![]() ![]() It kind of connects very nicely with the topic for today. I think that's the space that a lot of these schools are playing in with these new departments. And now let me go do my coaching session. You know, not remedial, not something that you're using because something's hurting or you're in pain, but more, it's going well, I want to make sure it continues to go well and maybe even make it go even better. This is how I can use it in my life, and to look at it more like a thing to help them go from good to great rather than something - the word that comes to mind is palliative, which is a silly word. This is how it's different from advising. That's pretty cool.Īnd now what we have, our job as coaches now is to figure out how to market coaching to students, so they know, okay, this is what it's like. And so now they're establishing separate coaching departments that follow alongside advising departments. So they now have firsthand experience with what a coaching session is like, how it's different from advising, and so they can see the benefit of it. So what we heard a lot of, the current trend right now is, administrators who understand the difference between coaching and advising, a lot of these administrators, they are being coached. ![]() And I think coaching is going to have its own department in a lot of these universities and schools. And I think what's going to happen is that advising will adopt more and more of a coach-like stance, with really helping students navigate that inner geography. I was struck by where I feel like the future of the advising profession, and the coaching profession, where both of those are going to play in the higher education space. Is there anything that you would want to share with the listeners around that? Before we get into the topic, I'm just curious then, you said from this experience, the event that you were at, thinking about where coaching sits and what's happening in the coaching world. It reminded me a bit of what coaching itself is like, when you connect with someone. And I think for me it's that reminder of just the power of connection, isn't it? Energy, inspiration, we were able to bounce ideas off each other, you know, use each other as a sounding board. And I was able to connect with Ashley and Britt as well. It was fantastic to connect with you, John, and the team. And it was really good to see other perspectives too, on what coaching can bring to other professions. I'm more excited than ever for the field of coaching. So I'm still riding high from the week conference with the national association of college advisors in Orlando and getting back into it. You know, there's that initial like, Ooh, what's it going to be like? And then once you get in there, it's fun. And you know, working remote, I've worked with people all over, and then you get a chance to meet, and it's fun. You know, so Raj and I just met in person in Orlando. So how are you, John? What have you been up to? ![]() ![]() I know lots of exciting things have been happening over the last few days with you and coach training edu. And I'm here with John Andrew Williams, who's the founder of coach training edu. And I'm your host, Raj Anderson, executive life coach and coach assessor. Welcome everyone to the coaching to flourish podcast. ![]()
