What To Do When Work Isn’t Working: Career Transitions & Finding Support

2023/02/22

A Research Paper By Lucy Todd
Career Transition, UNITED STATES

There is a ton of research on career expectations, job satisfaction, and employment. To put it mildly, there are almost as many different attitudes toward work as there are jobs in the world. Only the most recent studies that are pertinent to a US audience were used in this “Career Transitions” article. But each of us is a distinct person with our own experiences, priorities, and values. Hence, even those who find their own region or demographics represented in the surveys may not find the information described in this article to be relevant. Yet, this article has demonstrated that, whether we want them to be or not, many of us see our jobs as more than just a source of income.

Inner Voice

2023/02/17

A Research Paper By Akriti Adhikari
Women Confidence Coach, UNITED KINGDOM

In this research paper, I’ll focus on the barriers to hearing one’s inner voice and how to develop a tool to aid in this process. Correspondingly, we can use headphones to block out outside noise while listening to our song. Let us first define what we mean when we speak of the inner voice. The inner voice, on the other hand, could be an instinct, intuition, or a call that prompts us to make a decision or do something. It could be a simple concept. Many of us dismiss our intuition because we believe it is a random thought.

Appreciative Inquiry

2023/02/14

A Research Paper By Lori Penha
Life Coach, UNITED STATES

During my studies at the International Coaching Academy, I first learned the term “appreciative inquiry.” I chose to do more research on Appreciative Inquiry (AI) because the founder of the movement, David Cooperrider, and fellow practitioners were more focused on what gives an organization its positive energy, and I at first thought when trainers and fellow coaches said “AI,” they were referring to “artificial intelligence.” This optimistic approach to long-term change resonated with me, and I intend to incorporate it into my coaching style.

Power of Visualisation

2023/02/11

A Research Paper By Tuba Mutlu
Personal Development Coach, UNITED KINGDOM

Success comes from having a clear goal. Your goal could be anything, such as achieving a specific weight loss goal, finding a new job, relocating, or beginning a new relationship. Having a goal, no matter how big or small gives you a purpose and a sense of direction. To achieve your goal, you must be committed and work hard. We all set out on our journeys with good intentions, but unfortunately, many of us get stuck at the goal stage. Consequently, we become demotivated and lose sight of why we set out to achieve a goal in the first place. So, how do we get out of our current situation and get unstuck? The “Power of Visualization” is the solution.

How Our Thoughts Create Our Reality

2023/02/03

A Research Paper By Carrie Cullen
Leadership Coach, UNITED STATES

The idea that “How Our Thoughts Create Our Reality” appears to be the most convincing response in my years of study and research. Also, realizing that we have complete control over our thoughts is incredibly liberating! Before starting my coaching journey, I had no idea that we can choose, which thoughts we accept, or reject and whether they serve us or not. It turns out that my mind was wildly out of control! I’ve done a lot of research, and I now understand that we have control over our thoughts. Like at a buffet, we can choose, which ideas to “put on our plate” and which ones aren’t worth the calories! This message is very reassuring and empowering.

How Coaching Leadership Style Could Support Leaders to Become More Effective

2023/02/02

A Research Paper By Kalliopi Koufopoulou
Life Coach, UNITED KINGDOM

According to Berg & Karlsen (2016), a coaching leadership style is one that “supports and challenges colleagues with the aim of helping them achieve individual development goals.” What do you suggest in place of the “I say, you do” approach when using this leadership style? 2018’s Eden Project Leaders develop their communication skills by sharing, interacting, and paying attention to the team. Employees are given the chance to capitalize on their strengths, develop their skills, and receive credit for their accomplishments. By acting as both guides and observers, leaders assist their teams in understanding the objectives behind what they are doing. They feel at ease handing off responsibility and letting people handle the work on their own.

Building Resilience Through Coaching

2023/01/31

A Research Paper By Michele Steele-Jordan,
Life Coach, UNITED STATES

This research paper on “Building Resilience Through Coaching” aims to examine the resilience phenomenon. Describe resilience. What are the determinants of resilience in individuals, and how can coaching support client resilience development? A fascinating human quality that can be acquired and enhanced over time is resilience. The research on resilience’s advantages in achieving success and overcoming obstacles makes people want to increase their capacity for resilience even more. The right platform to encourage people to grow is coaching. Understanding the traits and elements that contribute to resilience will enable coaches to support their clients in maximizing the traits they already exhibit and developing others to contribute to the development of their maximum resilience capacity. Being resilient is a crucial part of success.

Perspectives on the Unconscious in Transformational Coaching

2023/01/27

A Research Paper By Synnøve Thue
Transformational Coach, NORWAY

The classical distinction between the “unconscious,” “conscious,” and “superconscious” is a result of Sigmund Freud’s (1856-1939) psychoanalytic theories. According to Freud, the subconscious mind contains thoughts, memories, and desires that are hidden from conscious awareness. Our daily conscious mind experiences include being aware of both our internal and external environments. The term “superconscious” refers to a level of consciousness that exists above the conscious and unconscious minds and is thought to contain spiritual or metaphysical knowledge. Freud’s theory of the mind, on the other hand, was a holistic model that served as the theoretical foundation for a well-established coaching framework.

The System of the Mother

2023/01/23

A Research Paper By Julia Viladomiu
Motherhood Coach, NEW ZEALAND

The System of the Mother research paper follows the result of my 15 years of experience working in the educational field, my intense curiosity, my research, and my experiences as a mother. After all those years, I’ve always been drawn to the student I had in front of me while I was a teacher in a classroom. However, over the years, it has been the system (family, environment) that the child was raised in that has most piqued my interest, not the child himself or herself, and alone. I was fascinated by how those factors had the greatest impact on the student’s life. While working as a primary school teacher, I conducted interviews with parents to gather information from their children as well as for myself in order to develop hypotheses about their behaviors, learning curves, and empathetic abilities.

What Motivates People to Implement Behaviour Change and How Can This Knowledge Be Utilized in Coaching?

2023/01/18

A Research Paper By Julia Paulsson Jandl
Relationship Coach, AUSTRIA

Numerous elements, such as attitudes and beliefs, social norms, and clients’ perceptions of the resources at their disposal and the obstacles they must overcome, have an impact on behavior change. In order for interventions to be most effective, they must be tailored to specific clients and their contexts, since different clients may be affected by these factors in very different ways. Understanding theories and models of change can be a helpful step for coaches to take in order to determine the stage at which their clients are in terms of the desired change and to tailor interventions and emphasize relevant core competencies in accordance.
