How to Coach Yourself and Others Popular Models for Coaching | Seite 205
C: My next question may seem a little strange. It takes some
imagination to answer it. Suppose that
you go home after our meeting, that you go to bed tonight, and
that, while you are sleeping, a miracle happens. And the miracle
is, that the reason why you came here is solved – just like that!
But since you are asleep you will have no idea that the miracle is
taking place. How will you begin to discover tomorrow morning
that a miracle has happened and that you have reached all your
goals as a coach?
C: And how will your coachee know that the miracle has
happened?
C: How will you know that your coachee knows?
C: And what would you do then?
Second stage: Signs that the goal is being reached
C: Looking back over the last few days, when was there a
coaching situation in which you already felt a
little bit the way that you will feel on the morning after the
miracle?
C: How did you do that?
C: How did you know which questions you should ask ?
C: What would you say you did to make things fall into place for
her?
C: OK, great. Now, on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the moment you
realized that you had certain qualities as a coach, and 10 being
the morning after the miracle. Where would you place your
current coaching qualities on this scale?
C: OK, so what makes it a XX already?
C: Great. Now back to the conversation that took place last
Thursday. Where would you place your coaching on the scale?
C: And how will you realize that you have taken a step forward
and that you have reached X on the scale?
C: On a scale of 1 to 10, how confident are you that you will be
successful tomorrow?
