure that we do it. So I diarise Friday mornings to do that, and it's very rare that I'll give up that time unless I'm facing a deadline of some sort. It's rare that I'll give up that time to self-develop or network. So it's about giving ourselves the space in order to grow and to keep developing. How do we shout about it inside an organisation and make sure that it's effective? Well it's our responsibility as mentors to ensure that our time is providing a return, and the only way an organisation can do that is by monitoring and getting the results, and there's all sorts of ways that we can do that, but getting feedback and scoring and making sure that mentors are getting what they need to get out of a mentoring relationship as well as the mentees is absolutely key. So when I'm running an initiative inside of an organisation, I get mentors and mentees to fill out a feedback form at the end and getting quite specific, but also to score one to 10, 10 being highly beneficial, and so we get a hardcore number at the end so we can see and where it's not providing value for somebody, then you go in and we find out how, what we can do to improve. Again, it's just continuous development. So really as mentors, it's about making sure that there is a return and that it's monitored, and if it's not, shout about it. Ula Ojiaku What other books have you recommended the most to people and why? Kerrie Dorman So apart from Julie Starr's Mentoring Manual, the one I have suggested the most frequently is Bounce by Matthew Syed. So the reason why I love Bounce so much is because he provides an argument that we are not born with talent. It is absolutely something that we have to work at, and the whole book is about his research to prove that. And in my journey as a mentor, I know I've had to put in the hours and the purposeful practice and the self-development to be the mentor that I am today. We are not born natural mentors, and I'm quite happy to be challenged on that, so that's the reason why I shout about his book, because it's all about keeping at it and building up your hours to be an expert in your field, and I feel very strongly about that. The other book is a book that I read during the pandemic during lockdown and it did amazing things for me as a person, not just as a mentor, but as a person, and it's The Choice by Edith Eger, and she's still alive. She is an Auschwitz survivor. She's in her nineties now, and it's her story about the choices that we make, the choices that are open to us and, and how we make them, and she links it to the choices that she had in Auschwitz and as an escapee. Powerful, powerful stuff, but written beautifully, and really resonated with me. So yes, they're my two favourites, Bounce by Matthew Syed and The Choice by Edith Eger. Ula Ojiaku And if the audience wants to get in touch with you, how can they do so? Kerrie Dorman My details are all over LinkedIn, obviously all over the ABM website on my profile, and I really welcome anybody to get in contact with me for a chat, for discussion, run anything by. I love talking about mentoring, about the power of it, how we can use it to help all sorts of people and situations. So please don't ever hesitate to get in touch. Ula Ojiaku Thank you so much for that, Kerrie. Do you have any final words for the audience that you'd like to leave them with for this episode? Kerrie Dorman Yes. If you're not mentoring, then get at it, and if you don't have a mentor, then find one, because no one is above having a mentor, and it's one of the most rewarding experiences, that we can experience in life. Ula Ojiaku Thank you so, so much, Kerrie. I really have learned a lot and I appreciate the time you've made, the wisdom that you've shared with us. So thank you again.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Natalie Lancer hosts a discussion on the role of coach development, self-awareness and the concept of self in coaching. Dr. Julia Carden presents her research on self-awareness, distinguishing it from self-knowledge and self-consciousness. Heather Frost explores the concept of self, drawing on her doctoral research looking at 25 belief systems, highlighting its complexity and the practical impact of understanding a client's concept of self. Dr Elizabeth Crosse details the three developmental strategies that emerged through her doctoral research: the craft, the being and the art of coaching. We examine: • Why is self-awareness important for coaches? • What is the difference between self-awareness and the concept of self? • How are self-awareness, self-knowledge, and self-consciousness linked? • What are the challenges involved in demonstrating competency vs capacity development? • How can we utilise the coach's and coachee's self-awareness in coaching practice? • What do clients' beliefs about self mean for how coaches tailor their coaching? • How can the three underpinnings of concept of self: stability vs instability, thoughts of self as a unique expression of me vs the self as an illusion, and unity versus multiplicity, be used to generate a concept of self scale? • How does understanding the concept of self increase the coach's self awareness of beliefs and bias? And how can this benefit coaching outcomes? • What is the difference between Continuous Personal and Professional Development (CPPD) and Continuous Professional Development (CPD)? • Why is it more helpful to think of coach development as a learning journey than a linear progression? • How do we know what coaching development opportunities to invest in? • What are some practical ways to develop self-awareness? Self-awareness enables coaches to forge deeper connections with clients and furthermore, it seems we can only take clients as far as we have gone ourselves. We discussed how a focus on preparing the self rather than content, allows coaches to trust their abilities and concentrate on other aspects of their practice. As we wrapped up the episode, the guests shared how engaging and reflecting in formal and informal professional and personal experiences have influenced their development.

For the last 30 years, Mike Green has traveled to 63 countries throughout all 7 continents and has documented over 13,000+ hours of coaching along the way. Through a unique journey of self-discovery and transformation, Mike helps successful leaders achieve goals ordinary coaches would claim are impossible. Great Leaders Are Formed In The Wild. Mike has been quoted to say “You'll never discover the truth about yourself behind a desk, but in the rugged wilderness of Alaska, on the breathtaking plains of the Serengeti or in the stunning Gobi desert.” Whether in group or individual coaching or customized travel expeditions, Mike partners people up the mountain of self-discovery that every great leader in business, sports, or military service must conquer before being transformed. He believes extreme environments will challenge people to become their best version by drawing upon the courage within and achieve new levels of performance. His book "Wandermust, A Hero's Journey To Seven Truths" chronicles some of his travels as well as how he coaches clients in the outdoors. Mike utilizes various methods, including dynamic workshops, virtual coaching, face-to-face coaching, and adventure coaching, to help uncover clients' leadership truths.

The work-life conundrum In this first episode of the miniseries "Coaching with Costas", Costas addresses the work-life conundrum. Below are a few notable highlights: Try to figure out which times of the day you are most effective at work, and in which times are best for you to carry out mundane tasks instead. Once you have done that, plan your time accordingly by time-blocking. Some techniques are very useful for you to focus and manage your time. One example is the Pomodoro technique, which helps you work in 25-minute blocks. One other example is the 3-3-3 technique. Prioritise what is important and urgent. Understand what is important and urgent for you, as opposed to what is important and urgent for the organisation. A great tool to understand yourself is called the “wheel of life”. It is a way of disaggregating the different areas of life that you care about. The wheel of life helps you visualise which areas you are satisfied with and which areas you may need to focus on. “Ikigai' is a great concept to work out your purpose and be less distracted as a result. Overall, the key is to be kinder to ourselves.Overall, the key is to be kinder to ourselves.

Hi, Cheryl, how are you today? Cheryl Hayes Hi, Dorothy, how are you? Happy to be. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Great to have you. Can we get a quick introduction about you, who's Cheryl and a little bit about your story. Cheryl Hayes I am the director of procurement at Striker School Device company, but my whole career the last 20 plus years has been in supply chain worked at EMC and Dell and Siemens and Applied Materials. So large multinational companies and women in technology. So have that own share of challenges as you. I guess and love what I. I'm happy to help here and talk about what we're going to talk about today. Host - Dorothy Mashburn We're talking a lot about confidence, feeling our way in our careers through a male dominated world. The Dell and EMC very tech companies tell us how you felt. What was your first impression when you got in and how you navigated just one or two stories about about that experience? Cheryl Hayes I came into EMCC fresh off. Staying home, raising children and it was quite a culture. Shock for me, I didn't. Know anything about technology I didn't even know how to do a PowerPoint presentation. One thing about AMC, I always say it's like being raised by the nuns working there, right? So they were very sick. I was very, very fortunate. Because we had what was called EMC University, you could take a class in anything that you wanted to know about. You could take a class and I had to learn how to do Excel and pivot tables right? I have to learn how to do. A PowerPoint you could take business acumen. When I started EMC, they were smaller. They didn't have the breadth of products that they had, but they would have, they would launch new products and then they would have after work one and a. Half hours or. So of, you know, learning about the new product. It was just the natural curiosity that I have and I wanted to learn all of this stuff and I I think I have it on my resume. During my 16 years there, I took. 100 and. 11 classes some. Of them were mandated, particularly as I rose up in the ranks at at director level. We had to do a lot of three 60s and personality type tests and learning how to manage groups and in certain classes that we had to. Take and I also had taken a kind of four day MBA program that not something you could just sign up for. It's kind of nominated for that. Again, it's just that that natural curiosity and wanting to learn and wanting to be better, doing what I did have to learn, particularly being a woman in a company that was known for being Boys Club is, you know, you have to have your voice. Right. And you have to. You ask for what you want and. Ask for what? You need and I think that. Became much more prevalent the higher up I went in that company, but again, I was very fortunate to to be part of that, no. Host - Dorothy Mashburn What was the trigger to say that I've got to ask and kind of advocate for myself? Cheryl Hayes Yeah, I have a great story about that. So I have this really nice boss who. Really admired what I did and was. Really depended on. So I went in for. A review and he gave me a very good review as a top review that you could get. And I had with me in. A folder, the job description of the job Rep for the next level. It was a senior. Is still an individual contributor, but was at the. Senior level. And so he gave me my review. Glowing review. So happy to have me. On his team and that was it. And I said, well, how come you didn't promote me? I I really thought I. Was going to get promoted and. He said. I just didn't think about it. And I said. Well, here's the job description for the. Senior level and there was something in. There about doing reverse auctions and I. Said. And I'm the only. One in the group. That has done reverse auctions. So I'm doing all of these things and I. Don't have the. Title and I'm not getting paid for. It paid for it and he said. I I don't have a good answer for you, can you? Give me a. Couple of days and I learned a very valuable lesson. Then, if you don't ask. Or if you don't let your manager know. And other people. What your aspirations are or you know what you want to do? Or what you. Need if you don't ask, you don't get. You know it's. Going to be the same for your. Salary negotiations, right? You don't ask, you're not going. To get as humans who wired for fear and maybe women more so, particularly in business and trying to get past that and have that confidence which you will have over time, you know when you're new in a role or you're new in. A company you want to be. Like so, you're not going to take as many chances or you. You may not say as much as you may want to say, or you may not. Want to stand out like? I really think maybe we should do. It this way or this? Might be a. Better idea because you just kind of want to. Go with the flow and. You want to be like. You know, it's getting past that fear. Help get you where you want. To go, that's. Speaker Courage I. Cheryl Hayes Guess is what we're. Talking about here is learn. There's a learned behavior too, but courage is is a learned behavior. It's not something that people have more. Of than others. It's something that can be learned and it's being comfortable with the uncomfortable. And it takes some time. And maybe you start small, you know. I don't like. I don't drink coffee, so maybe for some reason for health reasons I need to start drinking coffee, right? And I'm really nervous about drinking. Speaker That's not. Cheryl Hayes Coffee and I don't like it and I'm afraid it might do something to me, but maybe and I'm using. It as an example. Maybe I just have a half a cup, you know? And then eventually, you know, you, you can move on. And eventually, oh, I can. Have a cup of coffee. Not a problem, right? So yeah. Chunking things up and starting small to get past that. Fear and. Develop more courage. Host - Dorothy Mashburn That's a really good point that we are wired for fear and women more so. Why do you think that is they? Why do we want to be liked so much worries? Cheryl Hayes Pleasers, right. You know where mothers were were you know, maternal, you know. And where you know it's new for women. To the executives in the workforce, right, we we haven't been that. We've been what administrative? Yeah, and. And that's what we're best at. And that's what we know. And you know, there's always been a bias, I have to say. I have noticed it's higher in technology than it is in medical. I think there's more of an even split and particularly it's strike, are they pretty good? But I think it's getting better. You know, I've seen that evolution and I and I hate the disparity. It's, you know, them versus US. And we're all together to be saying we're all the. Same rather than. Well, she's a woman, so she's gonna do this. So he's, you know, I just I I want us to get to the gender neutral, right, that we it doesn't matter if you're a male or female. In that job. Whoever does the best job will win. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Right, right. But there is an awareness that we bring a huge counter perspective. To anything we do. Yeah, let me dig a little bit deeper on when you moved from trade or or didn't think about asking for a promotion ahead of time and then you made the transition to asking what was that that in between your life for you? How did you practice? How did you build up your confidence? Cheryl Hayes I'm very good at networking so. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Yeah, you are. Cheryl Hayes What I did was. So what I did was. Speaker And that's. Cheryl Hayes You know, trying to meet with people that you don't know or people that are at a higher level or an executive level. And so I did a lot of networking both and I'm still to this day internally and externally. People want to help. Generally I find people want to help. I I love to hear. People's stories when you approach it. I I need your. Help or I gotta ask you something. Or I'd love your opinion on the. People are pretty open to that. I read some books again, I took some classes at the MC, you know, and all of that just kind of helped. I mean at the end. Of the. Day it's on you and. You just kind of have to move those boulders out. Of the way. Realize that, yeah, you're gonna you're. Going to fail sometimes you're going to be. A whole lot of yourself. Sometimes you can ask. Us something that you know they going to think you're crazy. They're just gonna. Say flat out. Why did you even? Ask for that right? So you know, and that takes a little. Getting over right? Because you make a big blunder or you make you know, a mistake we've all made them all. Make 10 mistakes a day. I mean, we all make them right? Realizing that we're all human and and. I think we tend to. Put folks that we think very highly of up here and you know, we're kind. Of here and yeah. Well, saying you know, so I think it's just a behavior that you have to instill in yourself and you have to. Work at it. We have imposter syndrome. Right. Speaker MMM. Cheryl Hayes I'm really not that good and it's like, and sometimes even today, as many years as I've had in supply chain and I feel pretty confident about what I. Know and what I can do? Host - Dorothy Mashburn You know. Cheryl Hayes The other days I'm like. I'm not that good. I'm like, no, no, I have to talk myself out. Of it, yes you are, you know. You know and and. Because you do have those moments where human. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Impostor syndrome comes up so many times in any negotiation because you're doubting yourself. Thing that was really resonated. Someone said to me was if you have impostor syndrome, that means. You're learning and. Because the more you learn the, the more you realize how little you know. Cheryl Hayes Oh, that's. Host - Dorothy Mashburn So yeah, so it's it's a really cool way of looking at it to say to yourself, well, that means I'm getting. Smarter or a? Bigger expert than the thing I do. Cheryl Hayes That's wonderful. It's changing that narrative that that's a wonderful way to. Look at it, yeah. I think you just saved a lot. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Wondering just. Cheryl Hayes Of people Dorothy right there. Host - Dorothy Mashburn You said something about curiosity. I wonder if that helped you with your network. Tell us about young. Cheryl, how did you? Speaker How did you get? Cheryl Hayes I love hearing people stories. I think you know, at striker, obviously we have our strengths finders, right? Host - Dorothy Mashburn Yes, the Galaxy. Cheryl Hayes And so my number one is individualization. So, and it's a good one for negotiation too, because you know, I do want to hear your story. I want to hear you your. Side, you know negotiations. They're not going to tell me they're weak. Spot, right? I have to figure. It out and I have to. Ask some questions. And I have to probe. You kind of figure out. What's really bothering them and then that's how you can help and you can negotiate, right? And come. Once Applier, he was just so afraid he was small supplier that we were. Going to move the product. That's what we've. Talked about it, but nobody has the appetite. To I'll give you a 2. Year PO, he goes all right and then. I got a cost reduction right. So that's what he was looking for, that's what. He was afraid of. Right, so when you? When you probe or. You ask those. Questions I do like to hear people's stories because that's how you learn, right? Older person, just like we're doing here, you know? And not everything. 'S gonna apply. And not everything's gonna gel with you. But this. Is why we do what we do. You know, we tell these stories and maybe that will help somebody. And so I'm always curious. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Right. Cheryl Hayes I always have been, you know, even as a young child. Speaker Mm-hmm. Yeah. Cheryl Hayes So you know, I love to travel. I like to learn about. New things I love. History for me, it's just fascinating. Probably more part of my personality. Speaker Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Host - Dorothy Mashburn You mentioned individualization. So for our listeners, could you tell us what that strength within Gallup means? Cheryl Hayes So basically it's not a one sided conversation. So it means you, you listen, I've had vendors say this to me that you know you listen and you ask very thought provoking questions. So that's really what? That means it's like, yeah. You want to. Hear the other person's point of view. And not just your own. And you're not closing. It out like you're open to it. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Yeah, yeah. So that means that any person you talk to, you give them individual attention perhaps. Every conversation is unique. Cheryl Hayes Yeah, because everybody's different. And you can embrace that you. I can embrace that. That differentness right. You know that uniqueness to somebody else. And and I can understand it. It comes a little bit with. Empathy as well? I remember our boss telling us, and I just want to let you know Cheryl Sourcing Group score is really low on empathy. And I said, well, it was my #9 or 10. So I said I'll take the hit for the whole team. But you know, individualization has a a component, nothing in it. Host - Dorothy Mashburn There you go. So I'm wondering, you know, if we if we pivot to salary negotiations. And you use that individualization technique. How would that benefit you like listening or? Cheryl Hayes Yeah, that's a great question. I think as they go. Through the role and they explain the role what? The role is. Right. What you're going to be. Doing how many? People are you? Going to have working for you, you. Know is it global? So that means you're going to be working. A bunch of different. You know, there's a lot of travel. You have to figure out what? Worth to you and then. And you can use. That to negotiate. OK, well, you know, especially after you've done some market research or what? You know what you think you should be paid. This is what I think that job is worth to me based on the information that you've told me, you can use that do you've asked your questions and learned about the role as much as you can, and it's hard in an hour. To do to know everything right? But what you're gathering what that role is, what? The value that you bring. So this is what you're saying you need. This is how the value I bring. In that role, I. Could say things like I traveled my whole life. Role requires a lot of travel. I don't get yet why? I don't know why. But I don't you know, so. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Yeah, that's a good value. Cheryl Hayes You know I don't. Get sick. Hardly ever. I should knock on my head here, but hardly ever. So it makes me reliable. You know, I have very high. Employee survey scores. I mean, there's certain things that I bring to. The table because I'm more. Lots of years of experience I. Bring that mentoring piece, too so you you can establish your value to the position. What you believe that position is? Worth you? Ask for that. I don't ever come out with a. Number when I'm negotiating. I want them to tell me the range because I want to know if they're even the right range and whatever number. They come up with. There's probably at least 10% more that's available and you just. Have to ask for it now I have asked. Over asked and I've lost. Help on some opportunities because. I've ever asked have to you. Know be reasonable, but there's other things maybe could ask for stock, for example. So no additional stock or that type of thing, so. Yeah, you should look. At negotiation as an entire package with your salary doc, your bonus and then additional parts that you may get or additional. Benefits that you may get because it's all-encompassing and I've had people ask for additional time, vacation and things like that. Always ask for what you. Feel you deserve. To get them to give you the number. First, because it. Was will weaken your negotiation. If you give them a number there, there have been cases where I've had to spit out a number and I. It's a gamble, right? And I think, like I said, I've lost a couple of opportunities because the number I said is too high. Speaker Right. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Well, yeah, we've done an episode on that actually to how to create a average number. Yeah, and if. Cheryl Hayes You throw out a number, you can say, look, you know, and generally what I'll do is look, I'm looking for the entire package, which includes stock bonus and salary. And this is the kind of area I want to be in. So how can you get there and then? Then you can get them to talk about I mean. Piece they they tend to be pretty much open with that so. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Yep, Yep. Cheryl Hayes This is your bonus. And then the salary they play around with. Because they want to get. As cheap as they. Yes, you wanna get you wanna get as much as you. Can cause. We all know how it works, right? Two 3% raises, that's. All you're gonna get, right? So unless you. Plan on moving around all. The time which is hard. I don't have so much of an appetite for it as. Maybe some someone earlier in. Their career does because it's really hard starting over. You constantly prove yourself. You have to develop relationships. Have to learn a lot. More for me again I have that. Natural curiosity, I like to. Learn it's not that easy because you have to navigate. I have to get people I. Started remote as striker. I didn't even. Know my team. You know, so. Speaker It was really. Host - Dorothy Mashburn And during the pandemic, if I remember. Cheryl Hayes Yeah, yeah, it started in. Speaker Right. Cheryl Hayes March 2020. Yeah. So you know, that's that's hard. You know, developing that trust over time. Host - Dorothy Mashburn So there is a cost you're saying right to moving around. So you've got to factor that into, yeah. Cheryl Hayes Yes, because we can all make more money going somewhere else. Host - Dorothy Mashburn You know once. Cheryl Hayes You've been in A roll. For a while. You know 2 or 3% raises, that's not. Market rate, yeah. I think that's a lot trickier because companies just don't have the appetite for that. They can't be doing that for everybody. I mean, I found out I was hiring a girl in California. And I had asked for her salary information and the recruiter by accident sent me one of my peers, the guy, his information, who had just been promoted to director. I was director two years before him he made. More money than me. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Gender pay gap. Cheryl Hayes Is when I was furious and there was nothing I could do like I. Couldn't I couldn't. Say anything because I didn't want to get the recruiter and. You know, this happened years ago, I. Looked back at it and I thought. Speaker I probably should. Cheryl Hayes Have said something, but again, I didn't and. There was a there was a class action lawsuit. With Dell, that they weren't paying female. Directors California as much. And so it it stung. It really stung. And I was so far under the curve. Now there was one. Year and this is the. The first time that they had ever done that, they redid the salaries, so they they brought them back up to market rate and gave me 12%. And it wasn't during raise time. So more level set me but. That you have to. Make choices so you have to decide. Is the money. What's important to me that I'm going to have to leave even if I like my. If I'm going to make more money. To try to get more out of a company internally, that's really tricky and to be honest. Host - Dorothy Mashburn It's good to have clarity and transparency, right, because there are some battles that you can fight and win. And some you. May not be. Able to and then you have to use a different strategy. Speaker Right. Host - Dorothy Mashburn So one of the things that we started off with is confidence and anxiety over asking. So I'm wondering, could you perhaps tie your curiosity and how that helped you with confidence when you said that? I was thinking perhaps because you come at it from asking questions you don't feel like you're engaging in this kind of nebulous. Battle with someone. Cheryl Hayes Yeah, right. The more you, the more you know, the more confident you feel, right? So we ask those questions and. You or you learn about some. You can talk to it or the more that you you develop that confidence. I know something about this or I could use this tactic, you know, just what we're doing here. You know, hopefully we'll help somebody when they're trying to negotiate a salary. Right. Trying to negotiate something that they need for themselves. Right. And it's going to. Be uncomfortable. I mean again, because we're wired. For fear and it's just. It's easier to do nothing, but if you do nothing, the reward is nothing. Again, using that curiosity, learning, asking questions, reading. I read a lot too. Yeah, you know and. Again, I was telling you I like to look at. A lot of short. Podcasts and a lot of short. I like to read a lot. Speaker Of little short little. Cheryl Hayes Articles on LinkedIn or whatever, and so you get some. Tidbits all the time because, well, busy. Host - Dorothy Mashburn I think that's. Cheryl Hayes What's helped me the. Most just to know that confidence. Host - Dorothy Mashburn And I love that you're sharing your experience with us because trying to fast track, right? So whatever we've learned over like the last 20 years or we can put it in a package and hand it to someone so they can. They can jump start. So I like the attention you brought to us on curiosity because. It seems like. If you're curious, maybe you can get over your fears. Cheryl Hayes Yeah, I think that's a good way to. Look at it again. It's constantly have to work on and talk. Yourself out of but. It's a learned behavior and and that's the the point I want to drive home. You know, it's a learned behavior and it can. Be learned, yes. Host - Dorothy Mashburn You've set us up really well, Cheryl. Today we should be thinking about curiosity. This is the first in a long series nightly. Be digging deeper into this concept of curiosity and negotiations. Cheryl Hayes Love it and thank you for having me, Dorothy. Host - Dorothy Mashburn Thank you. You take care. Bye bye. There you have it, my friends. Someone who is in the arena daily, her focus on courage, curiosity and the road to standing. Up for your worth. I hope you take a moment to let her story sink in and take pieces of it to apply to your situation. Whatever stage you might be at, remember that courage and curiosity are learned behaviors. So go ahead, give them a try. Start small. And then accelerate from there. Alright, my friends, signing off for today. Bye for now.

Maria Jeffers (Transformational Coach) I am passionate about helping ambitious professionals to feel daily joy and excitement in life rather than any of the following: Overwhelm, Stress, Procrastination, Anxiety/worry, Fear of Judgement, Self-consciousness, Lack of confidence, Lack of self-belief, Resistant to change, Perfectionism, Exhaustion, Lack of Trust, Lack of focus. In 2021 I completed the EMCC coaching accreditation and became a licensed user of the globally evidenced mental toughness assessment. I have also completed a 12-week international high performance coaching programme, which enables me to coach at an even deeper level. Having both a theoretical and practical understanding of the mindset and behaviours required for achieving high performance enables me to support others to achieve their vision. I am passionate about building a strong sense of wellbeing in others, as without wellbeing high performance is unsustainable, can be unenjoyable and lead to burnout. After many years of investing in my self-development coupled with my corporate background within the occupational psychology field, I am 100% confident that I can help others to thrive. 'Knowing' is different from 'Doing'. We can read all the books we want; however, it is action plus the right mindset that leads to results.
