Lifting The Lid - Episode 129 - Platform...

Clare Norman & Steve Ridgley
About this episode
In this episode, Clare and Steve are joined by Ginny Baillie who has much to say about associate work whether that is via a coaching platform or through an associate coaching company. 

We talk about the need for thinkers to have awareness, willingness and responsibility for the coaching to make an impact, and how current models of associate work may not be setting thinkers up for success against these criteria. 

Relationship building is top of Ginny’s top tips for associate work. 

She mentions two useful books: 

The Prosperous Coach https://amzn.eu/d/070wFzOs

and

The Journey of a Prosperous Coach https://amzn.eu/d/06r7fxFq
