Growth Mindset Coach, CANADA

There is a saying in the personal development world that goes, “If you’re not growing, you’re dying.” As human beings, we are designed to grow physically as well as intellectually, spiritually, and emotionally. Many of us lose sight of the various aspects of our own personal growth as we get older, leaving us feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and unsure of our purpose and life’s path. The concept of the Growth Mindset was introduced in 2007 by Carol Dweck, a Stanford University psychologist who spent decades researching and observing how mindset affects children’s behaviors.

Families are assisted by the ETCAP (Explore, Tools, Clarify, Action Plans, and Implementation) Coaching Model in securing their financial future.

A Research Paper By Joseph Neizer

In order to encourage financial literacy and improve the financial well-being of Canadian families, this research document will define the basic ideas and principles of coaching. The article cites a 2018 Financial Survey of Canadians conducted by the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) to support its conclusions. For Canadians, having adequate finances contributes to a sense of mental and emotional security in daily life. Even while it is not the only factor in people’s anxiety and tension, money plays a big part in exacerbating these problems for both individuals and families. This idea is particularly evident when there is financial and economic uncertainty, as there is at the moment.

Efficiency vs. Effectiveness

A Coaching Power Tool By David Peterson
Optimization Coach, CANADA

Humans have a tremendous desire to change the world, which motivates us to take action to make our lives better. Our desire to succeed drives us to work hard in our personal and professional lives. This motivation also pushes us to do actions that add the most value and inspires us to enhance what we’ve already accomplished. Similar to the way of thinking, efficiency vs. effectiveness are antithetical. Both have the ability to transform a person or an organization, but while effectiveness takes a holistic approach to growth and development, efficiency is more concerned with reduction.

When organizations undergo optimization projects, it creates a fearful and stressful environment for both employees and employers. Most businesses embark on optimization projects that prioritize efficiency over effectiveness. Many of those projects have business cases in which the immediate success of cutting costs and increasing profitability reduces the number of FTE (Full Time Equivalent) employees. Employees impacted by these projects frequently believe that their employers have no heart in these situations and are only concerned with the dollars saved rather than the value they bring. Organizational executives believe their hands are tied and thus do little to change that perception. They want a good outcome, but the perspectives, strategies, and mindsets required to support this transition must be developed.

Resilience may be developed, and coaching can help people become more aware of their responses to adversity and develop the skills they need to cope with adversity at work. Individuals who develop a diverse range of tools over time are more robust in a variety of situations. Coaching can also help the person by ensuring that their environment is controlled in a way that allows them to be resilient: ensuring that they have a social support system, time to recharge, and a strong inner compass with clear purpose and values. Because context matters, the potential of teams and organizations to enhance individual resilience should be further explored.

Approval vs. Acceptance

Performance Coach, CANADA

Many great leaders showed self-acceptance by challenging established standards and believing in their right to do so. As expectations and powers move and the world changes, seeking external acceptance can lead to worry, anxiety, and guilt. Because new expectations and standards can be questioned and analyzed without constituting a personal threat, acceptance of oneself provides the door to curiosity, empathy, and progress. People can live truly and be their best selves when they move from seeking Approval vs. Acceptance. Coaches can help their clients transition from seeking external approval to self-acceptance, helping them become more aware of their existing beliefs and gradually change their habits of thinking, feeling, and explaining. Complementing this work with a strong social support network and a solid inner compass can help build a solid foundation.

The Journey to Resilience

Improving our lives is a lifelong process that involves expanding our inner world while reacting to the external environment. The ability to weather storms, adjust when we need to, and pace through life’s ebbs and flows is a part of the journey to resilience. Each obstacle or opportunity is a step along that route, and we get to choose how we respond, grow, and participate. Coaching begins at this point when we wish to accomplish something difficult. We must determine where we are going and stick to that path, using the right tools for the current issues before us, and taking the time to fuel them. We must cultivate mental resilience to stay on track despite diversions, changes, and uncertainty. Just like trekking, the more we travel, the more tools we learn to use, and the more confident we become in our abilities in every situation.
