Creating Your Encore Career 135: A Simple Coaching Process with Lori Glander and Rena Gainey
Have you ever had someone, at work or in your personal life, come up to you and ask if you have a minute? Do you start with giving them directions?
Most people have a default or go-to mode when someone brings a problem or an issue to them, almost like having a tool belt around your waist. And so, when someone brings a situation to you, what is the tool you’re most likely to pull out?
Having a coach can accelerate your progress in creating your encore career. While coaching and being coached is simple, it can take a lifetime to master. Helping people think through the problem is usually a better move – and that's essentially what coaching is about.
In today’s episode, I am delighted to once again have executive coaches, Lori Glander and Rena Gainey, as they share their insights from several years of coaching and developing leaders.
We'll dive deeper into these concepts:
- What coaching is and how it is different from giving direction or advice
- Coaching is accessible to anyone.
- A demonstration of the “Simple Coaching Process” with me as the coachee so you can see how it works. (I actually made progress on my goal during this coaching conversation.)
Now, for some action steps:
