How we will work together •
•
•
•
We practice confidentiality
Respect the persons who are coached during class and do not share any of their coaching conversation once the coaching session is over - not with the PBC, not with other class members and not with anyone outside of class.
We are learning partners
Everyone in this class is a teacher and a pupil. Be ready to learn from everyone around you and to contribute to the learning of others in the class. Ask questions, share your wisdom, work hard when you’re placed in groups. Contribute without dominating.
We create a safe place for risk
Be willing to try (and fail) in order to learn. Trust that you will do some things “wrong” as you learn and that when you do you are not wrong as a person. Be open to feedback and welcome it. Give feedback that is honest and do so with kindness.
We are responsible for our own learning
If you’re not getting what you need, be sure to ask for it. Class will start (or resume) on time, and we will trust each other to be where we most need to be.

Week 2
Key Scriptures Romans 12:1-2
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. What words or phrases signify change, transition or transformation? © Coach Approach Ministries
Key Scriptures Romans 12:1-2 (from The Message) So, here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: take your everyday, ordinary life – your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking around life – and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings out the best in you, develops well-formed maturity in you.
What words or phrases signify change, transition or transformation? © Coach Approach Ministries
Key Scriptures Ephesians 4:22-24 You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

Eight Principles of Change Change
feels awkward. Sometimes if feels like change is taking place behind your back. The first thing people think about with change is not what they might gain, but what they have to lose. People feel alone with change. People can only handle so much change at a time. Change can be handled with creative resourcing. People are at different stages of readiness to change. Given the chance, most people will go back to old ways even in the new way is better. from Ken Blanchard © Coach Approach Ministries
Assumed Constraints Beliefs or assumptions that limit what you do and how you think.

  As
a coach, how do you help others create awareness about their assumed constraints?
Š Coach Approach Ministries
Principles of Proactive Change Change means movement. Movement means friction. Change is letting go of things that are familiar and comfortable, even though they may not be good for us. Some people view change as a threat, not as a challenge or an opportunity. Some view change as exciting and invigorating. Most people don’t initiate change, especially when things are going smoothly. It takes wisdom to know when to make changes. Without change, growth is impossible. Š Coach Approach Ministries
Coaching Proactive Change
Assume that coaching clients are interested in change and in taking action. Assess readiness for outside actions and inside changes. Move as quickly as the person is interested in going. Check on reasons if there’s a break in forward movement. Help the client to move into the changes by setting stretch goals. Use language as a way of provoking forward. Acknowledge actions and changes.

Success Factors for Change Initiated by the person Deep sense of WIIFM (what’s in it for me?)
External reinforcements in place Others are told about the changes (support, including accountability) Obstacles identified and removed if possible
Skills identified and developed if there’s movement away from change Opportunities to practice new behaviors in safe environment

The Results Cycle Model for Change
Š Coach Approach Ministries
Case Study Jason is the youth leader at the church. He has been on staff for 3 years. During those years, several troubled youth have been positively impacted, remaining in school, changing their attitudes and becoming more responsible. Because of these successes, Jason thought things were going well. However, many of the parents are upset about how the youth ministry is being handled. Most of the events on the youth calendar are posted “just in time” rather than being posted in advance, so parents don’t know what to expect and can’t plan for their youths’ activities. Recently, Jason planned for a ministry trip, however when parents asked practical questions about what time the vans would leave and how much money to bring along, Jason didn’t have the answers. This has caused much frustration. Jason’s pastor has told him that he needs to focus on details and on providing information for the parents, not just on relationships with the youth. He has given Jason 6 months to make some significant changes in how he manages the youth ministry. He has also asked you to be Jason’s coach. When you first met with Jason, he insisted that the pastor doesn’t like him and is trying to find things to pick on. Jason said the pastor doesn’t understand how important his work with the troubled youth has been. Jason is calling in for a coaching session in a few minutes.

Transition Internal process to adapt to the changes in your external environment. A passing from one condition, form, stage, activity, or place to another. Transition is the internal process needed to adapt to change, such as letting go of an old reality and old identity. “It’s not the changes that do you in, it’s the transitions.” - William Bridges, Managing Transitions

Bridge’s Transition Theory
© Coach Approach Ministries
Principles of Transition While
change is usually external, transitions are an internal process to help adapt to change. Unless transition occurs, change will not work. The
starting point for transition is awareness of what you’re leaving behind and being able and willing to let go. After letting go, people move into a “neutral zone: which is somewhere between the old reality and the new. The “neutral zone,” while unpleasant, is a place for healing, regeneration, creativity and growth. It’s important to stay in the neutral zone rather than moving out of it too quickly. © Coach Approach Ministries
Principles of Transition Every
aspect of transition is challenging. Information is a critical aspect of transition, particularly in families and organizations. A new beginning is as challenging as other aspects of transitions because it requires new purpose, new understanding, new attitudes and new identities.

where the person is Allow challenges or concerns to be shared Give time to work through resistance Allow the person to experience small steps in transition Clarify the change proposition well Invite the person into the process rather than demanding it and take the time to discuss the benefits Help people gain and share enough information so they can champion the change as a way of getting through transitions more easily © Coach Approach Ministries

Transformation Transformation: A dramatic conversion, revolution or makeover of a person.
A creeping caterpillar is transformed into a soaring butterfly – yet as children of God we are to undergo a change that makes that one barely noticeable. -John Ortberg, The Life You’ve Always Wanted
© Coach Approach Ministries
Principles of Transformation God
is speaking to us more than we realize. He is interested in every part of our lives. Transformation comes when we are willing to listen, to turn aside from our old ways and to have our routines interrupted. When true transformation occurs, I am not just “doing” what God wants me to do. I am different from the inside out. © Coach Approach Ministries
Triple Loop Learning and Coaching
Š Coach Approach Ministries
Triple Loop Learning and Coaching Results (Errors) are what we get from our actions. These are short- & long-term, internal & external. Actions are the things we do, how we are with ourselves and others, decisions we make, etc. Our actions are made possible and limited by the Frames/Strategies we have. We can change what we do without changing how we see things (frame), but only to the extent that our frame will allow. Much of our coaching occurs at this level of incremental learning/improvement. Life Strategies are the underlying patterns of how we think and behave. This is how we see things, our paradigms and attitudes. We can change how we see things (reframe) without changing who we are (transform), but the amount of of reframing possible is limited by who we are (identity). Reframing is significant learning. When we help a client shift his patterns, we are coaching at this level of change. This is less common in our coaching only because it is more significant and more difficult than changing actions. Story/Identity involves who we are. This is the story you believe you are in and the role you believe your are playing in that story. This is based on the sum total of conclusions you’ve reached as an individual. These are not the values/assumptions you hold, but the values and assumptions that hold you. It is from the story/identity that we draw our identity and basic patterns of thinking and behaving. Rarely does a client think that getting different results will require him to change who he is, how he sees himself, and the beliefs that hold him at the deepest level. When our coaching supports the client in (re)considering Š Coach Approach Ministries who he is, we are coaching for transformation.
Triple Loop Learning and Coaching Example: Jill believes life is a story of winning or losing and her role in the story is to win by being liked/included. Given this, she might approach the world as a series of tests, which she must strive to pass by impressing others (in order to be included) and should resist failing (being disliked or not included). Her actions might be to dress to impress, present a positive image and do her best to “fit in” with others. “If I’m all together, no one will reject me.” The results she gets might include living under the burden of doubt, spending more than she can afford in order to present a certain image, and having few people who truly know her. From that same identity, she could also encounter the world with a different strategy, perhaps one based on pleasing others (versus impressing others). From the strategy of “If I please others, they will like me,” she could take actions such as always seeming concerned, meeting the needs of others, volunteering and putting herself second. She might get very different results from this frame and set of actions, such as being tired, wondering why others don’t care for her in the way she cares for them, resentment, etc. If Jill experienced transformation, she might believe life to be a story of authenticity, with her role being one who is discovering who she is. From this identity, she might strive to know herself well and to bring her truest self to bear on every situation. From this strategy, she might take actions such as noticing and regulating her inner self-talk, showing kindness without using kindness to control others, and presenting her true self to others so they could truly know her. The results might be fewer acquaintances and more friends, increased confidence, etc. © Coach Approach Ministries
Principles of Transformation There are many practices that help us to be transformed: Taking time with God Listening and obeying Praying Serving Reflecting Suffering

Case Study: Gary Gary is a leader who identifies with a command and control context and takes an autocratic style of relating. He spends his time watching and checking on the people he manages at work in order to get as much as he can out of them. He relates to his wife by pointing out how she can do things better and where she’s coming up short. His parenting style is to hold his children to a very high standard and to give them constant feedback about what is expected and how well/poorly they are doing. He believes he is serving others (“helping them”) by be so generous with his input. Lately Gary is feeling frustrated and isolated. He wonders why others are so passive around him and cannot seem to make decisions or take responsibility. Work is making him tired because he feels like the only one who can make decisions and do things right. At home he senses resentment from his wife and children but when he asks about it, they do not share openly with him. Their lack of openness leads him to believe they do not know how to relate so he feels like the only one trying. He’s even given family members feedback on how to be honest, but they only seem to be even more dependent on him. His response to their apparent dependence on him is to be even more directive and autocratic. Gary has come to you for coaching because he truly wants different results. He wants a sense of intimacy with this family. He wants to grow leaders at work. © Coach Approach Ministries
