The latest thinking from Australia's leading Organisational Coaching specialist, Open Door Coaching.

    Ethics in coaching – the importance of values

    Ethics in coaching – the importance of values

    Over the past few weeks in our Coaching Café we’ve been out exploring the ‘wild west’ of coaching. In particular, the use of AI in Coaching.
    This week in our Coaching Cafe we return to our core, by kicking off a new theme around the ‘ICF Core Competencies’. This series is perfectly timed in the lead up to International Coach Week (13th – 19th May 2024), to give us an opportunity to reflect on ourselves as coaches and on our workplace coaching practice.  We start the series with an exploration of ethics in coaching and the importance of values.
    Join Natalie, Paula and Brigitte for this interactive Coaching Café discussion as we explore the ICF Core Values which underpin the ICF Code of Ethics. This is an opportunity for reflective practice on our alignment to the ICF Core Values.
    If you’ve not joined us for a Coaching Café, now is your opportunity to schedule this time for your professional and personal development.  In addition, you have the opportunity to collect ICF CCEU’s for FREE.  In no time at all, you’ll be looking forward to Friday lunchtimes, just like we all do!

    What if AI can make my coaching better? Putting AI to the test

    What if AI can make my coaching better? Putting AI to the test

    ‘What if AI can make my coaching better?’, I asked. 
    ‘What would that look like? What difference would that make to my coaching?’. 
    ‘Only one way to find out!’ I thought, ‘let’s put it to the test’.
    This week in our Coaching Cafe we continue to discuss a key trend in coaching: the use of AI in coaching. And we turn our thinking to: how we can use AI for continuous improvement in our coaching – specifically to make us better coaches.  And to do this we will take Natalie’s actual transcripts of PCC level recordings and ask AI for feedback on how the coaching could be improved.
    So join Natalie and Paula Jones-Hunt our Resident HR Specialist for this eye-opening Coaching Café, to find out the results of how AI can make us a better coach, including at the top levels of ICF competency.
    If you are a regular, you know the vibe and the great contribution that you make to our discussions; so we look forward to welcoming you back and offering you a value-packed 30 minutes.
    If you’ve not joined us for a Live Coaching Café, now is your opportunity to schedule this time for your professional and personal development.  In addition, you have the opportunity to collect ICF CCEU’s for FREE.  In no time at all, you’ll be looking forward to Friday lunchtimes, just like we all do!

    The use of AI in Coaching - The HR function and Coaching

    The use of AI in Coaching - The HR function and Coaching

    ‘That resume was clearly written by AI’, said one of our clients recently. ‘The issue is that when the candidate interviewed, they were terrible….that’s where good coaching questions come into it’.

    Last week we kicked off a new round of discussions in the Coaching Cafe specifically thinking about the impact of AI on coaching. This week we explore the intersect between AI, HR and quality coaching questions. By the way, we are not trying to catch people out.  We are trying to maximise the human intervention that comes from quality coaching across the HR function.

    So join Paula Jones-Hunt our Resident HR Specialist for this Coaching Café discussion, as we explore the use of AI across the HR function and in particular where AI is no substitute for human intervention.

    The use of AI in coaching (why we shouldn’t bury our heads in the sand)

    The use of AI in coaching (why we shouldn’t bury our heads in the sand)

    In discussing key trends for 2024 in coaching we agreed that the use of AI in coaching is in the top three. Luckily, you do not have to be a ‘technological guru’ to understand how artificial intelligence is influencing coaching, and we feel it’s not something that we can ignore.  So this week we kick off a new round of discussions specifically thinking about the impact of AI on coaching.
    Join Natalie and Paula for this Coaching Café discussion as we explore and pros and cons of the use of AI and why coaches in the workplace need to not bury their heads in the sand over this trend.

    Burnout - what are we actually doing?

    Burnout - what are we actually doing?

    In discussing key trends for 2024 in coaching we agreed that prevalence of mental health concerns and burnout in the workplace will be a major concern. In addition, the legislative response that enshrines the ‘right to disconnect’.  And last week Paula introduced us to this discussion. 
    However, fresh from a week away (yes that’s a photo from her holidays above), it occurred to Natalie, with all this discussion and ‘prevalence’ what are we actually doing about it? What steps are we taking to ensure our mental health and prevent burnout as leaders, managers, coaches and in our many roles? What are the barriers that our clients (and ourselves) from taking real action? What does good coaching look like around this topic?
    Join Natalie and Paula for this Coaching Café discussion as we also think about the role of coaching and coaching tools to apply to the topic.
    If you are a regular, you know the vibe and the great contribution that you make to our discussions; so we look forward to welcoming you back and offering you a value-packed 30 minutes each Friday.
