Management and Agile Coach, IRELAND
This Manager Challenges for High Performing Teams paper explores how a manager attempted to re-orient an already high-performing team towards a new process, by harnessing the existing mindset. Change management is already a challenging field, and motivating a team that has established visible and measurable improvement requires a very specific management approach.

Achieving any goal innately taps into either a person’s Passions vs. Talents. Talent, or skill, is measured and can be tested. They are something that can be nurtured and invested in with time and patience. Passions are less malleable than Talents and while Passions change over time, it requires environmental support as well as time to allow Passions to form and grow. Passions are a Key Bridge towards Talent gaps. If someone has the Passion for an area but lacks the key Talents, it can become a motivator and a focal point to help grow and embed the Talents.

As I was preparing to write this power tool, several ideas popped into my mind to write about, but this specific one “possible vs. impossible” topic resonated the most with me. It is a topic that I was and still is faced with a lot in my life. This power tool is about reframing perspective from a limiting belief of impossibility to one of possibility and empowerment.

The coaching model “Be the DJ of Your Life” is based on the principle of creating the music that you have always dreamed about on a DJ mixing table. Music and the DJ mixing table are being used as a metaphor for the life that we dream about and want to be living, the actions that have to be taken to get from the current state to the next desired state. Best of all, as a DJ, you have full control over the output you are creating.

The research in this paper highlights the positive benefits that accessing heart intelligence can have in our coaching quality but also how it can support clients to tap into a deeper dimension of their being that can transform their coaching experience and their life. Although there is some literature on the role the heart can play in our overall health, there is very little literature on the specific role it can play in the field of coaching.

Through the art of Overachieving vs. Allowing, appreciating what we have in this current moment, and accepting that every ebb and flow in our lives has something to teach us, we can dramatically shift our perspective and remain open to what life has to offer instead of needing to control everything.

Attuning within coaching is to turn inwards towards the essence of who we are, supporting a better alignment between our inner and outer world. It means tapping into and accessing different elements of our being that provide and complete valuable information about who we are. The coaching process supports clients in this journey by inviting our clients to explore these parts of themselves in a safe place. Attuning refers to both the journey of the client to tap into their essence and how the coach uses their skills to attune to the client’s energy, feelings, perspectives and respond intuitively to these aspects of their being.
A Research Paper By Jennifer Topinka
Leadership Coach, UNITED STATES
In my coaching evaluation (observed coaching), I received feedback that I missed opportunities to explore the client’s emotions despite asking “how are you feeling?”. In this research paper, I set out to study emotions so that I could be more fluent and articulate while addressing emotions, feelings, and thoughts – both as a client and a coach. This idea led me to an unexpected journey to a new theory on emotions, specifically the “constructed emotion” view. I’ve based my research paper on almost all of my learning from How Emotions are Made, by Lisa Feldman Barrett.
