Lifting The Lid - Episode 48 - The one where we ponder the direction of coaching

Clare and Steve ponder the direction of coaching. Is the market saturated with an over-supply of coaches? Has the pandemic added further to the increased supply and a reduction in demand? Are organisations shifting what they are looking for and who they target coaching at? When will technology arrive and change the way we work? How do changes in what society is focused on impact us as coaches - things like mental health and the environment? What opportunities might emerge from the systems we are a part of - everything from the planet and humanity, down to the coaching and supervisory systems we belong to?Just some of the questions we explore as we ponder on where the coaching market is moving and what that might mean for us.

Welcome to this monthly podcast in which Clare Norman and Steve Ridgley ‘lift the lid’ on coaching supervision.We are both experienced coaches and coach supervisors, passionate about the value that comes from supervision. We will share our experiences, knowledge, wisdom and insight as we set out in this podcast series to explore what supervision is, what it isn’t, what it’s like, how you might show up, what you might bring and how to get the most out of supervision.We will share stories on this journey. Sometimes our personal stories, both as a coach and as a supervisor, but also examples of what coaches have brought to some of our supervision sessions.It’s basically just Clare and Steve having a chat, swapping anecdotes and lifting the lid on key questions that might exist for coaches who are yet to explore supervision or who don’t feel they get value from being in supervision. Questions such as…How is supervision different to coaching?Group supervision, mentor coaching, 1-2-1, peer supervision - which do I choose?What should I take to supervision?Am I resourced enough to coach?Can I talk about my business with my supervisor?Am I in a rut as a coach?How do I move my client forward?Am I leading my client?Is the goal everything?… and much much more.Join us on our monthly exploration of coaching supervision as we set out to tell some truths and lift the lid on supervision.You can reach us directly at:Clare Norman - clare@clarenormancoachingassociates.comSteve Ridgley - steve@idcoach.co.ukIf you would like to know more, or for us to explore a specific topic, send us your question.This podcast is supported by:The Association of Coaching Supervisors https://www.associationofcoachingsupervisors.com/supervisors/searchand McGraw Hill Publishinghttps://www.mheducation.co.uk/mentor-coaching-a-practical-guide-9780335248797-emea-group
