Conducting Coaching Sessions: The GROW Model
Introduction
The purpose of this session is to work with the coachee to assist him in over-coming his pessimistic tendencies so that he can focus more on achieving is performance goal. In this session we will address the G and R components of the GROW model. The pre-coaching plan will address the goals of the session, the skills to be used, the method taken to conduct the session, and the questions I will ask. The paper will report the facts of the session and illustrate success and challenging areas. I will highlight the lessons I learned as well as areas where improvement is needed. This project will provide coaching to a coachee in the efforts of correcting a behavior trait. Through my guidance …show more content…

The coachee seemed a bit distracted, rambling on topics not associated with the session. However, as the conversation progressed the coachee began to open up and expressed his concerns and aspirations. We were successful in determining the goal and agreed upon ways to achieve this goal, but just as in the first session, the coachee’s’ pessimistic personality began to show. I had to over come my own negative thinking and focus on his words and behaviors and not his pessimistic character (Hills, 2015). It was a challenge for me to utilize that human skill that Daft spoke about, and try to remain empathetic. According to Hills (2015), being “compassionate will help you to keep the employee’s negativity from affecting you” (Hills, 2015, pg. 157). I tried focusing on that and it seemed to work.
As mentioned in the first session, time constraints and time differences, was also a challenge. The coachee, due to his long work hours, had to cancel and reschedule the session three times. This was becoming frustrating for me, but I had to understand that his professional job was of greater importance. I had to be accommodating, supportive, and understand that these reschedules were not …show more content…

Understanding the differences will ease any unforeseen tension. I realize that I must continue to build upon those lessons learned from the first coaching session, and rely on my personality traits and not get frustrated. Have patience and give it time. I need to take responsibility for my own behaviors, stay committed and stay connected. I should never allow my personal feelings or thoughts to undermine the work and efforts that are needed for a successful outcome (Cowan, 2006). I must set good examples for my coachee to follow, and reinforce these examples with a positive attitude. Despite the challenges, this session taught me to look beyond the pessimistic character and focus more on helping the coachee attain his goal (Hills,

With speeches and books, Cohn has also developed “personal evaluation sheets” for players to fill out and work towards understanding their mental process after success and failure. Through the worksheets, it is commonly found that players who are more demanding on themselves after a failure tend not to be as excited when success happens. Giving the thought process of “expectation instead of success.” When a player is so wrapped up in failure, the thought process of what success looks like can diminish.

Author Tony Stoltzfus (2005) gives enlightenment on the importance of the coaching process. Stoltzfus (2005) asserts, “The power of coaching to change lives come from the belief, trust and support that flow through the transparent bond between coach and client” (p. 79). The seven elements of this coaching context and their characteristic flow are relationship-based, client-centered, goal-driven, listening, asking, acting and supporting (Stoltzfus, 2005). Consequently, each of these characteristics is essential for the Christian or secular coach.

As a coach, I believe that coaching is “unlocking a person’s potential to maximize their own performance. It is helping them to learn rather than teaching them” which was stated by John Whitman. I agree with this quote because as a coach I want to do what is best for each player individually. Therefore, I stress the importance of accountability, punctuality, discipline, but most importantly great sportsmanship. Every action or reaction of each person affects the entire team.

However, counselors tend to focus on one area more specifically in order to create change in all three areas (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). This learner’s personal perspective is inline with a more humanistic and constructivist approach in that the student is an expert on themselves and with a genuine therapeutic relationship change can occur (Henderson & Thompson, 2011). In addition, the process to change feelings and thoughts can occur when positive behavioral changes occur and small changes can lead to larger changes (Henderson & Thompson,

I have discovered by experience that preparation and anticipation (i.e., pre-performance routines, for example) have been the hallmark characteristics of my ability to maintain control of my thoughts. Using the handouts during the lesson would be one form of preparation. I would recommend the athletes complete the self-talk handouts which allows the athlete to create their own motivational and instructional self-talk words for the process, performance, and outcome phases plus a list of words to use to help them persevere during setbacks, mistakes, errors, or during the last few minutes of a competition, for example. Positive power talk is what I have called these words and teaching the athlete to start using these words when they anticipate having an emotional reaction during a heated moment would possibly divert the situation to the positive side early and negate the negative. In addition, the handouts have an area for the athlete to write their own self-talk script and words of affirmation plus list their favorite songs and images that could be used to facilitate positive and strength-based thoughts.
