A coach asks whether you'd actually want to be coached by yourself. The monologue pushes leaders to reflect on their own humility, influence, and how they treat themselves before they try to lead others.
My advice to coaches, simply be reminded by asking this question to yourself. Would you want to be coached by you? Would you want to be coached by you? If you're really doing it at a high level as a coach, man, what a powerful platform that is to have or to be a teammate in a leadership role. I think the best leaders, they impact and influence positive change while also knowing that they're human, too. Like, give yourself some grace in the midst of the journey. But for coaches, the appropriate perspective is ask yourself, would you want to be coached by you?
