Master Certified Creative & ADD/ADHD Coach
Bonus: audio recording of a special coaching session by Barbara for one of her Soaring Coaches Circle classes
 

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession and this is the first time that she and Barbara have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I'm an artist, author and creative catalyst. Ioften start things and don't finish them - I know I have sabotaged my success in many ways due to difficulty focusing, too many ideas, feeling spacey etc! The topic I would like to be coached on is: how to set up systems that will work for me so I can follow through on my numerous ideas/projects floating around in my head. Being a super duper creative right brained person means the systems have to be colorful and easy for me to follow."

"The Barbara Luther call was phenomenal. She immediately heard beneath the client's stated agenda and gently unpeeled the layers of the onion to reveal the core of the matter and the client's wisdom. A beautiful example of coaching at its very finest!
Thank-you, Gail! I'm so glad to have discovered MMC and to have access to hearing coaches at the top of our profession."~Sally Ward, PCC, CPCC Ward Leadership

 "The call today was extremely helpful to me. For me it was an example of really being present to the client and getting over there with the client and allowing them to discover their brilliance. It was also really helpful for me as I am working in a business relationship with a coach who recognizes that she has some ADD traits."~D. Petersen, BCC - Coaching for Well Being

"I enjoyed listening to the call with Barbara Luther. I noticed how Barbara shared information and then very quickly returned power to the client, without needing to resort to being overly directive. It worked beautifully. She kept the integrity of the partnership, kept the client moving forward, and maximized the efficiency of the call. It was excellent session management. Her information about ADD seemed to be well-founded and truly useful to the client. She did all this with ease and good humor. A lovely experience. Thank you." ~Bobbie Burdett, BCC, PCC (applicant), Director of Training HealthWorld Online, www.authenticoach.com 

"Thank you to you Gail and to Barbara for choosing me for this teleseminar.  I really enjoyed the session and have a few wonderful take aways to use in my toolkit. I sure appreciate it!" ~Violette- the client on the call
 

Master Certified Youth/Student & ADD/ADHD
Special Bonus: additional 15 minutes of discussion and Q&A on student coaching and an article she wrote “The fundamentals of coaching students” 
 

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession. She has had a bit of coaching in the past but this is the first time that she and Jodi have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: As an executive with self diagnosed adhd, she has real difficulties with organizational management, especially with paper. She's great with the gift of gab, can get deals done but when it comes to working with the details she falls short and it causes her a lot of angst. Learning new computer programs is very hard for her. She also has a tendency to start things at the last minute which is very stressful but feels she needs that adrenaline to get it done. She would like a kind and loving way to encourage/teach herself to do things differently so as to create less anxiety and stress. Perhaps some strategies that would help.

Some of the particpants take-aways:

• “Thanks for a wonderful, inspiring call!”
• “I think this was my favorite MMC coaching session. I loved everything about it. I admire Jodi for her many years of experience, being a leader in the profession and more specifically creating a program for people (and especially youth) with ADHD. I could hear her passion for her nitch, and her desire to train others and share what she has learned for the good of others and ultimately the society as a whole.”
• “Jodi had a beautiful calm, supportive sense of presence. She normalized the clients feelings as it relates to ADHD, and shared some knowledge with the client which gave her a sense of ease”
• “Grateful for the opportunity to hear a master coach “dance in the moment”- wonderful use of reflecting back the client’s words, metaphors, acknowledgments and normalizing ADHD”
• “I was moved by the turnaround in the client’s confidence when Jodi reminded her of her many successes. It truly changed her belief system and what she could do.” 
• “To keep a check on my whole person when coaching another. Self-manage, stay present, relax my mind and body (pay attention to body posture when coaching), stay centered, focus on the client’s agenda, tap into intuition.” 
• “It was really inspiring to be reminded that silence is very powerful.”

Master Certified Ancient Wisdom Leadership Coach

Coaching Scenario: Margie brought one of her former clients to the call. They had not spoken for a couple of years.

Coaching Topic: This client is very successful in the business she has created and been running for years but wants to know how to “explode” into the next iteration of her life, herself and her work. It all feels very scary with all the changes it will require and she worries that the new work will not be accepted by society.

Some of the participant take-aways:

• This session was a lesson in courage and authenticity: I think both must be present in each and every coaching session: Today's call masterfully modeled this blend. 
• Perhaps more than many other calls, this session demonstrated the power of coach presence
• Coaching presence with the client is what will allow me to take risk in service of the client.
• Despite the client's repeated stories, Margie never wavered in her absolute belief in the client's greatness.  
• The reminder again, that it's not about performing for the client. It's about being present. The reminder to use the clients own words/phrasing when revisiting the agreement established in the beginning--as a way to move toward action. 
• Ability to confront client with what you know is not the case - challenging the client's responses. 
• How a skilled coach can truly help others create breakthroughs in 30 minutes!
• "The energy and excitement of making it tangible"
• The warm relaxed style of Margie even while she was using direct communication
• Good use of intuition and direct communication early on, then acknowledgment when the energy shifted. ​

Master Certified Life, Business & Mentor Coach
Special Bonus: An audio Lyn created and personalized to meet the specific needs and desires of the MMC particpants

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession.  And this was the first time that he in and Lyn had ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: One of the greatest benefits of these calls is that they are in real time, there is no do over or editing.  It makes it very exciting because you never know what's going to happen.  Kind of like real life!

The client on this call was specifically chosen among other submissions for the coaching issue he originally submitted.   But then on the call unbeknownst to any of us completely changed his topic.  Being the master she is, this of course made no difference to Lyn. And as it turned out, the issue he wanted assistance with is something that many clients deal with:
How to take care of himself and his needs without hurting, offending or letting others down.

Two participants had this to say on the call:

"Lyn I loved how in process you were in formulating your questions and truly dancing with the client, taking the time to get clear about the articulation of what was surfacing for you"

"The intuition & the self-acceptance that Lyn demonstrated in her own coaching, listening to her say  “no that's not it… oh here it is”- that just fascinated me. And that's really what I’m wanting in my own coaching -to be fully present, listening to my own instincts instead of thinking there is some right way to do it."

Chrissy is passionate about working with clients who dare to have big dreams and "who are driven by the compelling vision to make this world a better place." And this describes the former NFL player/client on this call.

One of the participants had this to say to Chrissy on the call:

"You did a beautiful job of pulling the client from his little "a" agenda- wanting to run out and do the next three things on his list and  know what they are. Boy a lot of coaches could have just jumped right in there and gotten right to work but you very deftly asked if it might be worthwhile to go back and visit his vision. Just such the right move and that was where the big "A" agenda emerged."

Coaching Topic: I am a doctor and business owner but have been struggling over the past year on my "why." This resistance has caused me to drift I think from my passion but I am not 100% sure on what my purpose really is and where I should focus my talents.

Some of the participant take-aways:

• "This coach demonstrated powerful presence with this client. You could hear how closely he was tracking her and how deeply he was listening."
• "Clients know what they need. When coaches stay present, in service of the client and asking powerful questions clients open to their deeper knowing." 
• "I loved listening to Phillip coach Ellie. I admire how he follows his intuition and his hunches and then asked clarifying questions to get more information on what’s really going on for the client. He listened carefully (active listening) to her, to what was said and not said. He picked up on her use of the word ‘permission” and followed it to and all that it revealed for her, without her even realizing she used that word."
• "Getting to topic quickly when there is a menu of topics, powerful questioning to have the client lead where the session is going, repeatedly clarifying and taking a new topic on if indicated by client as priority."
•  "Loved what Philip said about the ICF competencies--that the best coaches integrate the competencies into their lives. The competencies are reflected in how they live their lives."
• "To never assume that the client and myself hold the same meaning for a particular word. To listen for the client’s use of words and to check in regarding the client’s definition of words. Also, to continue to check in with the client regarding the coaching agreement."
• " I liked his comment on understanding learning styles to really be there with the clientas well as integrating the competencies into who you are personally."
• "Q and A was most valuable!"
• "Establish norms for coaching and their interaction together."
• "Keep it simple. Define language in their own words." 

Master Certified Executive & Professional Coach
Co-Author of Smart Match Alliances
Bonus: Judy's 5000 word article "Baby Boomers Escape Your Bubble"

 

Coaching Scenario: The client is not a coach and this was the first time she and Judy had ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I'm a Baby Boomer in life transition. I was married to a fairly successful man.  I raised children and  intermittently, had some great jobs, but my resume is spotty.  After 40 years, the marriage has dissolved, dividing my nest egg in half, the stock market fell, dividing it in half again.  Most of my friends are on on cruises, are winding down their lives, and cannot imagine going back to work. I've heard the job market is rough - and they are right - it's a jungle out there. Age discrimination is alive and well also. I believe I'm at a fork in the road (perhaps with several tines).  I'm treading water with a tad bit of panic.  I'm an excellent swimmer - if I can lay the panic aside and start some forward motion."

One of the participants during the Q&A said to Judy:

"I think your coaching today was probably the best example Ive heard of a Master Coach. Of all the sessions Ive listened to through the ICF and Gail Moore, it was just masterfully done. I thought it was a fabulous call!"~Kay Cross, M.Ed, ACC, Cross Coaching & Wellness, www.kaycross.com
 

Master Certified Business & Life Coach
Bonus: The opportunity to be coached by Kathy-a master coach-at a 50% discount. We can receive up to 2 months of coaching, 4 hours a month for $500 a month versus her regular rate of $1000.

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession, has never been coached before and this is the first time that she and Kathy have met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "Since my divorce and losing my job (2008-09) I have been trying to "make it" in my new career: entertainment marketing. The agency/network gigs I've gotten have been underpaying and abusive. The freelance work is sparse and pays even less. The truth of the matter is, I have no idea what to do with myself; I see the end result that I want, but I have no idea how to get there. Is it Im blind to opportunity because of my mindset or am I making bad choices? I'm super qualified, I want to figure out what I'm doing that's keeping me playing small."

The client had this to say about the session with Kathy:
"I didn't know what to expect, or what we would be able to accomplish in the time allotted. I am blown away by the realization that all this time I've been…  Helping me to recognize that without being judged and without judging myself, Kathy was insightful and supportive, and helped deliver a huge "aha" that I've struggled with for a long time.

I'm extremely grateful to you and Kathy, and just so you know, the first thing I did when I got off the call was to rinse my face with water-it was an emotional revelation! And immediately after that, I called the filmmaker and set a deadline for the next rough cut. Reflecting since this morning's call, I've found (surprise) a few other places where I've…and I realize how it has impacted other aspects of my life.”

Huge, huge breakthrough for me! Thank you again."

One participant had this to say on the call:
"I thought that was totally brilliant, I was absolutely riveted. It was just beautiful you were in a dance with her. Being a leadership coach, I have such an appreciation for how you got her into a new perspective and conversation and about this being a leadership moment and she wasn’t even considering it… so you covered an enormous amount of territory in such a short time."

Some of the participant's take-aways:
"Letting the client sit with their mess and trusting they will find the answers they need, to just keep being curious."

"That in 30 minutes Kathy masterfully touched on ALL of the ICF core competencies except #10!"

"The benefit of helping the client distinguish between ''being'' and ''doing''.

"The modeling of how patience, acceptance and total respect for where the client is at could lead to a break through."

"The reminder to allow the process to unfold as it/the client wants to. That's another way of saying it's vital to hold the client naturally creative, resourceful and whole. I'm renewing the practice of allowing the client to reveal their truth slowly, if necessary. I don't need to rush it, or force some kind of breakthrough."

Master Certified Personal, Career & Business Coach
Special Bonus: Laura's Wisdom Access Questions (WAQ's)- a list of 100 questions to use with our clients
 

For this call Laura demonstrated her initial coaching consultation session.

Coaching Scenario: This client is not in the coaching profession, she has never been coached before and this is the first time that she and Laura have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I am being recruited for a number of different positions, including a partnership in starting a new business, all in the world of Educational Technology. EdTech is such a high demand field right now and I have at least 6 different potential clients or employers recruiting me. I'm not sure how to proceed or how to leave myself enough flexibility to explore options!"

I asked the client the question that Laura requires all potential clients to answer prior to their initial consultation. I sent the answers to Laura. She then reviews the 3 answers with the client during the session and uses them to show her just how beneficial coaching will be.

Master Certified Business Coach (for solopreneurs in the helping fields)
Bonus:  Additional 15 minutes for extra Q&A

Note: Lynn gave us the option of hearing her demonstrate one her regular business coaching sessions which as she put it "often-times brushes up against consulting" or a life coaching session which would be more of the pure form of coaching.

Coaching Scenario: The client is a coach and this is the first time that she and Lynn have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: She is retired from Estee Lauder as a top sales person.

Some of the participant take-aways: 

• Excellent coaching/consulting combination that is invaluable for those of us who have to do both!
• Lynn exuded a powerful coaching presence as a listener and was able to use her expertise masterfully in a coaching context
• The coach consistently asked the client to look within, and use what worked for her in the past, and to simplify her future strategy by repeating what works for her, and getting out of her own way. 
• Loved seeing how the coach was very direct while staying in rapport with the client. I also thought the direct communication helped to facilitate the client’s awareness
• To give myself permission to make a strong statement when it feels right--as long as I have rapport with my client and allow the client the same freedom, i.e., to not be attached to how the client responds—it’s okay to say it doesn’t land right or that I’m off base. 
• Im taking away witnessing total presence, validation, acknowledgement, and direct communication, in addition to insight from being stretched and challenged, and growth from the client.
• How to intervene as an “expert” with powerful questions to create openings.
• Monetizing value we bring to the table for our client as coaches.
• Some business strategies for growing my practice

• Asking permission to ask powerful questions and not be afraid to ask them.
• I loved the question about what would her client want to declare and walking her through the process.
• I really picked up on the coach’s “groundedness” she was describing, and that is something I aspire to work on, and achieve with my clients.
• The HOW to have a conversation and when is critical as a leader
• I got so much from  the 5 conversations she talked about in the Q&A

Call #2

Coaching Scenario: Sue didnt want to know anything about the client ahead of time and so did not see her topic. The client is not in the coaching profession, in fact has never been coached before and this was the first time she and Sue had ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I've recently started a small business and am still working full-time as an elementary teacher. I want to be coached on how to make my vision a reality. I know what I want and I know my business ideas are high value, but it's difficult to go from employee to business owner. The very successful people I know are driven and have laser-sharp focus on their goals. I want to have that same sharpness and live up to my potential."

Some participant take-aways:

• The coach clarified with little words which allowed the client to feel heard without too much recapping/paraphrasing done from the coach. I am working on this skill set right now in my sessions. It is a skill that feels challenging at the moment to master. Nice to see it in action; thank you.
• Several ways to pull from the client that which she already knows. Powerful affirming throughout the call the client can expand upon. A lot of wonderful concepts for the client to take in...and draw from.
• Just affirming that in my business coaching it serves sometimes to be a bit more directive... especially through the power of observations and reflecting.
• Consciously using the 3 part questions Sue identified in order to set the contract
• What I liked most from this call was all the acknowledgements Sue gave Jennifer. The client struggles with what people will think of her (her success/failure) and to have a lot of positive acknowledgements of who she is (not just what she has done), I think was very important. I also noticed and liked that the coach picked up on the client’s values of contribution and fulfillment.
• Assisting a client to move from a long agenda to their main desire for the session
• I appreciated how much time the coach spent on setting the agenda and how clear the process was 
• Intimacy - “into me see” - great reminder to work with client to delve into self-awareness

Coaching Scenario: He is not in the coaching profession, he has never been coached before and this is the first time he and Sue ever met or spoke.

Coaching Topic: This is what he submitted (but the conversation changed): 
"I'm half-way through a career transition with one foot in real estate (my original career) and one foot in app development (new career). I tend not to promote myself well and I think it's because I suffer from Impostor Syndrome, the feeling that one is afraud and does not deserve success despite evidence to the contrary. I think that feeling has prevented me from really growing my real estate business and it seems to be holding me back from promoting my 1st app in the iOS app store or promoting myself as an app developer in general."

Some of the participant feedback:

• Deep listening is so crucial to good coaching. 
• The importance of really understanding and defining what the client wants to take away from the call. It is the responsibility of the coach to clarify and make sure both the coachee and the coach understand the language and intent of the coachee in regard to the topic.
• Don't hold back, BE with your client, establish the relationship with authenticity and love. Go to the heart of the matter.
• As a coach, I want to show up as my own best self. Clients are on their own timeline.
• Patience with myself
• Importance on setting the agreement and checking back in with client to make sure the call is moving in his/her desired direction

• I could really see the shift in today’s supervisee. She had some enlightening moments...
• The value of coaching supervision to improving our coaching capacities.
• Reflecting on is there a possibility there is something we have not seen here together, and offering that inquiry to my client to co-create.
• I loved- Normative, Formative, Restorative and the summary that Damian gave toward the end of the call.

Executive, Leadership & Coach Supervisor for this call
Special Bonus: the call is extended for an additional 30 minutes to cover the elements below.

This was a different kind of call & an MMC first!
2 MCCs for the price of one!
 

• Sam begins by talking to us about coaching supervision, his passion and area of expertise.
• Then we hear Sherryl T. Christie coaching one of her real world executive clients
• Sam then demonstrates what he talked about and actually supervises Sherryl
• Finally there's a Q&A

Coaching Scenario: Mike the client, is an executive and he and Sherryl have been coaching together off and on since 2011. They have been on a bit of a hiatus and so this is the first session theyve had for about 7 months.

Coaching Topic: Mike says his pattern has been to micro manage and take on things that other people arent handling well but knows it’s not sustainable or in the best interest of anyone. He's given an employee a huge project but feels this employee has a similar pathology. The project is not going well and the team is having problems with him. Mike says he’s always been of the mindset “accomplish the mission at any cost” and tends to be a direct bottom line kind of guy. He really wants to know how to approach this differently so that he can help the employee to develop his skillset and grow while also accomplishing the goals of the company.

Some of the participant take-aways:

Super-vision! Love it! Thanks to Sam and Sherryl for this learning experience! 
Gratefulness to witness 2 coaching sessions one being supervision of an MCC. Wow!
How, when direct communication is done with the intent of helping the client get back on track, it can be very powerful.
Thank you for integrating supervision and doubling the MCCs, I so appreciate the variety and complexity.
As Sheryl spoke about, I am often ahead of my clients and need to slow down even more.
Great to listen to the coaching session within the supervision context. How do you know when you are a good enough coach?? was an amazing supervision question. 
Paying attention to parallel processes in my coaching sessions...i.e. me doing with the client what he/she is doing in his/her life.
Continuing to note my own urges to advise and not coach.
This call was fantastic, thank you! I loved Sam’s introduction to and definition of supervision: in that it helps the beginner and master coach, increase the moments of mastery. Brilliant!
I will forever continue the process of supervision/mentor coaching in order to continue to be my best self, and best coach for my clients.
Loved learning about super-vision and the difference between that and mentor coaching.
How useful it is to have an observer of the observer!
Excellent learning opportunity
When we hope for but don’t see results in a session, we must remember that the client needs time to reflect. The learning and action most often come after the session.

Executive, Leadership Development & Coach Supervision
Bonuses: additional 15 minutes to demo coach supervision,  PDFs -Creative Possibilities in Coaching and Coaching Gets Results

Different kind of call!

Kathleen of course demonstrated MCC coaching skills. She initially though talked to us about the specific skills she intended to (an did) focus on in during the session e.g. immediacy and creativity.

After the coaching there was Q&A and Kathleen asked for some of the participants to share what they picked up on and how they might have used those skills in the session and then got feedback from the client.

Finally during the bonus 15 minutes Kathleen demonstrated coaching supervision with a coach who's having a challenge with one of her clients. Kathleen also showed us how those same skills that she spoke about and demonstrated, show up in coaching supervision!

Coaching Scenario: The client is a coach. She and Kathleen met a few yesr ago in a workshop and they have peer coached each other a couple times a year. 

Coaching Topic:  Wants to focus on how her life will look and feel in the near future. She has come through a period of great demands- her work, children, aging parents etc. with her "head down just going through the motions" and she wants to move forward in a more "thoughtful way"

Some of the participant take-aways:

• I loved the uniqueness of this MMC call, everything from listening in with the intent to notice images, feelings, metaphors, and colors that come up for me during the coaching session, and how to use them to assist the client, and the uplifting positive vibration of the call by inviting in play (despite the topic which felt gray at times). Loved watching the gray shift for the client to yellow, all within the framework of metaphor and imagery was pretty fascinating. I also loved the bonus session, of an example group mentor coaching session/speeddating supervision.? LOL. Can’t wait to learn more from Kathleen.
• To give myself permission to think less and feel more
• It ranks at the top of my experiences with these valuable calls. I have been exploring listening to the stillness under the words and her share and demonstration if immediacy was amazing.
• I definitely learned some new skills from this call, in addition to feeling myself dusting off some of my old skills that I previously had in my tool box that may have had some cob webs on them. (See that right there, already using metaphor; it feels contagious after this call). LOL I plan to practice the new and the old skills more in my coaching sessions with my clients, because it was a beautiful demonstration of how helpful they can be with a client.
• Expressing how I feel when listening to client - the power of mirror neurons 
• Reminder of the power of feelings, mirroring, metaphors, and intuition as tools in the coaching conversation to help move things forward and open pathways
• I loved this call. This was a great demonstration of the coach using immediacy and other creative resources i.e., metaphor, images, sounds, etc. throughout the coaching process. The supervision part of the call was really interesting as I was in the fishbowl. Very insightful. I can see how supervision--working as a group or individually--could be very valuable.
• How important a tool it is to connect to emotional listening so you can dance in the moment with the client
•  The imagery Kathleen used with me was great. Helped me as client and coach!

Master Certified Complex People Dynamics in the Workplace, Leadership Coach
Bonus: Additional 15 minutes of Q&A
 

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession, she has received some kind of coaching in the past and this was the first time that she and Amy have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: Wants to learn how to communicate with a difficult manager-he crosses boundaries, talks disrespectfully, eavesdrops on conversations and reads emails etc. She works in the financial industry and finds boundaries get crossed or blurred a lot. So wants to know how to set boundaries and learn how to broach difficult situations/conversations, handle them in a professional and diplomatic way and not let them fester.

Some participant take-aways:

• I would rate this one of the three best calls in my long time Moore Master Call subscription.
• “There are 100 pathways to get up the mountain with the client”. If you confine yourself to a specific process, you cannot dance in the moment.
• When you can trust the client to lead the way, you will be a masterful coach.
• Coaching presence - Amy has it in spades!
• To “discern when to insert yourself and when to step out”
• Thank you Gail! I look forward to listening to the call again.
• I thought Amy was terrific -- great questions, great ability in balancing her model with really “getting” the energy of the client and working with it...like skipping “steps” because she had a really responsive client.
• The power of reframing the issue so it’s about what the client can focus on changing her mindset rather than trying to change the other person
• Having the mindset of a leader in the industry--exhibiting confidence and not second guessing myself. The “LEAD” coaching model. 
• To consistently work on myself—“push own growing edge”; I need to walk the talk--model the work I ask of my clients. 
• I absolutely loved Amy’s coaching and candid answers in the Q&A

Master Certified Confidence Coach

Recorded On: April 21, 2016
 

Coaching Scenario: This client is not in the coaching profession, has never been coached before and this is the first time she and Ben have ever met or spoken

Coaching Topic: "My biggest challenge right now is that I have become an emotional eater and gained 60 lbs during this stressful time.   It is deeply related to business.  I need to appear on TV and in photography for the business beginning this month and in a video for Amazon.  I am truly reluctant to do so because of the weight I am carrying and how I feel---however---my company desperately needs me to bring my “A” game if we are to rise."

Some of the participant take-aways:

• This call was one of the best coaching sessions I have ever heard. Ben really let the entire session unfold naturally and got her to really connect to her body. I love the way he allowed her to connect her weight challenge to the real "challenge" of carrying the burden of the downfall of her company and how that was stuck in her cellular memory. I actually had a shift in myself during this coaching session! Thank you!
• masterful handling of coaching awareness and presence
• Great use of imagery and lots of great metaphors
• This was a great call! Ben’s ability to adapt and go where the client needed to be was simply beautiful. What unfolded was a masterful demonstration of coaching in the presence of deep emotions. 
• I was so struck by ben’s compassion and the loving kindness with which he held the client!
• Trust in my intuition, listen to it, and offer it to the client to take or leave as she sees fit. 
• What a beautiful being he is--honest, vulnerable, humble, funny and so articulate--thank you for allowing us to hear him!
• Value of being fully present, agile and available emotionally to hold the space for a client
• Trust in myself and client-there isnt always somewhere to go; to be ok with saying we may or may not get there-let's see what we discover-giving us permission not to have an outcome
• Inspiration and desire to continue building my own mastery. Grateful to be able to observe an authentic conversation with a truly masterful and compassionate coach.
• He was a master of validation and empathy. I will use this! To not have to force our way to get a certain outcome by the end of the coaching session. He is truly a master.
• The power of presence, and trust in oneself, the client, and the process. Masterful coaching is about letting go of preconceived ideas and plans--moving with the client, and adapting to what’s needed in the moment.

And you can see Ben's call where he and 2 other Master Coaches coach the same client back to back under the "3 MCC" tab

Master Certified Executive, Leadership, Confidence & Transformational Coach

Bonus: 30 additional minutes of discussion and Q&A at the end of the call on what it takes to go from a good coach to a great one

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession. She has had coaching in the past but this is the frist time that she and David have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I am a 56-year-old getting started as a speaker/consultant on leadership issues in technical companies.  I’ve written a book, gotten a nice sparkly website, but my biggest issue is “imposter syndrome”.   I still have that feeling that I have no business advising anyone on leadership issues, even though I have an MBA, plenty of management experience, and plenty of compliments on my insights and abilities with people.  And of course, I’ve written a book on leadership!   But still there’s that voice whispering to me “nah, not you, hon”. That’s what I’m looking to get past."

Some of the participant take-aways:

• It was a pleasure to observe such powerful coaching! One of the best coaching demonstrations. I loved the authenticity and boldness of his coaching.
• Brilliant coaching! David not only challenged the client, he challenged me to think about how I can add more value as a coach. His provocative comments about the future of coaching should be heeded by every coach.
• Coaching is more than helping create insight for the client. It’s also about helping the client to take action by getting “ridiculously specific” regarding the steps he/she will take and the “speed bumps” that may get in the way.
• Inspiration and a model for truly masterful coaching. Impressive work! I will listen to this session again.
• How boldness is the gateway to great coaching.
• One of the best coaching demonstrations. I loved the authenticity and boldness of his coaching.
• I am committed to paying more attention to when I turn away from an opportunity to take a risk with a client.
• Both client and coach were dynamic!
• Other valuable lessons I learned: be willing to be wrong more, be aware of the power dynamic in coaching, and challenge my clients more.
• Use of humor, reframing, digging with depth to achieve insight
• His coaching presence, in terms of presentation and content, was masterful.
• Be confident enough to be wrong. Find the issue and then anchor it.

David Goldsmith's was a guest again for a different kind of call & an MMC first!

Please note: extended call time (to 90 minutes) & how this call was different!

David was a guest in January (the above call) and coached a woman not in the coaching profession, who has had some coaching in the past but this was the first time she and David had ever met or spoken. This call is a participant favorite!

David coached her again on this call as a follow-up session.

The coaching was conducted similarly to the way coaches train the pro athletes by breaking down and examining the action play by play. So David coached in a start and stop fashion giving us the opportunity in the moment to engage with David, the client and the coaching in a very participatory way.

• Wow! What a beautiful coaching session and life lesson!
• That paraphrasing fears to the point of ridiculousness brings levity to a situation and allows the client to reset.
• The impact of reflecting as a mirror the words of the client so that they can hear it.
• The importance of listening to one’s gut in deciding in which direction to go during the session
• Clients will reveal where the coaching conversation can go deep. Not helpful for coaches to be too nice--okay to provoke/challenge client’s thinking. 
• Not being afraid to try different things to get to that “thing”; that will be of value and get results. 
• It is always a pleasure to observe David and his powerful coaching! Thank you for having him back again. I learn so much from him.
• I admire his confidence in his own intuition; and how he is not attached to being right, he simply “has a hypothesis” and tests it out. It is such a masterful tool, and this is what I strive to always connect to in my coaching sessions.
• He modeled brilliantly how to step over the potential therapy issues regarding her past, but used the depth and pain from those experiences in a coaching framework. 
• The logic and simplicity David used to shed light into the unconscious fears / beliefs.

• The power of a using a simple but masterful technique with a client in stuck state to create movement

• Really being patient and be ok with waiting for the clients best thinking.

• Power of acknowledging the client’s strengths; offering options
• Challenging clients to make changes in their lives; to take next steps towards their goals
• Focusing on what the client gives (in his business) and seeing it as a gift as well as a gift of the choice he is giving the person he is approaching. 
• A masterful coach is open to reflecting about what could have gone better in a session and to feedback.
• ​When the client is stuck, knows what to do but isn’t doing it, offer a challenge.

Special Bonus: Video of a webinar Janet gave for ICF New England Chapter-Lifelong Learning Journey to Artful Mastery

Coaching Scenario: This client is not in the coaching profession. She has been coached in the past as an employee by a manager and has had some group business coaching. This was the 1st time that she and Janet had ever met or spoken. In fact Janet preferred not to know anything about the client or her topic before the session.

Coaching Topic: She's an action actress, fight coordinator, stand-up comic and an independent writer, director & producer. She needs to start another production company and to do so she needs to mentor with top producers, distributors and directors.

She wants help choosing the right people to partner with- those that she can work well with and depend on-- people who keep their word. Also how to motivate people to do what they say they're going to do.

Some of the participant feedback:

"What an incredible call today! Hats off to Janet."

"Janet was exceptional - she felt it wasn't as masterful, but I thought she was amazing - it was her calm, really holding her coaching space."

"I found this call most fascinating! It was masterful the way Janet Harvey used interruption to constantly refocus the client as Janet later said, "to hear her own strength". Truly masterful!  I will be listening to this recording many more times.  Of all the sessions I have heard  over the past 2 years, I found this the most intriguing. Being able to coach someone about whom one knows nothing, bar the information gleaned in the coaching session is truly masterful."

"The session was an opportunity for me to witness how a master coach leads a client from being a processor who reaches out for external answers to becoming a person capable of identifying her own internal strengths; it was also a demonstration of an approach that promotes a full development of both meaning and personal visions. The session brought to light the importance of uncovering intrinsic motivations: it was not the drive for money that has propelled the client to get involved with the production world but rather her wish to communicate/disseminate and educate for high moral standards. I found it inspiring to follow the ease and fluency with which the coaching conversation evolved."

Coaching Scenario: Joseph is not in the coaching profession, has never been coached before and this is the first time he and Terrie have ever met or spoken

Coaching Topic: "I get 95% of a project completed, and then won't finish the rest. I
have several books that are "almost done". I wrote business plans and then shelved them. I can easily finish projects for other people and other businesses, but when It comes to me, I often let things fall by the sidelines.A lot of times I get distracted by new projects. What's the block, what is stopping me from getting things done? Im very skilled with lots of education, why cant I finish things?"

Some of the participant take-aways:

How powerful simply holding space for a client to explore really can be, especially when done with lightness!

I’m taking away joy with Terrie's coaching! Effortless, light & true impact.

Just that master's touch - giving power to the client, light but deep, EASY!

Terrie beautifully and lightly accompanied Joseph in his exploration...she articulated and pointed to areas that were coming up in the exploration that he may not have been aware of, to help him decide where to focus their time. He was really the ''star'' of this session. Also loved what she said about getting trapped as coaches listening too closely to the words but to listen to the energy as well as the words...loved that.

I am going to try to wear the metaphor of my client being the ''star'' and me being the able reflector and observer, lightly accompanying him on his journey and pointing things out along the way. I quite like that.

Continue to stay curious, get agreement from the client, check in with the client, acknowledge, and go deeper--not rush to strategies and/or problem solving.

And you can see Terrie's call where she and 2 other Master Coaches coach the same client back to back under the "3 MCC" tab

Coaching scenario: The client is an ongoing client of Micki's, they have had @4-5 previous sessions. He is not in the coaching profession but is planning on taking Micki's Transformational Coaching program

Coaching topic: It is a very disconcerting, uncomfortable and confusing time for him. All the things he once felt such passion about no longer hold much interest. He feels like he's just going through the motions. This isnt the way he wants to live his life. He wants to be present and feel grateful. Knows he's in the midst of big changes, doesnt have a clue as to what they are and initially thinks he wants some coping skills to help him until he figures out where he's headed.

Some of the feedback from participants:

"I was really reminded about the power and value of coaching presence and holding that space for emerging awareness. It seemed to me that the movement this client experienced was energized by the container the coach created and held throughout the session, and her connection to him and her clarity about where he was every minute of the session."

"The call was excellent and definitely helped me grow as a coach through seeing the benefit of having the client move from head/analyzing to the heart of his desire. It was very valuable as I am pursuing licensure as a HeartMath Coach in the future."

"The topic was very similar to topics my clients bring to me and the coach's work with this client was validating."

"Very valuable as it went deeply into the personal level, right into the heart of the client, which is my coaching goal."

"Invaluable call today because the coaching was simple and classic. Foundational - no bells and whistles, just pure. I''m walking away with a reminder to go slow, easy - step by step."

Client Scenario:She is not in the coaching profession, she has had some coaching in the past but this is the first time she and Madeleine have ever or met or spoken.

Client Topic:"I am currently in an unfulfilling job and I have digestive health issues that are not being resolved through diet and supplements. I am a creative person and I’m travel-mad and I currently want to leave my job and travel around the world to heal and write about my experiences – a blog first, a book later. But I have fear about this – about financially surviving; about what will happen when I return from my travels; about my safety on the road; about not being able to get rid of my health issues; about how to even write a book! I would like to be coached on how to get past that fear and take the leap."

Some of the participant take-aways:

•    How to listen underneath to what is not being said but is very present and then bringing it to the forefront to check out with the client
•    Listen closely and reflect observations - as Madeleine did so well
•    I appreciated that Madeleine was so open and transparent about her own vulnerabilities as a coach.
•     It was a great example of allowing the client to be the expert of her life.
•    Madeline very honestly discussed challenges she sometimes has self-managing when client is very fearful. Extremely helpful to me 
•    To be comfortable not ”doing a whole lot” letting the process unfold.
•    Even as a master coach, I value the opportunity to hear my peers coach clients, and I specifically like how Mad opened the conversation.
•    I loved her initial question “What I’m hearing sounds like you have a vision” I got chills from how that shifted the client quickly.
•    The benefits a client can obtain from a skilled, present listener asking powerful questions!
•    Loved the honest Q and A afterwards - so informative!
•    To be fully aware of how my own beliefs, feelings, fears, could influence the coaching conversation. To help manage myself by continually bringing it back to questions for the client. 
•    I loved how Madeleine checked in “how does that land?” and “does that feel right?”
•    Don’t tiptoe around the client’s vision! Help client claim it even it’s scary.

Master Certified Creative & ADD/ADHD Coach

Recorded on: March 14, 2012

Coaching Scenario: The client is not in the coaching profession and this is the first time that she and Barbara have ever met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: "I'm an artist, author and creative catalyst. Ioften start things and don't finish them - I know I have sabotaged my success in many ways due to difficulty focusing, too many ideas, feeling spacey etc! The topic I would like to be coached on is: how to set up systems that will work for me so I can follow through on my numerous ideas/projects floating around in my head. Being a super duper creative right brained person means the systems have to be colorful and easy for me to follow."

"The Barbara Luther call was phenomenal. She immediately heard beneath the client's stated agenda and gently unpeeled the layers of the onion to reveal the core of the matter and the client's wisdom. A beautiful example of coaching at its very finest!
Thank-you, Gail! I'm so glad to have discovered MMC and to have access to hearing coaches at the top of our profession."~Sally Ward, PCC, CPCC Ward Leadership

 "The call today was extremely helpful to me. For me it was an example of really being present to the client and getting over there with the client and allowing them to discover their brilliance. It was also really helpful for me as I am working in a business relationship with a coach who recognizes that she has some ADD traits."~D. Petersen, BCC - Coaching for Well Being

"I enjoyed listening to the call with Barbara Luther. I noticed how Barbara shared information and then very quickly returned power to the client, without needing to resort to being overly directive. It worked beautifully. She kept the integrity of the partnership, kept the client moving forward, and maximized the efficiency of the call. It was excellent session management. Her information about ADD seemed to be well-founded and truly useful to the client. She did all this with ease and good humor. A lovely experience. Thank you." ~Bobbie Burdett, BCC, PCC (applicant), Director of Training HealthWorld Online, www.authenticoach.com 

"Thank you to you Gail and to Barbara for choosing me for this teleseminar.  I really enjoyed the session and have a few wonderful take aways to use in my toolkit. I sure appreciate it!" ~Violette- the client on the call

Recorded on: March24, 2016
 

Coaching Scenario:This client is not in the coaching profession, she has never been coached before and this is the first time she and Jennifer have met or spoken.

Coaching Topic: I've spent a lot of time in the Middle East working with Iraqi, Palestinian and Syrian refugees and am now writing a book about my experiences.  8 chapters have been awarded 19 literary awards.  Several chapters appear in 7 anthologies, including one published by Random House and another that won a Benjamin Franklin Award and is used in college classes.  I've had very positive feedback. But I can't seem to finish. I have 2 or 3 final chapters to go and a few more chapters to polish.  The end is so close (after 7 years!), but I haven't touched the book in several months.

Participant take-aways:

• Some powerful questions that helped to shift the client and also a reminder that listening to the client’s language or criteria words is very important.
• Jennifer’s holistic approach with the client to call forth greater awareness
• Remembering not to think I know the answer for the client.
• Use of intuition with coaching and setting that up in the agreement so that there is a free flow during the coaching session.
• The importance of not being attached to an outcome
• Incorporating more of “what’s showing up for you?” type of questions and sharing what’s showing up for me. Jennifer mentioned she and her clients have an understanding that she’ll do that on the call. I need to establish that myself.
• To me Kelly, was a tough client to coach and that in itself was instructional to watch Jennifer approach it. It’s like live TV, you never know what is going to happen. I thought it was great.
• I will use some of Jennifer’s excellent questions as opportunity presents.
• Jennifer’s humility and transparency were wonderful examples for me
• I like that Jennifer had she and her client take a deep breath together. When my client is stressed, I ask her if she’dd like to take a couple relaxing breaths and if she’d like me to lead her through it. But, we can do that together in order to set the stage that we are equal partners, in this together

Master Certified Emotional Agility Coach
Author of Save Your Inner Tortoise
Bonuses: Carol's audio Spend Less Time in Fear & $50 off her video course Freedom From Excessive Guilt
Recorded on: 9/19/13

Coaching Scenario: This client was not in the coaching profession. He had received group coaching as a part of his business at a conference but never one on one or on personal issues. This was the first time he and Carol had ever met or spoken, however Carol did send me 3 questions to send to the client prior to the call.

Coacing Topic: He's dealing with doubt and feelings of inadequacy. Hes a consultant- he works with people, asks them questions then formulates a plan that makes sense only to find out they missed the whole point or didnt at all capture what they talked about. So he wonders, did I not deliver, did I confuse them? If the 1st 2 prospects buy he's feeling confident and the next 3 dont, he begins to doubt and wonders what he's doing wrong. He's having difficulty getting anything to stick and its hard to keep going, to stay motivated- his energy disappears.

Coaching Scenario: Cindy brought the client to the call. She was someone who Cindy had coached in the past mostly around business issues. So it was a bit of a surprise to Cindy when she came with an emotional, personal relationship issue.

Coaching Topic: "I have a lingering issue with a break up of a relationship that I chose to end that I'm having difficulty working through. I ended the relationship but I'm stuck with the consequences of having him live here with me on a six month lease. And I can't seem to shed the anger around how it made me feel to need to end the relationship and not be able to get him out of my life."

While relationships are not specifically Cindys niche/area of expertise, the management of one's energy is applicable to every area of life and she coached her beautifully!

Like they say, after the 1st 3 sessions, all coaching is life coaching, no matter what the niche. And what a treat & a treasure to hear how a master does it!

Some of the participant take-aways:

• "This coach demonstrated powerful presence with this client. You could hear how closely he was tracking her and how deeply he was listening."
• "Clients know what they need. When coaches stay present, in service of the client and asking powerful questions clients open to their deeper knowing." 
• "I loved listening to Phillip coach Ellie. I admire how he follows his intuition and his hunches and then asked clarifying questions to get more information on what’s really going on for the client. He listened carefully (active listening) to her, to what was said and not said. He picked up on her use of the word ‘permission” and followed it to and all that it revealed for her, without her even realizing she used that word."
• "Getting to topic quickly when there is a menu of topics, powerful questioning to have the client lead where the session is going, repeatedly clarifying and taking a new topic on if indicated by client as priority."
•  "Loved what Philip said about the ICF competencies--that the best coaches integrate the competencies into their lives. The competencies are reflected in how they live their lives."
• "To never assume that the client and myself hold the same meaning for a particular word. To listen for the client’s use of words and to check in regarding the client’s definition of words. Also, to continue to check in with the client regarding the coaching agreement."
• " I liked his comment on understanding learning styles to really be there with the clientas well as integrating the competencies into who you are personally."
• "Q and A was most valuable!"
• "Establish norms for coaching and their interaction together."
• "Keep it simple. Define language in their own words."

• "The use of inquiry structure to keep the question alive."
• "The "discipline" of "holding back" on the part of the coach"
• "This was a powerful reminder that clients have all the knowing they need inside them, we can't add any richness by leading or having an agenda for them, and that powerful questions are simple, short and open-ended."

Coaching Topic: "I'd wag my tail over the opportunity to be coached on how to have my Pet Disaster Preparedness and First Aid trainings reach that next level!  My topic may be niche however, pets are part of the family evidenced by the $63 billion pet care industry and the unending disasters occurring round the globe.  So many more animals, and the people who love them, could benefit from my help while bringing me sustainable income, so I need guidance to build upon my books, courses, celebrity students and TV segments to make it a reality!"

Some of the participants take-aways:

• “Changed my views on what constitutes a brilliant demonstration! Hearing the master coach fall into the trap of trying to solve the problem but quickly catching herself was amazing. It was really valuable for me to see how she successfully turned it around.”
• “I loved when the coach immediately interrupted the client when she used the word “obnoxious” to describe herself. That was a turning point in the call. And it’s a good reminder going forward of when it’s really important to interrupt a client.”
• “Getting client to narrow the problem early on saves time!”
• “The use of the internal question (by Alan Seale)  “What wants to happen here?”
• “How to use powerful questions for almost all of the coach communication to the client”
• “Clients are frequently in need of confidence boosting- trying to solve their problems for them does not support their becoming more confident in their own competence and abilities to address/solve their own challenges.”
• “The use of somatic coaching: starting a call by asking the client to take a few deep breaths to center herself; asking where the client feels or experiences something.”
• “Wynne had the grace and humility to “catch herself” and tell all of us when she fell into the trap of fixing. Takes great courage and self-awareness to do this.”

Some of the participants take-aways:

• I appreciated how although he had a teacher student relationship with the client outside the call, that was not apparent in the session at all. And I think that has a lot to do with him honoring the client as the expert in her life, and that was a beautiful example of that. I will be taking that reminder away from this call.
• Mickey had a great relationship and connection with his client. His presence, and tracking with her was on point. He spent a lot of time establishing the agenda. Her goal of getting clear on her vision really evolved from the beginning of the call to the end thanks to his coaching. He used many coaching tools in the toolbox, acknowledging, scaling, metaview, etc.
• Great call. I would love to have his dissertation to read. Can you/he forward to us. I enjoyed his interaction and insights he shared on the extra time.
• The exploration phase is key...take the time.
• Thanks so much! Helpful to hear another coach explore a pioneering venture. 
• PCC sessions are usually 50% awareness where MCC sessions aim for 100% awareness, with any actions flowing naturally from that awareness
• I want to pay more attention to my level of awareness when I’m coaching.
• Concrete example on helping a client articulate vision/passion/values 
• His distinctions between PCC and MCC coaching.

• This was a pleasure and a gift opportunity to hear a different style of MCC coaching. 
• A fabulous coaching session. The Q and A afterwards was especially rewarding.

Some of the participant take-aways as well as the client feedback a week after the call:

• Elegant demo of powerful coaching at its best. The coach listened deeply, asked the most powerful questions and held the space for the client to listen to her own thoughts and move through her confusion to brilliant clarity. 
• One of the best masterful coaching session I have ever heard.
• I really enjoyed the call; the coach trusted the client to be the expert, to be creative, and resourceful. Her thinking process exemplified the clients ability to go deep. Very deep! And think new thoughts/ideas she has not before. 
• What stood out to me was hearing the coach’s presence and confidence in providing the space for the client to be listened to, like she may not have ever been listened to before. What a gift. 
• The call today with Jane was awe-inspiring, and her approach to coaching resonated with me who has used the Socratic method in teaching.  Thanks again.
• Asking the client, at the beginning, for a clue/symbol they will use to let the coach know when they are ready for the next question. And, closing with appreciation for a specific trait observed in the client.
• This was a fascinating call that demonstrated the power of presence, powerful questioning, and trust in the client’s ability to think for herself.
• To be aware of how I’m showing up as a coach--especially my assumptions about my clients’ abilities to be resourceful and think for themselves--to avoid “directing” their thinking. To be present and ask questions that “free” their minds.
• Don’t be afraid to keep asking the same question! And what else? And what else?
• Great demo. I appreciated the opportunity to be educated about the Thinking Environment and being the Thinking Partner.
• I really liked Jane’s intro and the way in which she set up the call for success. I think I’m going to spend some time working on my intro/agreement, by discussing my style, and being upfront about the way I coach by mentioning it at the start. I can see how it really would help find the right client-coach match. 
• Really appreciated such a beautiful demonstration of this process. 
• Idea of helping foster client “independent thinking” in tackling situations where they are feeling stuck. “The purpose of the coach it not to direct the client’s mind, but rather to help free it.”

You can read a powerful quote from Jane about the TE work, more takeaways and what the client reported 1 week after this session under the Thinking Environment tab.

To witness Vikki Brock's trust- in herself, the client and the coaching process was awe-inspiring and the best motivator in the world. To give just one example- unexpected “stuff” came up for the client in the last minutes of the session and she suddenly became very emotional. It was really wonderful to witness Vikki's mastery. There was no sense of urgency on her part, she continued to remain totally present with the client, honored where she was and helped move her through it by asking a series of 3 powerful questions.
The first of which was “And how does that relate to who you are as a human being and the love you bring into the world?” 

"These calls you're providing where coaches get to hear master coaches coaching and then ask questions is really very important work."~Vikki Brock

Coaching Scenario: Michelle hasn’t been a formal client of Elene’s since 2008. However she and Elene have worked together  professionally since then in joint workshops. Michelle is a speech pathologist and they have also brought each other in on different engagements.  And so in 2017 Elene asked Michelle if she would like a free coaching session in exchange for the session being recorded and submitted for the exam.

Coaching Topic: Wants to know how to deal with mistakes. How to get back on track and not get cynical about it. How to continue to have things continue to be working and humming along without being hard on herself. Wants to balance the extremes.

Some of the participant take-aways:

• Very impressed by her master skill level. So many golden nuggets, but I guess my biggest takeaway was her use of the clients words, and how she consistently wove them back in to the conversation. It allowed the client to really feel heard and understood
• A truly memorable call. I will listen and re-listen to this recording many times.
• What taking time to explore the coaching agreement looks like in practice
• So many great tips for the MCC exam.
• What a fabulous call! There were so many powerful and immediately useful takeaways. The one that sticks out is related to not uttering affirming sounds as the clients speaking because that it is considered interrupting the client.
• Some of the pointers to look for when doing a recording.
• The power of silence for both the coach and the client. 
• How MCC coaching differs in quality from PCC coaching-specifically the critical element of designing the coaching agreement (can take a large part of the session) and coaching presence How she reflected back what she was hearing and tied themes together throughout the call
• I’m so glad she shared her assessment feedback.
• Another great call! My head is spinning with new things to practice.
• The work, practice and preparation it takes to reach the MCC level!

Executive & Leadership Coach
Special Bonus: the call is extended for an additional 30 minutes to cover the elements below.

This was a different kind of call & an MMC first!
2 MCCs for the price of one!

• Sam Magill MCC  (executive and coach supervisor for this call) begins by talking to us about coaching supervision, his passion and area of expertise.
• Then we hear Sherryl T. Christie coaching one of her real world executive clients
• Sam then demonstrates what he talked about and actually supervises Sherryl
• Finally there's a Q&A

Coaching Scenario: Mike the client, is an executive and he and Sherryl have been coaching together off and on since 2011. They have been on a bit of a hiatus and so this is the first session theyve had for about 7 months.

Coaching Topic: Mike says his pattern has been to micro manage and take on things that other people arent handling well but knows it’s not sustainable or in the best interest of anyone. He's given an employee a huge project but feels this employee has a similar pathology. The project is not going well and the team is having problems with him. Mike says he’s always been of the mindset “accomplish the mission at any cost” and tends to be a direct bottom line kind of guy. He really wants to know how to approach this differently so that he can help the employee to develop his skillset and grow while also accomplishing the goals of the company.

Some of the participant take-aways:

Super-vision! Love it! Thanks to Sam and Sherryl for this learning experience! 
Gratefulness to witness 2 coaching sessions one being supervision of an MCC. Wow!
How, when direct communication is done with the intent of helping the client get back on track, it can be very powerful.
Thank you for integrating supervision and doubling the MCCs, I so appreciate the variety and complexity.
As Sheryl spoke about, I am often ahead of my clients and need to slow down even more.
Great to listen to the coaching session within the supervision context. How do you know when you are a good enough coach?? was an amazing supervision question. 
Paying attention to parallel processes in my coaching sessions...i.e. me doing with the client what he/she is doing in his/her life.
Continuing to note my own urges to advise and not coach.
This call was fantastic, thank you! I loved Sam’s introduction to and definition of supervision: in that it helps the beginner and master coach, increase the moments of mastery. Brilliant!
I will forever continue the process of supervision/mentor coaching in order to continue to be my best self, and best coach for my clients.
Loved learning about super-vision and the difference between that and mentor coaching.
How useful it is to have an observer of the observer!
Excellent learning opportunity
When we hope for but don’t see results in a session, we must remember that the client needs time to reflect. The learning and action most often come after the session.
