HOW’S YOUR CONFRONTATION SKILLS AS A COACH?

In Meta-Coaching we have identify that there are six kinds of conversations that you, as a Coach, can have with a client. One of those is the Confrontation conversation. Ah, confrontation. And why would you do that? And if you have a big reason for doing that, how would you do that? What skills are involved? What processes?

The reason why is that sometimes a client shows up in your office (or you in his or hers) and the client seems to be blinded to his or her current reality. The client is suffering from the blindness created by his or her blind-spots. Ah, blind spots— areas of one’s actions, words, and responses that the client cannot see. Blind spots are often created by our driving meta-programs. The very meta-program (global / specific; matching / mismatching; internal / external authority sort, etc.) which are our best strengths and gives us our outstanding talents is at the same time the very place where we are blind, and even blind to that blindness.
