P+ C+ D+ PWhy do I need to develop? Am I not smart enough? I got into Schulich!
The Personal Competence
Development Plan is the most
popular new jargon of the 2015s.
It seems to be the central
focus of all the most exciting
discussion heard traveling throughthe Schulich halls, because it
entails one of the most important
self-discovery journeys the
students will have an opportunity
to take in their first year of
University!
It turns out you can not only
be could doing youre PCDP....but
also be caught in the act of PCDP
ing!
The enthusiasm from student
is contagious!!! No one wants to
admit how much it has become a
dear part of their lives and in the
process has changed them!
We have spent weeks and
weeks working with this personal
business diary of ours, to the point
where is almost feels awkward tobe giving it to foreign eyes to
speculate at.
But lets get down to the
bottom line here. What were we
doing this whole time? What
where we trying to accomplish
with this project whose emphasis
were on personal goals and a
reassessment of the nature and
habits that internally govern the
whereabout and attractions of our
external existence?
How did I decide what mypersonal strength was and my
personal weakness in the
beginning, and how has that
changed or stayed the same, at the
end of my journey?
These are questions ofafterthought that I feel have been
the underlying currents of
emotions and motivators through
my whole experience developing
this project and realizing it has
become a greater part of my life
then I initially thought.
So buckle up! Life isnt always
a smooth ride. But it never fails to
amuse even the most talented of
pessimists and most over
complicated life lovin Anastassias!

Well.....I graduated high school, got into University,
and was put into a class of 20 fantastic students for myMGMT tutorial, where we were assigned our PCDP and
BPTPs. The initial reaction of all students were, What is
this? with a hint of fear and uncertainty in their eyes. The
moment of enthusiasm only started to pick up after we
spoke to some upper year students and were informed on
how fun it could be! The challenging and exciting aspect
always motivates me through all my projects. But first, I
always have to completely understand what that project is.
And the first step to that was to take my Career leader test.
Career Leader Results
On my first attempt at the career leader test, if I was to
graduate from Schulich at this moment, they ranked my
first option of choice upon my leave to be going into Public
Relations and Communications, which did no surprise me
at all. Second was Law and forth Management Consulting.
But what shocked me most was when
Entrepreneurship sitting at eleventh place on my first
attempt, skyrocketed all the way to number 1 !
I think that shows that being at Schulich has mad
more innovative and open minded. Always searchingnew ideas, and making the old ones work even better
on the other hand tipped over to number 4 which isn
bad, and Management Consulting raised his head to
number 2!
Overall I am satisfied with my results and they m
sense to me.
Now, lets take a closer look at what the Personal
Competence Development Plan actually is!

CONTINUATION OFP+C+D+P
So we were to:
1) Pick a skill we thought
were good at. :))))))
2) Pick a skill we thoughtwere not so good at. :((((((
3) Put ourselves insituations we have neverbeen in before. And seehow well our perceptionsof ourselves ring true. : O
The PCDP experienceis all about the interactivitybetween you, yourknowledge and yourapplication of this knowledgein the real world! When youtake all those guidelines,advice and thoughts you havecreated through the process ofstudying your weaknesses andstrengths to the moment you
finally apply and see withyour very eyes, the product ofyour vision andcommunications with others.
Every action has aconsequence. I think we havebeen over programmed tothing that a consequence issomething bad. Is somethingwe all want to avoid.
Something we want to beliberated from.
When a consequence isreally the greatest truth. The
value of your actions, andthrough your actions theperson you become.
One of the firstepiphanys I had whenstarting to work on this
project was that if somethingbad comes out of a situation,its because it had alreadybeen programmed that wayin the beginning, or becausesomeone did not care enoughin the beginning forthemselves, or others, to catchthe error in the first stages ofdevelopment and completelyeliminate it from theprogramming of therelationship. Every project isa relationship. Is a bond thatforms, is the energy andknowledge that is being keptand given, kept and given, bitby bit people are testing howmuch is asked of them, and
how much they can get awaywith.
One of the hardest lessonsI have learned for anyoneworking in this world, is thelesson on not giving someonethe luxury or opportunity todeceive you in any way orform. The most important
personal need of a humanbeing, is that need of respectAnd the hardest lesson youlearn is how to Demand It.and Protect it.
How do you do this? WellI believe there is no easy wayof coming to terms with asituation that has worked outnot in your favor. Especiallywhen you were relied on andlet your team, your parents,but especially yourself down.
But this is the one hardlesson you learn in coachingwhich is the weakness I choseBut it was actually my
strength, Managing Conflict,that pulled me out ofconfusing thoughts, coachingcreated, and helped meunderstand the differencebetween the lightness and thedarkness of thoughts thatexists within the parametersof circumstance.

Coaching GoalsWhen I first looked through the list of of strengths and weaknesses, coaching wasnt my
weakness as much as it was a territory unexplored to me. The first question that popped to
mind was, Is something that you havent yet explored but always been curious
about necessarily, your weakness?
When I started doing more of the readings and looking into the art of coaching, I
realized a lot of if it is common sense, good will and consideration for others. Which led me
to my second question, Is a nice coach the best coach?
Many times in life, people are walking around us, and being nice, just for the sake of notcausing any discomfort to another, but not really helping them either, when they can clearly
see a person can use a hand. A coach is someone who probably has more experience then
you in some areas of life, and its their job to guide you through the process of learning. But
life is not black and white, divided by personal life and profession. Which lead me to my
third question, Is there a boundary of professionalism that a coach neednt
cross when dealing with students or is it normal and even human to feel and
try to give as much knowledge and understanding to someone regarding all
aspect of their life?
Another thing that has always been of interest to me is how a someone goes from thetransition of being a student to becoming a coach. First of being the the sponge of all this
knowledge and now squirting it back at innocent souls. When students are asked to do
something they do it, but I feel like the best classes, have always been because of the best
teacher.s Which leads me to my fourth question, Do we learn better when we are
able to relate with somebody who is not afraid to share themselves with us,
inspiring us with their confidence and love for their work, instead of
somebody who just tries to teach us by the book?
I believe being a coach is a very difficult job, even though to any student from the side it
might look like their coach is just sitting in the background giving commands. The studentteacher bond has always been an interesting one through out history. Which leads me to
my final fifth question , How does the coach and the student reach that
equilibrium of respect that motivates both partys to continue working
towards the same objective in heart, mind, and soul?
My experience in Coaching will be complete if I can manage to answer these
five questions.

Managing Conflict Goals
When I first looked though the list of choices, I felt that managing conflict, wassomething I was best at, or knew most about. Which led me to my first question. Is
something you know most about, necessarily what youre best at?
Over the years I have gotten myself into many favorable and unfavorable situations. I
had dealt with many types of personalitys, but always finding my own to be the most
difficult and enigmatic. I had other people answers and could tell them off the top of my
head. But when I was having a hard day it felt like no one even had a clue, I could use a
clue! This grew to my second question, Do people just not care, or do people just
not know?
Managing conflict is all about being able to detect root causes. Those veins that
sprawl over the flesh of an idea and give it life, and still circulate, weather injected with
venom or not. Venom are mistakes that are not caught fast enough, and if dwindle in the
body of your project for too long, will weaken its immune system, and attack an organ/
function of the group that is weakest.Which led me to my fifth question, Why do
people sometimes watch an error occur without fixing it, and just let it
evolve and backfire at them, because they let it happen in the first place?
Managing conflict is about intellect as it is about speed, and building a solid image
without leaving out with is wrong, in order to be able to deal with it, and explain it toothers. Mistakes are our greatest teachers. But wanting to understand them our our purest
voices asking for help, and assistance. Which leads me to my third question, Why are
people so resilient to speak up sometimes?
That is what fascinated me most. That every part of a conflict is so interconnected.
Its a chain reaction of events, and what most people dont realize is the affect that one
positive person, fused with a new batch of fresh energy, can change the everyone elses
sets of motivation in a group to start moving towards the same goal again, with the
energy infused in the natural process of creation of a new idea! Which lead me to my
fourth and final question, Who are these miracle people that bestow suchpositivity upon us in the most chaotic moments, and where does this sense
of importance, and determination arise, when you know you can take the
situation by the reins, without knowing anything at all?
My experience in Managing Conflict will be complete if I can answer these
five questions.

UP-CLOSEWhat you might not know about me is that I was a
rhythmic gymnast for 10 years of my life, before retiring
in 2009 to focus on my education. Even though
gymnastics is beautiful and elegant in its own ways, it
does not lack the drama, the politics and the hidden
agendas of any other sport. Actually the all female aspectquite intensifies it.
I competed for the National Team of Canada for
many years. This took from the glamorousness of Los
Angeles, to mystic cities like Cairo, and empirical resort
towns like Malaga in the south of Spain. Apart from all
the elements, combinations and throws we learn in
gymnastics, the most I took out of this sport was
watching how people deal with other people, and how
people deal with themselves.
You cannot come up to a person, without
remembering the experiences you have shared and the
conversation you have had. In a way, you start off, right
where you left of, were the words spoken by my high
school Literature Teacher Dr. Ributans (Doc).

&In gymnastics youre always surrounded by a collage of
gymnasts for all different levels and walks of life, their parent
coaches, apprentices, judges, fans, teams and preferences. Everyb
has a strong opinion of others, and therefore adapt a strong opin
of themselves. This isnt bad. Because it actually builds confidenc
a young age, and teaches you how to protect what is yours, and fi
for your place on the podium and later in life.
Its been three years since I left that life, and in this while, f
tracked through high school, and am now in one of the best busi
school in the world, that has offered me a unique opportunity experience a part of me that I left behind undiscovered in
gymnastics. The coaching part! For my PCDP I decided to go b
to the gym, with the gracious help and enthusiasm of my form
coach Svetlana Joukova, and take a hit at coaching, and discover
other half of the sport I never had a chance to uncover.
This experience is recorded in thorough detail, and I hope y
have as much reading it, as I enjoyed living it!

Heading Back To TheGym....Where you belong!
Is how my former coach
Svetlana Joukova likes to
put it.
I have trained with Svetlana for
a good portion of my life, but most
importantly those years that are the
first time you become self aware of
yourself. She took me at the ripe age
of ten into her sports club. It was a
completely new experience for me,
because for once in my life, I was
surrounded by so many other girls,
just like me or a year older. All very
talented, hard working, and feisty!
She trained me to become the
best! After only a year with her, I
beat all the girls a year older than me
in the same category, and made it on
the National Team of Canada; the
Top 8 Position!
After this we began traveling the
world. We went to L.A to twice where
I came back a gold medalist, againstgirls from Australia, Belarus, Czech
Republic and everyone in the mix.
Watching all of these girls on the
competition carpet and behind made
me realize that every single gymnast
has a different and unique
relationship with her coaches. All
coaches have their own mentality and
approach to their profession. Some
coaches dont mind yelling at you in
front of all of your friends andstrangers after a bad routine behind
the curtains, while others dont mind
casually asking about your love life,
while doing their nails and sitting on
your back leg, when your sitting in
mid air, squirming and stretching
between two chairs. Its during
competitions like these that I
realized how unique each
situation is, and even more
impressive that each gymnast has
designed an approach that works
for her to deal with it.
The stress gets overwhelming. We
are left to decide on our own
weather to protect ourselves, or le
ourselves slowly feel the pain of
failure and someone else voice or
opinion of us subtracting from ou
self esteem.
Thats why you need a coach whoknows you. Who understand you,
and who is willing to love you
enough and make you suffer
enough for you to understand this
lesson. Suffering is not what you see
in movies, with someone wincing in
pain and bleeding out. Many times
suffering is severe contemplation over
what to do with yourself, based on a
bad feeling you get of how someone
treated you, and how to fix in a slyway, in order to get the respect back
you know you deserve!
Its not a simple game. But I wen
back to the gym to learn how to play

Step One:Building Trust &Partnership
When first approaching my coach
about this project I have to admit she
was a little scared but so was I. I didnot know weather I had the ability to
motivate a whole new group of girls,
and accomplish the exercises
successfully that I have imagined
with them. My coach had to leave
for the Pan American
Championships the next day with
her group who qualified for the
Olympics next year. Everyone had a
two week break at the gym, so she
told me to develop the idea, and she
would have time to think about her
answer.
When she got back she was
invested with a whole new energy
and enthusiasm for my project, and
was actually the one who motivated
me to come to the gym and work
with the girls for a bit on my own.
She assured me that if I needed any
help or had any questions I could
always come to her, and should
never feel like I was bothering her.
And of course that she would always
be watching over me. She had my
trust from the very beginning, but I
knew I would slowly have to earn
hers.
One thing we both agreed on is
that I needed to speak to the parents
of the girls to let them know exactly
what I was up to. The first step to
effective coaching is.....Building trust, rapport and
partnership. I not only needed to
ask their permission to work with
their kids one day out of the week
before the competition season when
every day counts! But to also film
them as a video component, which is
something the kids were more
excited about.
I of course also notified the girls
and sent them some examples of
things I wanted to accomplish over
the course of my trainings with
them.
What I learned is that building
trust within all levels of the club isextremely important, and if done
correctly, can bring an overwhelming
wave of enthusiasm from both sides,
resulting in a progressive state of
being.
APPLIED
One of the first exercises I did
with some of the younger girls was
called The Circle of Life. And
because gymnastics is their life, they
were really excited. The objective of
this welcoming activity was for
everyone to feel a sense of
interconnectedness amongst each
other and realize that gymnastics is
more than a sport, that the amount
of time they spend together, is not
just time, it builds the future
interactions between them and
others. Realizing why they lovegymnastics so much is the first step!
We all sat in something called a
gymnastics circle, meaning in Middle
Spilt with our toes are connected to
another others, introduced ourselves,
and said one thing we love most
about the sport. The activity went
exceptionally well, and I was glad to
see the girls nervousness about me
dissipate a little after the first day.
Step Two:Identify & Explore KeyIssues
Determine areas of focuswith an open and thoroughdialogue of the individual'sissues. Your role is to promptdiscussion, probe for
understanding, and facilitateidentification of coachingpriorities. --Prof. Jean Adams
One of the hardest lessons I had
to learn in the following weeks ishow not to instruct with showing
what I am doing always. Lets face it.
I cant do half the things these kids
are doing anymore! But to help to
instruct them with words. It takes
any student time to get used to their
new coaches approach to teaching,
but surprisingly the girls picked my
techniques up very quickly and our
weeks followed with an open
relationship.
APPLIED
One problem I felt in the gym
that I need to address was the
attention of time each girl was given
not to only practices her whole
routine but more importantly the
individual elements that constitute it.
When I approached my coach about
this, she handed over theresponsibility to me, and we started
spending half an hour before going
through their routines with music,
focusing solely on individual
elements that were challenging to
them. When introduced muscle
awareness to their body when
working with different elements, they
really got it! At the end of the day
my coach looked at me, and I knew I
had successfully completed my
unexpected good deed of the day!

SIX STEPS TO COACHIN...EFFECTIVE

CONTD
Step Two:
Identify & Explore Key IssuesSomething else that I found not so odd about
the girls was that gymnastics was their main
form of expression. But at the same time, their
least discovered one. When I asked many girls
what they thought of it, they didnt really know
how to put it into words, they just kinda did it.
I was the same way once, but it helped me
the first time I realized who I am, and how thissport models me after itself. They were a little
confused. That information took a lot of time to
process but after a few weeks it appeared in the
form of a greater sense of self that I felt growing
within them in the way the spoke, and walked
and acted. They werent just there. They were
there!
There was one particular girl Maria, whowas an interesting case for me, because she
wasnt doing the best, even though she had the
most talent for the sport out of any other girl.
But she lacked the inner motivation that helped
her shine. I asked her what was wrong, and she
told me there was a particular element that hurts
her hip, and messes her up in the middle of
every routine. Aha! I thought, that is a root
cause!
I asked her why she hadnt spoken to
Svetlana and told someone about her
discomfort. She just shrugged, and couldnt
understand where I was coming from. I let her
know that there are over 200 elements in
gymnastics. Just because one doesnt work out,
doesnt mean every single day has to go to hell,
and you have to put physical and emotional
stress on your foot.
Next I asked her how much the element was
worth. in gymnastics it can be anywhere from
0.1 to 1.2 points. Then I went into the books and
figured out another element that she could
substitute in her level that actually looked moreattractive then the one she was doing now.
During her routine, when the element did not
work for the third time, I told Svetlana who was
sitting beside me that maybe it was just not her
element. There were 2 options for her to change
it to. I didnt want it to seem like it was my
suggestion. So we let Maria do Svetlanas option
and then my option. For some reason, she nailed
mine on the first try, she loved it, we kept it, andsubstituted it into every composition of hers.
Now the girl is prancing like a gazelle
throughout her routine without worrying about
the anticipation of doing something that causes
her discomfort, when it can easily be substituted
for something for something makes her look
beautiful.

Step Three:Establish Specific Goals &Clear Contract
After the accomplishment with
Maria, Svetlana and I noticed a
radical change in her
performance, and in her level ofenergy through out training.
Nobody is going to be happy to
work through pain, but why didnt
she speak up? I later told Svetlana
privately that her hip had been
hurting. And all she could say was
Why didnt she tell? I told her I
dont know. But imagine if
everyone was hiding something assimple and as re-do-able as that!
Svetlana told me that she is in the
position of authority, and maybe
some of the younger girls have not
caught up to the humor in her
necessary force of words and will
sometimes. She asked me to keep
an eye on them, and work with
them individually where I could.
Lets face it...one person cannot
run the whole circus!
APPLIED
I was thinking about Maria on
my way to Schulich one day, with
a camera in my purse I decided to
interview some of my fellow
Schulichers about their
experience being a coach, or theirexperience being coached.
The greatest underlying cause
of grief I found from previous
experiences in their lives when
being coached was discrimination,
and not being heard. Either
because of their skin color, their
body type, or their natural lack of
talent.
I found the biggest problem
students found with coaches- and I
can say the same for teachers- is
when they apply one technique to
all students. When they dont
realize that each student is a
unique challenge, and there are
many ways to solve a problem orwork around difficult barriers of
rules that cannot be specifically
lifted for the student.
Try to kill two birds with onestone by identifying activitiesthat achieve more than one
goal.- PJA
Another idea that came to meafter elaborating on my
experience with Maria is that
every gymnast has a Signature
Move! This is an obsession in
gymnastics because we all want to
leave unforgotten when we walk
away from the sport forever. Most
of the best ideas are brewed
hidden in the Russian Rhythmic
Gymnastics Olympic Cen
Novogorsk in the Subur
Moscow, where the Oly
Champions train. But no m
where which country you go
the world, every country
gymnast even has their own
I brought my Mac wit
one day to gymnastics and sh
the girls a video of the most r
World Championshdemonstrate my point o
necessity of self-expression.
I asked the girls who is
favorite gymnast and why
what is their favorite gym
signature move that make
unique. I realized this made
think a little bit ahe
themselves. Not about the pr
moment, but what they
make become
So next I asked them if th

Step Three:Establish Specific Goals& Clear Contract
Once they chose one cool
move that they liked most, I told
them that the first step to gettingwhat you want, is knowing what
you want. Each girl was to write
down one realistic element that
they could incorporate into their
routines, and practice it only 50
times a day. Knowing they had
that limit provided I promised
Ide ask Svetlana to leave us
another 15 during training, togather all the girls, and work on
just that one element. They
made that decision and made it
their first realistic goal!
Point the individual in theright direction by
collaboratively identifying thetarget at which to aim. Define
clear, concrete, achievablegoals with realistic time
frames and strike a contractthat will ensure success.- PJA
Then I asked the girls to
think about one element that
that they love the most in
gymnastics. Surprisingly most
where jumps and rotatingbalances. I was impressed. And
asked if I get them on camera
for that. These girls already had
a pretty good idea of which
element suits them, in the sport
that defines them.
By the third week the girlsare already comfortable aroundme and we have establishspecific goals, and have alreadyaccomplished some amazingthings along the way. I havelearned that coaching with anopen mind everyday is morethan I could ever learn from atextbook. And this is only thebeginning!
Step Four:Develop Coaching Plan
The training process beforecompetition season is gruesome
and stressful. The kidsexperience lots of ups anddowns in physical strength, andhighs and lows in emotionallevels.....But So Do Coaches!
A skill is best acquired byactually performing the skilland receiving feedback onperformance.- PJA
A gymnastics coach is notjust someone who sits there andpresses play and pause on thesound player. A gymnasticscoach is someone who needs getup on her feet, pick up theapparatus and show how toreadjust the gymnasts routinewhenever she sees it fit, and thiscan be almost everyday. This
puts an enormous stress on thegymnast to always be at the topof her game, but also on thecoach to push the gymnast toher highest potential andultimate success.We dont have deadlines ingymnastics. Gymnastics is anextension of elegance with adrop of sports venom. It is a
drive. Its speed. Its complexWhen our only job is to make
look simple. The girls who dothe best are actually the oneswho are not afraid to bend thrules to their advantage. To
speak up. To put their best foforward. And never let anyondoubt their ability to succeedand be the best. These girlsknow who they are, and theyknow they expect only the beof themselves. Nothing less.
This was my coaching plan frthe very beginning. To develo
this mentality in the young giTo make them more self awaof themselves, and what theyfighting for in this life. I feel ithe most important thing I toout of gymnastics, and when
Be kind to your behind....tyour past- Anastassia
got the chance, I came back t
time to the gym, to introducethis concept to them.
I never gave them speeches. Inever gave them orders. I nevtold them how to think, or whto do. I told them stories, thathelped them reflect on their olives. I find this to be the mosun- intrusive and universal fo
of education. When theindividual curiosity is sparkedand that fire that is born insidthem, takes the time to cook new ideas in their minds, thawill forever grow into more amore complex entities of theimagination and one daybecome a product of real life

Step Four:Develop Coaching Plan
AppliedEach day I was there I had enhance
the student-teacher experience on the
spot. Most of the time it was a complete
inspiration, insight, or necessity of the
moment. I remember the girls coming in
to the gym one by one on a gloomy rainy
day, a sitting on the carpet in front of me,
and looking like the last thing they
wanted to do, was start warm-up.
I remember everyone at school was
on edge that day to. There was just some
negativity in the air, that made everyone
wanna get under the covers and just sleep
through it. But I had been reading, The
Art of Power by my favorite Vietnamese
Buddhist and Zen master, poet, scholar
and peace activist, Thich Nhat Hanh,
and I realized we dont have to put up
with this individual suffering instead we
convert the overwhelming negative
energy that was eating us up, into a wave
of overwhelming positive and happy
energy that will bond us together, and get
us through the day.
One exercise Ive actually had in
mind, but could never find the excuse to
use ....was a contagious laughing circle! I
had seen this on television how this new
phenomena is sweeping across the nation
called Laughter Yoga in Churches, where
people just get together and laugh. I have
also read about many accounts of peoples
bodys healing them of their cancer after
two months of watching something comic
that makes them laugh and brings them
joy, every day for only two hours!
So I thought to myself What a
perfect opportunity I have been given
with this difficult day to cultivate
positivity and conjure laughter even from
the deepest frown.
How did I do this? Of course, I
started with the worst joke I could think
of off the top of my head! At first I got
only three meek smiles. The rest were still
staring into the far off distance, in the
space of their
thoughts, or picking lint of their toes.
The second joke was so bad, that I
actually grabbed the attention of the lintpickers! The third joke was a blond joke,
and I finally got the attention of the space
travelers and all the laughter from the
brunettes at the one blonde Teija, who
was just zapped back into reality, and
blushed from embarrassment, not sure
where all the attention was coming for.
I could feel the mood was picking up,
and at the moment the final girl steppedinto the gym and briskly ran to an empty
spot on the carpet. She was already
looking at us curiously with a smile, thats
how I knew the energy in the room had
already changed from a negative to a
positive with me just making three bad
jokes that conjured laughter in three
sullen souls! But that was not enough. I
knew we needed a lot more to last a 3
hour training, so I ordered everyone to liedown, relax, and think of The Ultimate
Most Funniest Moment Of Their Lives!
Not five silence second went by before
Teija burst out laughing, then Michelle
followed for no apparent reason. Rolling
on their sides, with tears running down
their cheeks possessed by the nature of
contagious enigmatic LAUGHTER!

Step Five:Verify Progress & Adjust IfNecessary
This phase is time is all about the
acknowledgment of success and
celebration of accomplishments!
I can tell you that there is a sense of
emptiness in your days, after you
completely leave the sport, when you feel
that you arent making any progress, and
that youre life is going nowhere. Sound
familiar? Let me elaborate on that.
In gymnastics we have routines. These
routines are made of elements such as
pirouettes, balances, jumps, throws, dancecombinations, and speed. We need speed
because we only have a minute thirty to
complete each routine, and complete the
required combinations of elements packed
into them. A gymnast can be practicing
one apparatus either (hoop, rope, ribbon,
ball or clubs, but one at a time) for hours
on end. But only get to go through a
routine with music 5 to 10 times depending
on how many girls in the gym.
Now prepare yourself for this
realization. Every time you catch a throw,
or nail a turn, or throw the hoop in the
first jump, do another jump underneath a
flying object and catch in the third jump,
you feel an amazing sense of gratification
and pride! You are doing good! But you
dont consciously EVER tell yourself that!
You just know because youve done it.
Image this feeling of accomplishment
coming with every step you take. In other
words, every step taken correctly, received
every day. Truly a gift to the mind, the
body and soul.
You dont get that sort of test of self an
immediate feedback in life. That is why
many athletes fall into depression after
leaving the sport that defined them for so
many years, that they dont know h
function without it.
It is no pretty story, and an inev
fact that one must face in life, after
completion of an old cycle and the
uncertainty of the beginning of a n

n the other side of the fence and I like it. What I didnt know at the beginning
my journey was that my weakness, coaching...was to become my strength!
ooking back at the journey, I think the most important thing that worked iny favor was that I was not sitting in front of them on my chair telling them
hat to do, but I was constantly moving within their eye reference. I could
tter here their whispers and their concerns, what worked for them, and what
dnt but they were hiding. This is something that the head coach cannot
ways do, because her line of work is a little bit different.
vetlana was very thankful to to me coming in and making minor adjustments

at element out, the girls still have 15 minutes a day to focus on practicing a
new element 50 times a day. A for the half an hour of
muscle training, unfortunately the competition season iscoming up and they have to focus on their routines, but they
have taken away so much from the sessions that we did have
a chance to have, that both me and Svetlana and our ballet
instructor Olga, have noticed a drastic change in the girls
technique to the better. They have become much stronger,
self aware and in the process more confidant and beautiful
rhythmic gymnasts. I expected nothing less of them. And
need not ask for nothing more!

Step One:Understand the sourcesof conflict
In order to manage conflicteffectively you have tounderstand the root causes.Otherwise, you'll spend a lotof time and energy dealingwith superficial symptomsand will never findsatisfactory solutions. It'simportant to stay in inquirymode when conflict is
present and avoid jumpingto quick conclusions. Themost common conflictstypically arise because ofthe personalities andmotivations of the peopleinvolved, because ofdifficulties stemming fromthe broader organizationalor group context, or because
of mis-communication.-Prof. Adams
What I have learned from thereading and from myexperience coaching alladolescent and adult gymnastsis that all conflicts arise from
root causes. And usually thefirst time you hear someonespeak up about something theyare unhappy about, it is notabout they thing they arespeaking of necessarily, butsomething that happenedbefore hand, that has broughtout this confusion in thepresent.
Example
For example, Megan did not
want to tell me right away whythat element wasnt working,even though we could both seeit. It was only when she toldme her hip was hurting that weknew the root cause of thesituation was pain, not aninability to learn.
Step Two:Learn to Distinguish
Between Constructive
and Destructive Conflict
Conflictcanalsoprovideapowerfulsourceofinnovation,growthanddevelopment-thetensionandcreativeenergythatdriveseffectivechange.-PJA
We see many times on realityTV how conflict is created forthe purpose of keeping peopleon the edge of their seats anentertained. Humans by naturedont like to leave actions or apiece of knowledge unresolved.Well from my MGMTreadings, I have also learnedthat in the real world, manymanagers will play all sorts ofmind games, sometimes evengoing to extremes of creating astressful work environment likeby purposely giving 2 teamsthat are competing with oneother two sets of differentinformation and have them

SIX STEPS TO MANAGING CONFLICTEFFECTIVELY...
7/31/2019 PCDP Schulich Anastasia Yurivna
18/26
18
Step 3 & 4:Think About YourSituation & The Stance To
Apply
Ken Thomas suggests there
are several way of dealing with
conflict. Everyone has theirown almost habit to the way
they react to a certain tone,
face or situation. But he thinks
the key difference in approach
depend on a) How far are you
willing to go to impose your
view on someone, in other
words your level of
assertiveness, and b) Yourwillingness to recognize the
value of cooperation and
having everyones mind set
working towards a common
goal.
Ken Thomas also points
out that there are 5 main ways
people deal with conflict based
on the personalitys and
stances in life they are most
comfortable taking.
Competing: Is a stance
popular in Win-Lose
mentalitys that doesnt always
turn out well, when taken outof the context of sport, and
also pursued to the extreme.
People who believe life is a win
die competition tend to be
very hard on themselves and
very aggressive towards other,
becoming an unwanted
member in any work
environment, especially one
where you need to work
together. But on the other
hand, competition can be a
healthy tension if monitored
and not taken to the extreme,
that can provide an evident
way to prove yourself to your
boss.
Accommodating: Is a
stance popular in people that
feel harmony is above all elseimportant to preserve in the
organization even if it leads to
the absence of the necessary
creative tension needed to
progress development and
innovative approaches ado
that could lead the compa
a completely new and exci
direction. These people lik
sit back, and watch the
situation unfold before the
eyes, but dont like to get thhands dirty and this conclu
to them ultimately taken
advantage of more assertiv
individuals, who do! But o
the other hand, people wh
take the accommodating
approach can also be grea
listeners, and hear above t
bickering voice of a work falling apart, and when the
time is right, they can step
and save the day!
Avoiding: Is a stance pe
take when they just cannot
deal with a situation at the
moment, and decide its be
to let the drama created, a
creating it be cooled down
before the situation can be
reevaluated. But in extrem
cases these people try to av
avoid the conflict, hoping i
will go away or their name
was attached to the projec
peal away with time. Thisstance one takes, is the one
that doesnt realizes the
greatest mistakes made are
greatest lessons learned. So
alright to let a situation co
and let time distance peop
emotionally from the failur
but it is unhealthy for anyo

Compromising: Is a stance
taken by people who are
always negotiating for thebigger piece of pie, sometimes
no matter the consequence.
They are not going to push
boundaries or challenge
opinions. But try to minimize
the pain and effort needed to
spring forwards creative
tension in order to challenge
the best, and eventually
become the best. These people
avoid drama at all costs, and
have their own interest at
mind. As long as everyone
splits even in an office of Pro
Compromise everyone is
Okay but never the Best!
Collaborating:When you
hear the word collaborate
coming from the words of
someone who has just offered
you to work with them, you
know youre going to be
working with a passionateperson! When someone asks to
collaborate with you, they askyou to put everything on thetable. All your ideas arewanted, and will bechallenged. All your naturaltalents and resources will finda place, time and project to beprojected onto a broaderpicture of a better world.

it is one of the most enrichingexperiences a person can begranted in this life. Feeling apart of something greater thenthemselves. Something thathas the potential to changelives and fuel desire for life,through the hard work andcollaborative efforts ofassertive individuals.

I would say I am all thesepeople on any given day. But

realize that I cant be both

Step 5:The Pros and Cons
The way you manage
conflict can have a major
impact on the quality of
interpersonal relations and
the overall culture of your
team and organization.
Hence, in addition toresolving the substantial
issues of concern, it's
important to think about the
short and long-term
implications of your
actions.- Prof.Jean Adams
Conflict has the potential to
building up a relationship withfull on force through creative
progress, just as much as it has
the ability to diminish it to
ashes! Gone With The Wind!
Direction:There are times when a
person with a strong assertive
approach in communication
practices is needed. This time
when a project needs to come
to a conclusion but no one can
decide on the final go or stay
where we are, this is when the
direct person steps in, and
provides everyone with a
succinct and persuasive account
of what needs to happen, for
the project not to take the
wrong turn in the near future.
Here its thinking about long
terms goals, and building strong
relationships with people that
can sustain that!
Balance:
Believe it or not companys
can suffer from too much
agreement, just as much as they
can suffer from too much
conflict. A company is never
allowed to get comfortable it iswants to succeed in this fast
paced and innovative world.
The best way to ensure this
balance is to reward people
who are stepping up to the
plate, and are not afraid to
speak up and change things
around. These individuals must
be put in front of companys as
role models, letting other
employees know such behavior
is not strictly forbidden by
actually encouraged. The
biggest source of conflict
actually arises from not
knowing. So the best way, is to
educate and show by example.
Awareness:
Stay informed! The third
criteria is to realize that some
cases have been buried and and
dug back out so many times,that you might not be the
luckiest one who gets it the
tenth time around. This may b
a legal dispute that has a deep
political dimension that is very
difficult and unclear to see
through and be able to handle.
It such cases. Keep protecting
yourself and be smart. If youdont want to deal with it, and
dont think its worth it. Youre
probably right! But even if you
get that slightest spark of
interest, or recognition of a
possible success in something
that has failed to be completed
or resolved so many
times...maybe its always just
been approached the wrong
way, and this could
unexpectedly turn into the
biggest break of your career!

So what do I really do? I am a gymnast who dropped out to
pursue her studies. But all that creativity I was generating non stop
from 10 years of my life, suddenly became logged up. The massive
outlet had disappeared. I was unplugged. I lost myself.
I didnt understand how much gymnastics had influenced me
until I began looking for different forms of expression again. The
obvious one was dance. I found myself a nice dance studio in
Downtown and continued taking ballet classes. But that wasnt
enough. I went to the gym, that wasnt enough. I started playing thepiano, that also wasnt enough. I read a lot, shopped a lot, partied a
lot, studied different languages a lot, traveled a lot, listened to music
a lot....but nothing was enough!

In terms of stances in life,
Its not about choosing one, or
combing one for me. Life is
about giving life a chance when
it is knocking on your door of
opportunity. Welcome it with a
smile, and be kind, but be
weary. Listen intently and take
note of what is really being
said, and how you are treated
from the very beginning. Nevergive someone the luxury of
having the thought of
disrespecting you, and finding a
way around your rule. Make
yourself clear, and well heard.
Everyone takes confidence as a
sign of knowledge and
strength. Own it. And dont letanyone take from you, what is
rightfully yours. Neither youre
ideas, nor your position. Be
passionate and eccentric. Make
changes when they are needed,
and know what already works
well.

Is something that you
havent yet explored but alwaysbeen curious about necessarily
your weakness?
Absolutely not! You might
start being not the best at it.
But those are the most exciting
moments, when youre
searching though all of yourself
to figure it out.
Is a nice coach the bestcoach?
Haha The truth? No not
always. You find a balance.
Is there a boundary of
professionalism that a coach
neednt cross when dealing with
students or is it normal and
even human to feel and try to
give as much knowledge and
understanding to someone
regarding all aspect of theirlife?
I find the easiest
information to absorb is in the
form of a story. The kids are all
ears when youre talking about
your own mistakes. Because to
them you become more human
and they are able to relate to
you on a new level.
Do we learn better when
we are able to relate with
somebody who is not afraid to
share themselves with us,
inspiring us with their
confidence and love for their
work, instead of somebody who
just tries to teach us by the
book?
Yes, a teacher who tak
inspiration from her ownand is not afraid to
communicate based on f
misjudgment with earn t
respect of her students.
How does the coach
the student reach that
equilibrium of respect t
motivates both partys to
continue working toward
same objective in heart, and soul?
You reach that equilib
by knowing you want to
it. If thats your intentio
will see it and feel it from
within. That there is a p
interaction of energy an
communication that lead
exponential progress.
