What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?

2022/06/10

A Research Paper By Maria Stefansdottir
Executive Coach, ICELAND

What do you want to be when you grow up? As a kid, who hasn’t been asked this question a million times? It may appear simple and obvious that everyone should know what they are passionate about and skilled at, but this response is not the case. It’s actually quite complicated. Whatever people are looking for, they will find it within themselves. They must, however, be willing to embark on the adventure to discover it. The coach can assist the client in discovering who they really are, which is frequently quite different from who they have become. In between sessions, if the client is still looking for their calling, the coach can suggest exercises that he or she has successfully completed for himself.

Commitment & Self-Love as Accelerators for Coaching

2022/06/09

A Research Paper By Ziad Hamdan
Life Coach, SPAIN

When I decide to become a coach, I am in complete control of everything that happens to me. What happens next is a result of this decision; there is nothing on the outside that I will not cause to happen. In other words, selecting me as a coach implies that you have also selected me as a customer. We’ve drawn each other in. The coaching connection we’re building won’t be complete unless we both commit to it and show ourselves the self-love we need to let go of whatever has been holding us back in the past and allow ourselves to grow. Commitment & self-love will enable me to let go of my ego and provide the finest service possible to you.

The Significance of Learning Style in Coaching Effectiveness

2022/06/07

A Research Paper By Olayide Odediran
Transformation Coach, NIGERIA

Clients want to make sure that coaching is as successful as possible, as it is becoming a more important aspect of performance enhancement. Many people try to preserve this interest by hiring coaches who meet particular criteria. Companies, for example, are more willing to hire a coach who has earned the ICF accreditation. They believe that the rigor of ICF training and its ongoing professional standards will secure the best possible results. However, it is important to note that other aspects, in addition to coaching structure, ethics, and competencies, play a role in the effectiveness of the coaching relationship. One of these is the coach’s and client’s learning styles.

Visual Tools in the Coaching Practice

2022/06/06

A Research Paper By Annalisa Bracciante
Transformational Coach, ITALY

In this research paper, I want to demonstrate the value of visual tools, such as photographs, vision cards, vision boards, and other similar tools, to coach and the coachee. The range of benefits it creates in terms of engagement, insight, streamlining, and speeding up the coaching process has been confirmed through a survey of the resources available to me. Creative tools can help you get the flow and relaxation you need for new ideas. Furthermore, the use of physical instruments facilitates the transition from subject to object, enabling the individual to gain deeper inner clarity and insight. Another conclusion that should not be overlooked is that using visual tools reduces the amount of cognitive effort required.

Coaching for Workplace Resilience

2022/06/03

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.

Methods for Unlocking Limiting Beliefs in Coaching

2022/06/02

A Research Paper By Tracy Sharp
Design Thinking Coach, ITALY

As I consider research paper topics, I want to take the opportunity to gain insight into what I’ve observed in myself and many of my fellow coaches and clients. Limiting Beliefs affect everyone and affect our thinking, behavior, actions, and most importantly, our actions. Without having a psychology degree, Unlocking Limiting Beliefs, I found that challenging the use of language and providing the choice to think about the problem from a different perspective is critical to enable clients to effectively reframe their ideas.

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.

Muoversi Tra Cielo E Terra Liberazione E Manifestazione Nel Coaching

2022/05/27

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.
