#006 Who's Coachable? Can you use your coaching skills with anyone?

In this episode, I explain who you can coach and who you can use your coaching skills with as a leader, why some people are not coachable, and the top 6 groups of people you can use your coaching skills with, including your team and your boss. As Coach-Leaders, it's important to be clear about who you can coach and why you would coach them — what's the upside for you and for them? And do you need their permission to coach them? I explain the difference between you coaching someone you work with and you using your coaching skills with anyone. Coaching skills are fundamentally great conversation skills and people are attracted to leaders who can hold safe, non-judgmental and confidential thinking spaces for them to get their heads clear and be confident about what they need to do. There are smart strategic reasons to do this and it comes with a responsibility to act with integrity.Topics in this video====00:00 Introduction00:30 The coaching agreement and permission to coach01:34 You need a formal agreement with your executive coach02:36 You need explicit permission from your direct reports to coach them03:25 Leaders Who Coach™ can use their coaching skills with anyone04:47 You do not need permission to use your coaching skills06:04 Not everyone in your team wants to be coached07:00 When your direct report does not want to be coached by you09:48 Some people are not coachable11:38 Why I built Leaders Who Coach™14:22 Using coaching skills with your peers can increase your influence15:58 Your boss will love the confidential thinking space you create for them16:43 Transform your prospect and client conversations17:44 Grow your supplier’s capability with your coaching skills18:32 Friends and family love coaching conversations too Mentioned in this episode====⁠Building Trust in Every Conversation: The Who Energy Model™ for Coach-Leaders⁠ 🙋🏻‍♀️ Like this?
