Lifting The Lid - Episode 117 - Changing...

Clare Norman & Steve Ridgley
About this episode
In today’s episode, Steve and Clare talk about the confusion that can happen – for both coach and thinker – when the coach changes hats. That might be moving from:
  • consultant or mentor to coach and back
  • leadership trainer to coach and back
  • employee to coach and back
  • psychometrics feedback giver to coach and back
We talk about how to make that clean such that the thinker knows which role you are playing – and so that you avoid a repositioning of power in this relationship of supposed equals.

We also talk about the hats that supervisors might sometimes be invited to wear by supervisees – and which of those hats we hand back as soon as we can!

What does Mr Benn have to do with it? If you grew up, like us, in the seventies in the UK, you will remember him going into the changing rooms and coming out wearing different outfits – not just different hats - then going off on an adventure based on that outfit. We found it funny anyway!
