Clean Coaching (and Clean life!)

There have been two major influences on the world of coaching in the last few years. One came from Frank Farrelly and his Provocative Coaching (see my programme on this) and the other came via a remarkable man David Grove with whom I had the privilege to study. Now Provocative and Clean (Dirty and Clean) might seem like totally different styles and on the surface they are. However both have the same outcome – powerful change through awareness and self discovery. And they complement each other beautifully.

And ‘Clean’ is not just confined to coaching. It is a way of listening and giving others attention in ways that most people rarely experience in life. It is a non directive style that allows the recipient to discover their own truth. I go so far as to say that it is with a ‘Clean’ approach that we can increase understanding and acceptance of difference in the world.

And what does it mean to be clean? Well it means to bring as little of your own ‘stuff’ into the dialogue. As David Grove himself said

“The ‘I’ness of the facilitator should virtually cease to exist” Easy to say .. very challenging to do.

The outcomes

What will you learn from these two days – how to:-

• get into a state of naive curiosity and ‘not knowing’
• decide when to use a ‘clean’ approach
• Build and remain in a state of rapport as you question in this way
• Use this conversationally rather than clinically
• Be ‘clean’ in everyday situations where you want to truly listen and enhance understanding
• Use this approach to elicit metaphors for life
• Use the approach to enrich goal setting and the achievement of those goals in ways that are meaningful
• Develop a style of being with others that they find attractive
• Suport others in ways that are non directive and confidence building
