Coaching and Mentoring

• Coaching is the in-depth development of specific knowledge, skills and strategies.

• Coaching does not depend on the coach having more experience than the coachee; it can take place between peers and staff at different levels of status and experience.

• Coaching is usually informed by evidence.

Mentoring tends to focus upon the individual’s professional role, often as they move into new roles and take new responsibilities.

A mentor is usually a more experienced person; someone very familiar with a particular challenge, who has influence and can use their experience to help an individual analyse their situation in order to facilitate personal development.

Dispositions of a Coach

• Communicator • Confidential • Non-critical • Non-judgemental• Options provoker • Committed

after Fiona Harrold

Clean Listening Skills

• Shared experiences• Shared ideas and beliefs• Sensory words

1. Share a limiting belief

2. Where does it fit on the map?

3. At the level below identify the strengths that can alter the impact of that belief

Environment – place, context

Behaviour – what you do

Skills and Capabilities – using them

Beliefs and Values - filters

Identity - motivations

Vision - future

After DiltsLogical Levels


Essential Skills

• Identify and develop clean listening skills• Asking the right questions• Getting unstuck• Clarifying next steps

Clean Listening (…and the 4 min coach)

• Question – open/curious vs closed/leading• Reflect – keeping self out and staying on topic• Clarify – check accuracy :

“so you’re saying..”• Allow thinking time - Hold your silence, know

they have the resources

“The 4 minute coach”© 1. Ask your coachee to clarify their challenge for you and to scale its

significance (1= don’t care -10 =it’s serious!)

2. Ask the key questions.

3. After 4 mins - “So what are your first next steps?” For each key question write down their response.

4. Coachee scales their confidence in steps working. (1=no chance 10=total confidence…. and then ask +1?)

5. Then rescale the significance of the problem.

6. Make feedback arrangements. SMS/email.)


Strategies that Work

• Practice the process • Review your technique• Challenge limiting beliefs
