5 Amplification
Asking coachee to amplify the state and to fully experience it in
breathing, walking, moving, gesturing, speaking, etc. Teasing and
testing to see how much of the state the coachee is experiencing.
Amplifying it and anchoring the state for further use.
4 Leading
Speaking in metaphors, stories, using indirect methods to induce the
state to layer multiple suggestions for the state. Asking coachee to
be with the emotions of the state and to manifest them more fully in
the body. Using a menu list of suggestive experiences that are likely
to elicit the state.
3 Going First and Pacing
Speaking with a voice and using words that suggest and invite the
desired state. Going into the state first and using it to invite the
coachee into it, expressing it in one's voice, gesture, face, breathing,
etc.
2 Some Matching and Mirroring
Asking about the state, suggesting it. Some matching and mirroring
to pace the person's current state and then mentioning the desired
state.
1 Facts without Pacing, Different state to Coachee
Mentioning state with a monotone, or with a tone of voice that does
not correspond to desired state. The coach not in the state, or in a
different state (i.e., impatient when wanting to evoke patience, tired
and fatigued when evoking motivation). Perhaps mentioning the
state and demanding the coachee experience it. "Don't feel afraid,
feel courage."
0 Ignoring State, Incongruence
No mention of one's state, let alone of the desired state, monotone
use of voice, no use of tone, tempo, or story that corresponds to the
state or outcome of the coachee.
