Collaborate – Often, the best
way to reflect is with the help of
another individual—a mentor,
a coach, a therapist, or even a
colleague. Inspiration can come
from many places, and it helps
to have someone to bounce your
thoughts and ideas off of.
START TODAY: KEY TAKEAWAYS
I end all of my coaching sessions
with a simple question: “What is your
key takeaway from today’s session?”
Everyone on the senior leadership
team goes around the room and
provides an answer. Note that a
takeaway is not the same as a to-do
or action item. A takeaway is an item
from the session that stands out in
your mind as being most impactful.
It could be something someone said,
or an insight you had—it could be
anything. Everyone on the team gets
to hear from each other regarding
what stood out—which increases
alignment and engagement. Another
benefit of the Key Takeaway closing
exercise is anchoring. Adult learning
theory states that when you anchor
in a key learning from a meeting, you
also tend to have a higher recall of
other items discussed at the meeting
as well!
