Why Should We Bother with a Systemic Approach and Constellations in Coaching?
Listen now
Description
In this episode we ask the question - "Why should we bother with a systemic approach and constellations in coaching?” Listen in to this episode if you are interested in learning more about what systemic coaching is and how systemic constellations as a technique works in practice. You will be particularly interested in this episode if you are keen to understand how other factors in your life/work might be impacting you - how you feel and how you perform at work. We talk through some examples to demonstrate how constellations work in practice and we introduce a question “What is one step for better that would free up the system?” We talk about physical constellations or ‘sculpting’, which is also a very useful technique in coaching supervision, and how all sorts of things can be surfaced. In teams, we talk about the outside-in and future-back approach, using more systemic questions such as; Who does your team serve? What will they require differently from you in the future? What will you regret in two years’ time not having addressed? And one of Gregor’s favourite questions; When you are successful as a team, what will they (your stakeholders) be doing differently? We also explore when HR should be looking for a systemic approach from their coaches. Sarah reminds us how whiteboards on Zoom and Teams can be a great enabler and just because we can’t meet physically doesn’t mean that you can’t work systemically with constellations.
