Coaching for Workplace Resilience

A Research Paper By Anja Haman
Performance Coach, CANADA

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

A Coaching Power Tool By Anja Haman
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

A Coaching Model By Anja Haman
Performance Coach, CANADA

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.
