EP 67 : Are you here AND here

In this episode, we explore a very particular and slightly strange coaching competence: Coaching Presence. How can ‘presence’ be a competence? Well, it can be learned and it can be designed.

In this episode, I share a few options how, by looking at coaching presence from two angles:

(1) Presence of the Coachee/Client

As a coach, we know we can only be effective if our coachee is really with us in the moment and brings their full best self. We explore in the episode a few options how we can help coachees fully arrive with us.

(2) Presence of the Coach

Even more importantly, it is in our control and in our duty to make sure we are where are are supposed to be: with the client, mentally and physically (as much as this is possible online). We explore how the International Coaching Federation describes this as a skill and what are a few ways how we can achieve it!

Enjoy!
