Episode notes
Lead With Questions, Not Lectures
- Avoid immediately telling; lead with inquiry to draw out the coachee's thinking and ownership.
- Transfer critical thinking so the individual owns the solution rather than passively receiving directions.
Behavior→Impact→Guidance Sequence
- The BIG model maps coaching into three causal steps: Behavior, Impact, Guidance.
- Following the sequence helps create awareness, connect consequences, and transfer ownership.
Make The Invisible Visible First
- Start with behavior to make the invisible visible and elevate self-awareness through inquiry.
- Ask what happened and how they handled it before suggesting fixes.
