Knowing Where You Are + Doing What Works + BIG Announcement – CLS055

Something completely different today…

I’m going to talk a bit personal, a bit business, and share a big announcement later in the show—so stay tuned for it.

Recently, I’ve been doing a LOT of personal-dev training and development. (Way more than usual, in fact.) And as part of that effort, it hit me that one of the things I preach—know where you are at any given time wasn’t being followed.

Things had been so frantic with client business growth, that other areas of the business weren’t getting the right levels of attention. And I was completely out of step with ‘knowing where I was’. (Not a good place to be in life or business.)

I’ll share a bit of that discovery today’s episode and along with it, and a very practicable 5-Point Framework To Always Know WHERE You Are—And What To Do About It

Fixing Business Coaching Sessions Gone Wrong – CLS053

By Corbin Links

I love coaching and being coached—don’t you?

But let’s face it: not all coaching sessions are blissful trips to happy land, if you know what I mean. Like anything else in business, coaching sessions can get off track, or go terribly wrong. And whether you’re on the client or coach side of the table, a bad session can wreck things for both sides.

A bad coaching session can be anything from tempers flaring, to boredom and lack of interest, to frustration and feeling results were missed, and all points in between. Best case, you both escape with your professional relationship intact and try again another day.

But worse, and far more likely, a bad—and certainly a super bad—session may never be recovered. These can and do happen even to the most experienced coaches. After all, this is a people business.

As coaches, it’s 100% OUR responsibility to keep coaching sessions from flying off the tracks. And that’s exactly the topic of today.

I’ll share with you some of the top and most frequent things that can and will go wrong, and what to do about it. OR…prevent things from happening in the first place. Lots to cover today, so let’s dive right in!

Renée, this is a great question and I think one we all face at some point in our careers. For me, it’s been dozens in years past (…but that’s a different story…). Maybe you’re just exploring new career options. You’ve heard about this “coaching thing” and thought “I could do that!”

Ore maybe you’re convinced you have a lot to offer as a coach, but not sure if the money is there, or if your particular brand or type of coaching will fly?
