Wisdom From Our Coaches
At HumanQ, we have assembled a group of world-class Coaches with varying experience, expertise and viewpoints. If you are lucky enough to be coached by any of them, you get a good look at their knowledge and insights. If you haven’t had the pleasure of experiencing any of our Coaches, we want to give you a glimpse at some of their world-class thinking. Over the past few months, we’ve asked our Coaches a series of questions. Here are some of their insightful answers.
If you had a Magic Coach Wand and could help someone develop a new way of thinking overnight, what would it be?
Under no circumstances should you ever give away the freedom you always have.
(Ignacio Fernandez, Madrid, Spain)
What is the most powerful question a leader can ask someone they are Coaching?
I think the most powerful question is the one that arises in the moment based on deeply listening and asking something that makes that person pause, think and reflect on the situation in a new way.
(Cindy Rold, Littleton, USA)
What do you think stops us from being our best selves and living our best lives?
One of the most pervasive things that stops us is the volume level of the inner critic — in other words, those limiting thoughts and behaviors that hold us back.
(Sarah Nordhausen, San Francisco Bay Area, USA)
What has been your biggest failure and what did you learn from that experience?
Spending time with people who are closed-minded and narrow thinkers. It’s important to have the confidence to say no and step away.
(Annabel Newell, London, UK)
What do you think stops us from being our best selves and living our best lives?
Not taking enough risks in finding our meaning in life and then expecting a return when we haven’t put in the work.
(Vonzel Sawyer, Hillsborough, USA)
What is the most powerful question a leader can ask someone they are coaching?
What can you uniquely do that the world needs tomorrow?
(Shoko Masuda, Connecticut, USA)
We hope some of these answers provided inspiration or at least food for thought.
