development, to release their potential and to achieve
results which they value.

process

where people can grow

13. Coaching helps all your people, when you coach employees,
you improve their ability to do their current jobs and increase
their potential to do more in the future.
COACHING, COUNSELING & MENTORING

14. Counseling, on the other hand, addresses problem performers,
people whose bad habits have become chronic. Taking care of
people problems when they arise may cost you 10% of your
time, seems like a lot. If you don’t deal with them, however
you may find yourself spending 50% of your time trying to put
out the fire.
COACHING, COUNSELING & MENTORING

15. Mentoring is reserved for your most talented employees/scholars ,
work with these people, help them advance, and they will
become assets now and in the future. Ignore them, and they
will find someone else - maybe a competitor – who appreciates
their talents.

ICF COACHING COMPETENCIES

21. LEVELS OF LISTENING

22. We can do this by:
• Quietening our mind. Giving 100% of our attention.
• Being non-judgmental.
• Paraphrasing-repeat what they have said in your words
to demonstrate that you have understood the
discussion and you have been actively listening
LISTENING TO UNDERSTAND

23. Active listening is listening and responding that focuses the
attention on the speaker and improves mutual understanding.
ACTIVE LISTENING

24. The listener is using more effort to listen and process information than speaking
themselves.
The listener has the intention of staying focused on what the other person is saying,
in order to understand fully what they are saying.
The listener is mentally registering and recording facts so they can potentially use
them later (they might also take notes).
The listener continually confirms that they are still listening, by making appropriate
sounds, gestures or expressions.
The listener will actively seek to understand what the person is telling them, by using
clarifying questions, repeating or summarizing information back to the speaker and
offering observations or conclusions.
ACTIVE LISTENING

25. • is one of the most important skills of an emotionally intelligent leader
• builds trust
• encourages positive problem-solving
• takes practice
ACTIVE LISTENING

26. The mind of the listener is mostly quiet and calm.
The awareness of the listener is entirely focused on the other person.
The listener has little or no sense or awareness of themselves.
The listener is totally lucid and present to the person speaking.
This state can easily be broken or disturbed, e.g. by the speaker asking the listener a
question, or seeking acknowledgement of some sort.
DEEP LISTENING

27. Step 1 Use a confirming statement
Step 2 Summarize key facts (paraphrase)
Step 3 Ask if your understanding is correct
Step 4 Clarify misunderstandings (if necessary)
ACTIVE LISTENING
CONFIRMING YOUR UNDERSTANDING
