I had a coaching session. The client had seen a certain behaviour in a person, they had previously seen in another person and was therefore worried that their experience with this new person would be the same as before. After talking about this behaviour, it became clear that the client had only seen it once,… Continue reading It is a hot pan or a cat?

The power of not saying anything
One of the coaching tools, I use the most, is a quite simple one. When a coachee has shared their thoughts or beliefs, I give room for silence.

When you compromise, it does mean that you are not getting fully… Continue reading The art of compromising
