152: Powerful Ways to Create an Inclusive Coaching Space

Our host, Dr Julie Scanlon, is joined by Ngozi Lyn Cole in this powerful, thought-provoking conversation discussing the importance of inclusion and diversity in coaching. Ngozi highlights the lack of representation and options for marginalized groups, emphasizing the need for coaches who can understand and relate to their clients' experiences: the value of truly seeing someone in a coaching relationship.

 

Julie and Ngozi both share poignant personal stories to emphasize the need for greater representation in the coaching world and discuss the power dynamics and inequities that exist in the coaching space. Ngozi shares useful tips, resources, and questions that coaches can use with clients, and the important role coaches have in promoting inclusion and creating positive change.

 

“Coaching, like many professions, is not representative of the wider society.”
