In this interview, we talk with Executive Coaches, Jeff Nally and Kimcee McAnally who are the authors of an article in our March issue “Journey to Excellence” entitled:  Coaching Supervision in Organizations ~ A game-changer to improve the impact of coaching.
The thought of working with an experienced coach to support leaders is a well-accepted practice across corporations and industries around the world. Leaders readily engage with coaches during leadership transitions, challenging situations, and to enhance their own skills as leaders in their organizations.

But who takes care of and develops the coach? Often times, coaches are independent and run their own business, fending for themselves when it comes to their own self-care and personal development. Coaching supervision is a well-established practice in many parts of the world to support the coaches themselves as they coach organizational leaders.

The purpose of coaching supervision is to enable coaches to introspectively look at themselves, how they coach, and about their professional health as a coach. As a result, coaches are better able to develop and enhance their own skills so they can better support the leaders and organizations. According to a 2021 publication, “The role of the supervisor is that of a supporter… in the professional development journey and not that of an assessor” (Hemmer et al.)

In this podcast, we will discuss supervision – how it works, the benefits, and how to incorporate coaching supervision for yourself as a coach, or in an organization.

Dr. Kimcee McAnally is an accredited Coach Supervisor and Partner at CoachSource. Her background includes extensive executive level business experience; academic qualifications (Ph.D. & M.S. in Organizational Psychology, B.S. in Psychology); coaching certification (EMCC European Individual Accreditation/EIA Senior Practitioner), and accredited Coach Supervisor (EMCC ESIA European Supervision Individual Accreditation). Kimcee is passionate about coaching and supervision and contributes to the industry through research, publications, and conference presentations. Kimcee co-authored the book, "Executive Coaching for Results: the Definitive Guide for Developing Organizational Leaders," published by Berrett-Koehler and recent chapters in “Innovations in Leadership Coaching” and “Coaching Supervision: Voices from the Americas.

Jeff Nally is an executive coach, coaching supervisor, and professional speaker inspiring leaders and coaches through the neuroscience of human interaction.

In this episode, I talk with Jeff and Kimcee about their article published in our March 2023 issue. 

In this interview, we talk with Master Mentor Coach, Clare Norman, about her article " Un-learning - The key to mentor coaching." 

Before we became coaches, we each developed ways of seeing the world that kept us safe or gave us a sense of belonging to the "tribe," whether that tribe was a family system, a peer group, or our coach training cohort.

The best coaching works on the “who” of the thinker, so that the “what” falls into place with ease (per Marcia Reynolds in Coach the Person, Not the Problem). The same holds true for learning to coach.

The best training and the best mentor coaching work on the “who” of the coach, their beliefs, mindsets and paradigms, so that the “what” of the coaching competencies falls into place with ease.

In this podcast, we will discuss what mentor coaching is, why we need to change our our mindsets and how we can apply them to our coaching practices.  

With over 20 years of coaching experience, Clare Norman MCC is highly sought after by other expert coaches, as well as successful coach training companies as a Master Mentor Coach. 
Clare looks to continually sharpen individuals’ coaching edge and upskill mentor coaches so they can deliver high-quality feedback to their coaches-in-development.

Her laser focus on mindset shifts and her knack for spotting marginal gains has made her a go-to person for coaches looking for mentorship and practical, meaningful ways to improve their practice.

With an international following of both her coaching peers and senior leadership, Clare is making a difference to the world of work via the professional application of coaching.

In this episode, I talk with the trio about their article published in our March 2023 issue. 

In this interview, we talk with co-authors, co-creators, co-supervisors, co-coaches and co-friends Kerry Woodcock, Larissa Thurlow, and Sherry Matheson about their article " Reflecting on Reflection ~ The journey to coaching maturity."

We recognize and honor that as coaches, we are all at different levels of maturity. Reflecting in and on our practice, where do we consciously and unconsciously enable or inhibit our development and journey to coaching mastery? 

The journey to maturity invites you to step into a review of your path so far, stand still long enough to notice where you are now, and look towards what lies ahead for you, both as a coach and as a human being. 

In this podcast, we will discuss the three practices of reflection, Pre-flective, Reflexive and Reflective, the metaphors associated with those practices and how we can apply them to our coaching practices.  

Kerry Woodcock, Larissa Thurlow and Sherry Matheson have had the privilege of working and playing together in a range of roles and combinations over many years, as co-coaches, colleagues, co-leads, co-supervisors, co-authors and friends.

 In 2021, they leaned into their courage and commitment to form a powerful, pioneering, co-creative trio to develop and co-lead a Team Coaching Supervision Training Program delivered through Novalda. 

Weaving together lightness and depth, championing and challenge, with a dash of irreverence, they often joke that they are two parts sparkle and one part grass stains – no parts assigned! 

The trio are all certified Supervisors with Larissa holding an ESIA (EMCC Global Supervision Individual Award) with Sherry and Kerry to follow later this year.
Join us as we learn more about the practice of reflection.

In this episode, I talk with the trio about their article published in our March 2023 issue. 

In this interview, we talk with Damian Goldvarg about his article entitled, "The Evolution of Coaching Super-Vision."

As professional coaching has continued to grow in popularity worldwide, coaching supervision has gained a significant role and acceptance in the last few years.  One of the challenges in the understanding and development of coaching supervision is that the word "supervision" may have a negative connotation associated with management, guidance or quality control.  Damian prefers to separate the word in two – super-vision – to emphasize the nature of the reflective practice focused on offering a space to learn about our work for new coaches as well as for very experienced coaches.

In this podcast, we will discuss the three functions that coaching super-vision serves, the competencies that EMCC holds around supervision, and learn the differences between mentor coaching and supervision. 

Dr. Damian Goldvarg is a world-renowned executive coach with over thirty years of experience in the field. Born and raised in Argentina, he has worked with individuals and organizations in over sixty countries, offering services in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. He is a Master Certified Coach (MCC), received his Ph.D. in Organizational Psychology from Alliant University in California., and is also an Accredited Team Coach (ACTC), Professional Certified Speaker (CSP), and an Accredited Coach Supervisor (ESIA).  He facilitates certifications in Professional Coaching, Mentor Coaching, Team Coaching, and Coaching Supervision. Dr. Goldvarg was the 2013-2014 International Coaching Federation Global President, and authored and coauthored eight coaching books.
