And me on Time to Think: deep listening as an act of co-creation

In these challenging times with change, uncertainty, complexity and even danger all around us, and multiple sources of information and misinformation coming at pace and scale, how do we help those we work with to make sense of it all?  What is the purpose of coaching now?

For almost 40 years the Thinking Environment has invited us to question many of the assumptions we hold around coaching roles, theories and practices. And we have found that when the singular purpose of coaching is to help people to think for themselves – in or out of sessions – individually or in groups - that really changes how we show up as coaches. When we agree to only speak if invited, even when clients become quiet. When we get truly comfortable with not knowing where their thinking might go. When we let go of our need to coach and instead focus on creating the best possible environment for them to connect with all aspects of themselves, their inner and outer worlds, and the systems in which they are immersed and entangled.

Then, a wellspring of creativity emerges, and magical things happen. And that starts with deep, generative listening.
