A Coaching Model By Anu Bhanot
Leadership Coach, INDIA

The GROW coaching model is a well-known paradigm that can be included in the shift from “Me” to “We” to help leaders, team members in individual contributor roles, and employees succeed collectively. The letters in the abbreviation stand for Goal, Reality, Choice, and Will. The model is a powerful and adaptable framework that can be used dynamically to adapt to various coaching situations. The organized approach of this model makes it easier to guide leaders, team members in individual contributor positions, and employees on goal-setting, problem-solving, ambiguity-handling, and personal growth journeys, resulting in positive outcomes and long-term transformation. This idea is why I choose to make use of it.

Digital technologies, especially artificial intelligence (AI), have recently had an impact on coaching, just as they have on other aspects of our life. Discussions about the advantages and disadvantages of technology-driven coaching have become more heated since ChatGPT’s launch. It seems like now is a good time for professional coaching organizations and individual coaches to stop and think about what role we want artificial intelligence to play in the coaching process. There is no doubt that the pace of digital transformation and the impact of artificial intelligence on coaching will accelerate in the coming years, but how worried should human coaches be about this?

Applying some of the following recommendations may be helpful for healthcare leaders who want to improve employee performance, retention, and well-being.

The DIVE coaching model provides a four-step approach used in career counseling sessions to help clients develop creativity, brainstorm new career strategies, and have the courage to try them. Diving is an activity that can seem daring and different from our everyday lives; leaving a safe and familiar environment and entering a somewhat unknown but beautiful world that offers us new experiences, feelings, actions and knowledge. We use the metaphor of diving in everyday parlance: delving into a topic means expanding our understanding and taking action beyond the current situation. Diving results in a recognizable accomplishment: the encounter and comprehension of something new and exciting.

The C-suite and executives must reassess and embed the importance of growth + development and its impact on employee engagement for today’s fleeting workforce. Capital expenditures should follow these guidelines. It has been a long time since any investments have been made in the expansion and improvement of human capital. Plans for mentorships, off-site training, online courses, and better or more advanced training are made every year with the best of intentions. However, these are the first programs to be eliminated, delayed, or postponed due to a lack of money. Additionally, deviating from the organization’s obligations and priorities delays these critical growth endeavors. The basis of leaders’ and organizations’ strategies to change from a mindset where “you (the employee) are the driver and owner of your development”

Mountain vs. Anthill

A Coaching Power Tool By Joanna Poplawska
Leadership Coach, UNITED KINGDOM

The mountain vs. Anthill power tool in coaching, in my opinion, a coach’s job is to help their client understand that their thoughts are only thoughts and not reality, to think about alternative explanations, to examine the available evidence, and to think about what they can do to handle the situation until they know the actual outcome. People can be pushed in the wrong direction by catastrophizing ideas, which can distract from new learning and instead waste it. The client acquires a greater understanding that a mountain might not actually be a mountain by recognizing that they lack the evidence necessary to accurately forecast other people’s behaviors, thoughts, and feelings as well as the fact that they are unable to read minds. Their unwarranted fear, worry, and negative behaviors can be released by de-catastrophizing discourse.

The SOAR coaching model is based on the idea that women have career goals and aspirations, and that in order to achieve these aspirations, they need help overcoming some structural barriers as well as personal habits and behaviors. No matter their position in life or at work, being aware of the importance of the issues they are bringing to the table and how they fit with their internal purpose will help them stay internally oriented and demonstrate the qualities that set them apart. The SOAR Coaching Model helps women use the “purpose to impact” idea to link the challenges they face at work to their sense of purpose. This idea enables them to live a purposeful life and gives them the motivation to create an action plan to achieve their career goals.

The Lack-Of-Confidence vs. Courage Coaching power tool that builds on the premise of reshaping coaching, giving clients a new understanding of their own situation. The definition of confidence is “a feeling of self-assurance arising from one’s appreciation of one’s own abilities or qualities.” Lack of confidence and the fear of asking for what you want can impede a woman’s career. In order to advocate for themselves at work and move closer to reaching their professional goals, women who reframe their viewpoints from ones of fear and insecurity to one of courage and confidence may find it easier to deal with gender stereotypes in the workplace. With the aid of this powerful coaching tool, a coach may better their client’s self-awareness and give them clarity about their values and future stages in their professions.
