Coaching tips are not always easy to swallow. And while there may be some people who care about your book, that’s not why you wrote it. You wanted to make a difference for people. At some level you know that everyone sees that book will care less than you do about it than you do. Sometimes you might not even want to read your own stuff when you’re done with the day.

Winter is coming, and only the coaches with the best coaching strategy will survive. We are just transitioning into a new season, a new economy. The past 20 years has been the financial equivalent of fall. We’ve been enjoying the benefits of the harvest. We have been consuming like crazy over the past 10 years.

Could a Certain Guru Use Some Coaching Tips Right Now?
Could a certain guru use some of his own coaching tips after his show was cancelled after 2 airings? There is quite a buzz right now about his show, “Breakthrough” that received a mere 0.7 rating.

In both realms, interaction, collaboration and improvisation play major roles. It takes two to tango–coach and … [Read more...]

TV Music Metaphor For Insight Into Best Coaching Practices
As a coach, your best coaching practices require you to look deeply at the issues your clients bring you. While watching television recently, my husband’s quirky sense of humor produced a question which led me to think about how TV music is a sort of metaphor for beliefs. It was a scene in a perfectly ordinary supermarket, and suddenly there was an orchestra playing. His question–“what’s that invisible orchestra doing in a supermarket?” What does TV Music have to do with beliefs? Have you ever … [Read more...]
