I’m not long back from a relaxing holiday where I took the chance to read about less specific topics than coaching to see what ideas came up.
In terms of what I found useful one thing came out top of my list that I thought I would share.
I think about relationship building A LOT – not only as it’s a key part of effective coaching interactions, but also because it’s important to me across my life. So what I found useful was the idea that we have relationships with many things as well as other people….
These are some examples but for each individual there could be (many) others.
Why did I find this idea useful?
Recognising other things as relationships allowed me to think about the things I do (and the changes I might like to make) armed with some questions that will hopefully lead to more effective outcomes. For example – which of my needs are being met in this relationship, does this relationship make me feel how I want to feel and what would I need to do to build a better relationship in this area that allows me to live the life I want to live?
