by others……

Where does coaching come from?
• Origins in sports psychology• ‘The inner game of tennis’ Gallwey• Coaching includes a wide variety of disciplines
from life coaching to executive coaching
QTL Quality Through Leadership
What is (non-directive) Coaching?• “Coaching is the art of facilitating the
performance, learning and the development of another” Myles Downey
• The process of coaching is non-directive allowing the client to explore their own issues in a positive, supportive relationship with their coach
• A means of helping people to uncover and bring out the best in themselves and the members of their team.
QTL Quality Through Leadership
What is Coaching? • Coaching is a process that unlocks a person’s
potential in order to maximize performance• It is helping them to learn rather than instructing
them• Coaching focuses on future possibilities not past
mistakes• It is a generic process that can be used at a
variety of levels in an organisation (colleagues, pupils, parents)
QTL Quality Through Leadership
How does coaching work?
• The process is non-directive• The coachee chooses the agenda• The coaching session is goal centred and leads to
action• Coaching focuses on the present and future• Coaching helps people take responsibility for action
and is an investment in their growth
The Inner Game
“The opponent within one’s own
head is more daunting than the
one on the other side of the
net.”
Timothy Gallwey
The diminishing of full potential
Full minus interferences equals diminished
potential performance

What is the relationship between:
• Coaching• Mentoring • Counselling?
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Coaching is not a panacea!
• Sometimes it is better just to tell
Only coach if you think the person has the ability to solve the issue
COACHING
“Coaching is not merely a technique to be wheeled out and rigidly applied in prescribed circumstances. It is a way of managing, a way of treating people, a way of thinking, a way of doing.
John Whitmore: Coaching for performance

Key Coaching Skills
• Listening – activity
• Reflecting
• Clarifying/summarising
• Questioning
QTL Quality Through Leadership
How to listen effectively
• Being there• Following the coachee’s agenda• Trusting silence• Hear what the coachee is saying without
projecting your experience on to the story
• Be patient, attentive and objective• Point out the elephants in the room• Turn off the conversation in your head
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Impatient Listening• I see your problem and I know the
solution• I’m now composing my reply• I came with something on my mind• I really want to get on with my
work• What you said reminded me of
something I need to do• Not that issue again!
QTL Quality Through Leadership
AIRTIME
• In a coaching session a coachee should get about 80 % of the airtime
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Reflecting
• Holding a mirror up to raise the coachee’s awareness of the reality they have just described
• Using the coachee’s words is very powerful where possible
• Checking that what you have reflected back is accurate
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Clarifying/Summarising
• Regularly focusing the conversation and reminding coach and coachee where they are.
• ‘So let me just check I’ve understood what you’ve told me...’
• ‘So far you have mentioned 3 goals....’

I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious’
Albert Einstein
This is true of the best coaches too.
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Questioning• Keep them simple• Link questions to the coachee’s flow• What, why, when, how, where and who• What if questions (ideal world with no
constraints) – outside the box!• Sensory questions (reveal feelings/ raise
awareness)• Columbo questions e.g. How does that
work?• What else? Keep asking if you think
there’s more gold in the mine!
QTL Quality Through Leadership
Silence is golden
• The best and most helpful questions invoke the biggest silences
QTL Quality Through Leadership
One of the biggest challenges for new coaches is to learn to ask questions rather than give
advice
