Manage episode 339425346 series 3005228
This week's episode was requested by a member of our Coaching Crowd group and also links to the core coaching competency around understanding self and others. We are delighted to talk about the importance of reflection as a coach and how it can be done effectively.
We discuss:
- what reflective practice actually is
- how your reflective practice might change from training to when you are actively coaching
- the questions you can ask yourself to be reflective
- the different types of reflection and which lens you use to look through
- how to form a reflective practice and routing
- how reflection can be seen as a chore but it can also be deeply enriching
- how reflection is not just about noticing gaps but also about celebration
- where and what spaces you can use to reflect within
- how to develop a reflective practice that suspends self judgement
Reflection is the unsung hero of coaching and plays a part in being a great coach. It is important to remember that it is a skill that needs to be developed so have fun with this, be patient and stay curious.
