    Episode #162: ADHD

    We began our exploration of Neurodiversity in Coaching in episode 146, with a bit of an introduction to the topic and the terminology around both neurodiversity and neurodivergence.    Today we want to venture a little deeper into one particular neurodivergence - ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder to give it its full title. ADHD is a phenomenon that is receiving increasing attention within the coaching world and it is very likely that you will come across coachees that identify as living with ADHD.   In this episode we take a look at some of the nuances of ADHD and Tom shares his own personal journey to gaining a better understanding of the topic and trying to sort out the facts from the theories.     Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #161: Deeper Coaching Presence

    We have discussed both presence and absence in the coaching room in previous episodes, and today we want to venture a little deeper around the concept of presence in coaching.    We all know when we have experienced someone who is fully present for us; someone who has listened and allowed us to feel heard and understood.    Presence makes a difference.    We will all have also experienced times when our coach has been a little distracted or not fully engaged. Coaching presence is such a powerful phenomenon and at the same time, something quite intangible, so we thought we'd try and define it for our listeners.   Join us for this episode as we explore what coaching presence is, why it's important, and some ways in which you can cultivate a more powerful presence in your coaching sessions. Resources:   Questions asked in this podcast: What prevents you from being fully present? What pulls you out of presence? How/What do you notice when your presence has slipped?   Journaling Prompts: What pulls you out of presence? How is your Coaching Presence now?   What supports and nourishes it? How do you want your presence to be? How do you know when you've slipped out of presence?   What's the gap you are bridging?   What gets in your way of being present? How do you want to be with yourself as you practice becoming more present?       Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #160: Coaching Tools: Questions from Stoic Philosophy

    What have the Stoics ever done for us?   Well apart from aqueducts, wine, irrigation, sanitation, the roads, medicine, public order and the baths, the Stoics also gave us a few different ways of thinking about events that we have no control over.    The Roman stoics, Seneca and Marcus Aureleus and the Greek stoics, Zeno of Citium and Epictetus, along with a few other philosophers, used their ancient wisdom to unlock what was going on for their contemporaries. That same wisdom may provide novel ways of viewing our own environment and provide us with some alternative perspectives that could benefit us in our modern world.   In this episode we explore three stoic questions that could help our coachees to move forward in their thinking.    Join us as we explore a little stoic philosophy that we might choose to bring into the coaching space.     Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #159: Coaching Tools: Positive Psychology Interventions

    Positive Psychology is a popular coaching approach with the doctors on our transformational coaching diploma. It feels uplifting to coach using positive psychology, but there is much more to the approach than just inviting people to smile more and see put a more optimistic spin on events.    We've talked about Positive Psychology in previous episodes, and in this episode we dedicated to explore in more detail some of the research backed tools that are known as Positive Psychology Interventions or PPIs, and consider how they might be of use in the coaching room.   Resources:  For more information on PPIs visit:  https://positivepsychology.com/positive-psychology-interventions/      Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #158 - Coaching Topic: Work-Life Balance

    A topic that is frequently brought to the coaching room in one guise or another is work-life balance.

    Episode #157: Some Psychological Terms To Help Raise Awareness of Your Coaching

    In this episode we are exploring  four different psychological phenomena that might just show up in the coaching room.    They are concepts that originate in the world of psychoanalysis and therapy, and whilst their presence may well have been seen as problematic, they are also commonly occurring  phenomena for ordinary people and information for us in the coaching room.     The four concepts that we discuss in this episode are transference, counter-transference, projection, and parallel processing.    Join us for this fascinating dive into some often mentioned, but poorly understood, concepts.       Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #156: Coaching face to face versus online

    Whether you are with your coachee or not when you're coaching them will depend on a number of variables, but there's a good chance these days that you are more likely to be in a virtual coaching room than sitting face to face with your coachee. Some telephone coaching still happens but not so much, these days.  In this episode, we discuss the pros and cons of both ways of working, and some things to consider as a coach. Whether you prefer to be in the room where it happens or you embrace the efficiency of being coaching online this conversation provides you with the opportunity to reflect on the different ways of working as a coach.  Enjoy the podcast?

    Episode #155: Belbin Team Roles

    If you're talking to coachees about their role, their career or their work colleagues, you may find that they have quite narrow ways of viewing what works and what doesn't work in their team.    They may view the way they go about things as the right way and can't understand why other team members don't just behave in the way that they do. They may express concern, or frustration, at their team members' varying attitudes towards the work that needs to be done.    In this episode we explore why it's important to have some diversity of thought and behaviour within an effective team. Tom shares his knowledge of Belbin Team Roles, a concept and a tool that helps individuals and teams better understand how they might work more effectively together.    The conversation highlights the need for complementary skillsets and different ways of individual team-members operating in order to develop a team that is both cohesive and performing well.    Resources: Find out more about Belbin here: https://www.belbin.com/about/belbin-team-roles      Enjoy the podcast?
