A Practical Introduction to Coaching
summary
Crash course gives concrete, usable coaching moves: three levels of listening (inward, attention-out, body/environment), techniques to show you heard someone like mirroring and paraphrasing, and a repertoire of powerful “what” questions that spark insight rather than gather facts. Sessions follow a clear arc—clarify topic, listen at levels 2–3, ask one probing question, elicit an action or a new way of being, and schedule follow-up. Video has interactive exercises removed, so expect demonstrated practice in the live session rather than in the uploaded version.
