Addressing a Disengaged Workforce

2022/06/01

A Research Paper By Rob Hands
Leadership Coach, SINGAPORE

Only 15% of full-time employees in 155 countries feel engaged at work, according to the Gallup ‘State of Global Workplace’ report. As a result, around 85% of employees worldwide are disengaged or unhappy at work. There are various variables that contribute to this lack of workplace participation (Disengaged Workforce), and the Covid-19 epidemic of 2020/21 has functioned as a major catalyst in hastening this trend. As a result, certain legacy techniques for building and maintaining employee engagement within a company must be completely rethought.

Your Inner Critic: A Cautionary Tale

2022/05/30

A Research Paper By Parbatie Khan
Transformational Coach, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO

“An inner critic is a voice that judges, criticizes, or demeans a person whether the self-criticism is objectively justified or not.” (2015, Good Therapy) “The ideas that are making them (clients) unpleasant and exposing them to situations they avoid because of unfounded concerns,” says Albert Ellis (2002). This inner voice manifests as thoughts; an internal dialogue we have with ourselves, a “nagging” voice that weakens our capacity to exhibit strength, and courage, seek new goals, make new relationships, and become the person we wish to be. If left unchecked, a strong inner critic can do long-term damage to an individual’s mental stability and self-esteem.

A Research Paper By Carlo Carcano
Transformational Coach, ITALY

Nel contesto della crescita personale, in processi di gruppo e in relazioni di supporto come il coaching Liberazione E Manifestazione queste due direzioni si esprimono in modi evidenti e ben definiti. Manifestazione è la strada che ci muove da ideali, ispirazioni, idee, intuizioni e sentire verso azioni e realizzazioni tangibili. Liberazione è la strada che muove da costrizioni, ripetizioni, abitudini e concezioni limitanti verso più ampi livelli di azione, ispirazione, verso un potenziale senza fine.

How to Evaluate Performance in an International Team Using Coaching Methods?

2022/05/26

A Research Paper By Jana Glezova
Expatriate Coach, CZECH REPUBLIC

While doing this research, I wanted to learn how to use coaching methods to analyze the performance of international teams. Employees in international teams have expressed an interest in coaching, although most have not yet received the opportunity. Based on my research, I would advocate teaching the “rounding approach” to organizations with an international workforce of more than three countries. I would recommend in-person or online coaching sessions for individuals or less varied teams. Observational coaching, on the other hand, can be a useful supplement to assessing an employee’s conduct in the workplace.

Authenticity in Workplaces, a Transformational Journey

2022/05/25

A Research Paper By Annabella Da Encarnacao
Leadership Coach, GERMANY

My coaching approach focuses on being your true self in the workplace as an individual. Gabriela Krupa is an experienced organization coach who focuses on “purposeful self-organization for business and authentic workplaces,” according to her website. Gabriela has worked for the Energized self-management consulting firm and now helps me with my own work on the road to self-management. Although an increasing number of people aspire to live a healthy lifestyle at work, few businesses are willing to take the risk. The main focus of this talk is on a company level: what does authenticity mean to them, what is the process of introducing authenticity to the workplace, and, of course, what are the challenges and rewards of doing so.

A Research Paper By Debbie Wissel
Career Coach, UNITED STATES

The art of coaching is based on a liberal arts perspective, which incorporates and integrates many diverse disciplines such as psychology, human behavior, anthropology, sociology, biology, neuroscience, and others. For me, being a coach requires a commitment to being a lifelong learner and listener in order to bring out the best in others. In my quest to become a better coach, I’ve read and continue to study numerous coaching books that have shaped my approach and expanded my understanding of the components of good coaching. This article outlines three fundamental works on coaching topics that recur in my own coaching: Habits and Behaviors, Life Design, and Fulfillment.

An Exploration of Self-Acceptance: The Application to Coaching

2022/05/19

A Research Paper By Jennifer Walker
Life Coach, UNITED STATES

Theology, psychology, sociology, and philosophy have all explored self-acceptance. Since Buddha’s teachings over two thousand years ago, the importance of self-acceptance has been highly debated. Modern psychological theories, therapeutic approaches, and contemporary literature, all contribute to the study of acceptance. Coaching, with its philosophy of assisting clients’ self-awareness and progress, is well-positioned to contribute to these ideas by promoting the value and practice of self-acceptance as it relates to the journey of personal enlightenment and transformation.

How Positive Psychology Can Impact Leadership on Creating a High Contribution Environment

2022/05/18

A Research Paper By Francesca Castagnetti
Life Coach, ITALY

Ms. Maaike Rijken, an extraordinary woman and a seasoned expert in the field of psychology, was the subject of my interview. Maaike created and developed the international Positive Psychology program at the University of Applied Science in Amsterdam, where she has been delivering specific training programs for several years. Positive psychology is concerned with people’s well-being; happiness entails both fulfillment and the ability to be resilient. It’s about feeling energized, fulfilled, and uplifted, all of which are elements of happiness. Being happy can also be achieved by engaging in activities that are normally associated with happiness, such as attending a party, attending a football match for those who are interested, or engaging in any other activity that produces an immediate feeling of enjoyment.

Coaching as Support for Informal Caregivers

A Research Paper By Susan Haffner
Life Coach, UNITED STATES

There are many paid and unpaid caregivers around the world; the support provided to those they care for varies, but it is extremely vital for their health and welfare. We couldn’t live without these carers, but it’s vital to remember that they need attention as well. This issue is where I believe coaching may be able to help bridge the gap. This pressing need, combined with my prior expertise, has led me to specialize in caregiver coaching. I’ve always been curious about how coaching may aid in client progress. I was curious to see how coaching could complement the tools and assistance that I provide to clients in my social work profession.
