One of the first things we do in a new coaching partnership is drop a location pin.

Where are you now? Where are you heading? How does that feel?

Many of us have been buffeted and knocked off course by events of the last few years. We’ve had to pivot and adapt (me too) and make the best of things.

Coaching creates space to take stock and update your maps.

We all make assumptions all the time.

The more you listen out for them, the more you hear.

We believe we have all the information we need to safely make a decision, draw a conclusion or make a judgement, and off we go.

It seldom ends well, whether the assumption is positive or negative.

The antidote? Curiosity.

Ask questions, listen to the answers. Then draw conclusions.
