THE ART OF WAITING FOR IT
When it comes to coaching which is a process that incredibly accelerates adult learning and development, the paradox is that you have to go slow enough so that you can really go fast.
Patience and Meta-Coaching
When it comes to coaching which is a process that incredibly accelerates adult learning and development, the paradox is that you have to go slow enough so that you can really go fast. Several people have noticed that about the way I get a KPI and have mentioned that to me. They have said things like: “You seem to be going to slow and methodologically inquiring about various details, and then all of a sudden, seemingly out of nowhere, you lock down the KPI; I don’t understand how that works.” “I was surprised when you got the KPI, it was like the client just gave it to you, but I can’t figure out how you got her to just give it to you like that.” “I’ve been modeling how you get the KPI so consistently and so quickly, and what’s really interesting to me is how often you intentionally slow things down, you sometimes even tell the client to slow down.”
