Coaching - Self Coaching. (are you good at it?)
Richard Morin • June 5, 2018
For best results in what is, your life, learn to coach your-self. Once you are competent at this, then coach others.
You don't repair your car, device or computer yourself because you are not competent at it, so why would you try to motivate / inspire / train others on your own? Training pays huge dividends, but like any investment you have to keep at it or the initial investment will just fade away. What are the aspects of your business that you would like to perk up or change? Let's talk.

Are you and the team you are trying to build, confident? What have you done to make it so? Have you engaged in role playing for the various sales, customer service, HR & interviewing people on your team? Confidence is critical if you and your team / company are to succeed as you might, but it is a transient element as everything changes so often and in ways that leaves some people behind. Role playing is but one of the many tools you can employ to help people step up and become more fluid in how they deliver their message and communications in general. Another great tool is the sharing of books whereby the material becomes fodder for short and to the point meetings where the content is discussed or debated and the team learns from the session. Confidence you ask? Yes it is tough, and not everyone is confident all of the time, but we can all learn to improve and become more competent which leads to confidence. Bringing in a trainer / mentor can clearly help, the investment will more than pay for itself.

People are habitual, and YOU are no different. How will you accomplish those things that you say are important ... to YOU? Reading helps, and although fiction is OK, it will not help you in your quest. Mentors can do a lot for YOU, that is "IF" you listen AND apply those things that you and your mentor agree upon. "IF" you are coachable, who is your coach? Experience has taught me that the future is always different and that what I have done is not as important as what I will do. Therefore ... developing discipline, an ability to ask and then listen in order to learn and understand while remaining the moment, without distractions are what comprises some of the behaviours and traits that can help pave the way for YOU.
