S02 Ep31 GOOD Coaching Model

Use the GOOD coaching and communication model as you develop your leaders, help family members, and work through your own challenges. ----------------------------------------------- Welcome to Ever Better Today: the daily podcast for creating your optimal business, career, or overall life in ten minutes or less. I'm Lisa Conners Vogt, Executive and Leadership Coach and founder of Ever Better Coaching and Consulting. Let's jump in! ----------------------------------------------- G stands for goals What is it that you are trying to accomplish or want to achieve? Knowing this helps you to focus and gives you clear direction. O stands for options As an executive coach, I will literally try to ask you all options that you can think of. As your coach, I might have my own ideas. However, your ideas will always take priority over mine. O stands for obstacles What might create stumbling blocks that slow down your progress or inhibit your ability to achieve your goals? D stands for "do" or what are you going to do Now that we've discussed options and obstacles, it's time to ask for your commitments. "What are you going to do?"; "What are the steps that you're going to take?"; "By what timeframe?" And "do you need help from someone else in order to do those things?" ----------------------------------------------- There will be follow-up sessions as you think these things through. For you as a leader, and for me, as a coach, our role is to act as a thought partner and as a catalyst for you to come up with new ideas that will help you to solve a challenge or problem, or achieve a goal. ----------------------------------------------- To learn more about working with Ever Better, send me an email here or book a complimentary call with me here.
