Lifting The Lid - Episode 136 - Perspect...

Clare Norman & Steve Ridgley
About this episode
Clare and Steve explore how shifting our perspective can change how we show up and how we coach.  Maybe it's through whose eyes we are seeing the problem, maybe it's where we're looking from, when we're looking, how our energy and state influence our perspective, or maybe something else? 

Reviewing and reflecting on the dimensions of our perspective on a situation can be an invaluable reflection and lead to unexpected shifts in our work.  Maybe share your sense of your perspective on some aspect of your work next time you go to supervision?
