Lifting The Lid - Episode 85 - The one where Clare gets shirty about admin

If you have ever worked as a sole trader for corporates, you will likely have encountered the agony that Clare and Steve discuss in this episode. In particular, they talk about the processes and practices which corporates adopt to streamline their own business processes such as procurement or payment or contracts, but which make little sense – and take lots of time - for a sole trader or limited company with one director. Listen in to hear the trials and tribulations, the additional administrative headaches that seem to come with the territory. Clare and Steve don’t have all the solutions, but they do recognise that this energy drain could be something to bring to supervision, just like the myriad other energy drains that might occur in coaching or in business.

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.
