We’ve learned so much in our lifetimes, from our parents, our teachers, our peers, our work, our managers, our coach training. But when it comes to coaching, that prior learning is not always useful. We need to unlearn some mindsets and skillsets to make way for new ones that enable our thinkers to think in new ways.
Speaker: Clare Norman
Clare has made no secret of her mission to professionalise the coaching industry. She contends that both mentor coaching and supervision should be mandated by professional coaching bodies as part of coaches’ continuing professional development. And she’ll be talking today about how we can use mentor coaching to discover the mindset shifts that underpin the skillset shifts we need to make to be an extraordinary coach. With over 20 years of coaching experience, Clare is highly sought after by other expert coaches, as well as successful coach training companies as a Master Mentor Coach. She looks to continually sharpen individuals’ coaching edge and upskill mentor coaches so they can deliver high-quality feedback to their coaches-in-development. Her laser focus on mindset shifts and her knack for spotting marginal gains has made her a go-to person for coaches looking for mentorship and practical, meaningful ways to improve their practice. With an international following from both her coaching peers and senior leadership, Clare is making a difference to the world of work via the professional application of coaching. Her mission across all her work is to encourage leaders to put people and the planet before profits. In 2015, Clare started her own business, Clare Norman Coaching Associates. Drawing on 25 years of learning and development experience gleaned from leading L&D strategy within NatWest and Accenture, she specialises in transition and leadership coaching, alongside mentor coaching and coaching supervision.
In this session, we’ll cover:
• Scripts our parents taught us…
• Beliefs we learned from school…
• Habits we learned at work…
• Practices we learned from our coaching training…
…that we need to unlearn to be a masterful coach.
This session will leave you wondering what else you need to unlearn to be a more masterful coach!
Added value for participants:
· Articulate a number of scripts that are currently preventing you from being the best coach you can be
· Describe more useful scripts that will enable you to become an extraordinary coach
· Make changes to your own coaching that embrace new mindsets and skillsets
For further information in advance, you can check the following:
Clare’s first book, Mentor Coaching: A Practical Guide, is a work of passion and according to Fran Fisher MCC, ’makes a significant contribution to the conscious evolution of the coaching profession, [and] offers a new paradigm for coach mentoring and the continuous personal and professional development of the coach.’
Her second book, The Transformational Coach, enables you to shed the ineffective scripts, trappings and beliefs that a lifetime of personal interactions, professional training and even your parents have taught you, such that you can reset your thinking to a beginner’s mentality and so begin a fulfilling and exciting journey to coaching mastery.
