We believe that coaching is all about helping our coachees to generate new thinking. However, in order to generate new thinking, it's useful for our coachees to know what they're already thinking and what has led them to tell the stories they're telling. There is power, wisdom and insight sitting within the stories our coachees tell, as well as contradiction, tension and dissonance, if only we took the time to really listen and be truly present. Narrative coaching taps into our coachee's storytelling, seeking to uncover the beliefs, the assumptions, the internal struggles and the different parts that they are playing. Through this fascinating approach to coaching, we can start to explore the tales our coachee's tell and start to discern what is a helpful story and when, perhaps, a better, alternative story might be advantageous for the coachee to tell. In this episode of our podcast, we explore what narrative coaching is, where it comes from and how it can be used when helping coachees to explore the situations they face and the stories they are telling themselves.
