8. Coaching is about:
co-creating an impossible future
standing in people’s greatness
creating a winning game plan
asking powerful questions
discovery, challenge and change
Coaching is ONLY for those who are willing to live the
answers to the questions they’re asking
14. life is a mystery to be embraced rather than a problem to
be solved
Coaching questions focus on the positive, not the
negative
clients focus on their highest vision for themselves and
live in that space
16. We choose our lives
Our actions (past and present) contribute to our
current reality and affects what we believe is
possible for us
The key is to focus on past successes as a way of
strengthening our faith and action toward a positive
future
We co-create our reality
18. A positive attitude leads to positive change
A focus on possibility, not problems
Nurturing your reflected best self (RBS)
It’s about helping clients discover that while their norm
may be complaining, criticizing, and whining, they’re
much happier and more effective when they live and act
from a positive and joyful place
20. “Questioning and change can happen in the same
moment.” –Sara Orem
The questions we ask lead us down a certain path
The more positive the questions, the more powerful and
successful the journey our clients can embark upon
We ask questions that help clients reframe their past
from their perspective in the present
Positive questions prompt new thinking
22. Coaches give clients the freedom and permission to see
themselves in a new way
In appreciative coaching, we help clients reframe,
reimagine, and refocus their life stories so they can
move into more hopeful and joyful action toward a
desired change
24. What we visualize and believe we can do, we take action
towards
If we can’t see it (and believe it), we can’t do it
A big vision starts with small steps
We have confidence moving into the future when we
carry with us what is best about the past
26. You’re ready and willing to change your story
You are willing to release the need to suffer
You’re ready to redo your life choice by choice
You want to create a life you love to look at AND you’re
willing to make the paradigm shifts necessary to do so
You’re ready to own the parts in you that aren’t yet ready
to live an empowered life
You’re ready to feel the fear and live your dreams
anyway
