A coach shows how to find what someone actually needs help with. Most stated problems are feelings, not real obstacles. The coach asks open questions like "How do you know it's a problem?" to uncover what's really going on.
The first thing that you have to know is I'm very clear with the challenge of Michael Chee. What is the challenge here? Because most of the time, most of the time, when people come up with an issue, it's not the real issue. Yes or no? Yes, probably yes. And you see that most of the issues, they are emotional. They are emotional issues. Why? Why I cannot move forward? Because I'm feeling something. It's not because I cannot take an action. It's about something that I have in me. Some experience, some beliefs. That's the main reason. That's why it's really important to have the real clarity of the Coach's Challenge. That's our first step. We're gonna explore each one of them, but the second one, once you know what is the real issue, It's time to help your coachee to create new possibilities. And as you know, as we are finishing this summit, coaching is not about telling, right? So let me ask you something. If someone just comes with you with a problem, what are you gonna do? What's the first question that you can just ask your coachee?
How do you know it's a problem? What do you see?
What do you see?
Show me. What else? Show me. Show me your problem.
