Manage episode 430370449 series 3469467
Join us on The Coaching Podcast with our guest coach, Adam Klein, as we unpack essential topics like the "Leader as Coach," the journey of living your vocation, and navigating resistance to unlock team cohesion and inspiration. Discover how integral coaching invites individuals to embrace their full selves—mind, body, and spirit—and how coaches can empower their team members to take responsibility, commit to each other, and work more efficiently together. We'll delve into the art of attunement and response in effective coaching. From practical tips on supporting shy or introverted clients to insights on the mind-body connection and strategies for handling resistance, this episode is packed with valuable knowledge for both new and experienced coaches.
Check out the highlights;

- 3.13: What can a coach do if their team members are bringing "all" of their problems to work? It is important to have the person consider:
