Whitmore explains:
“No matter how much better the new might be, letting go of the old symbols of our security is always hard. But learning and adopting new behaviors demands that we let go of old ones. The system and skills of coaching are simple and not hard to learn. Letting go of a well-used command-and-control habit to make room for coaching is much harder.”
Becoming a great coach begins with ourselves. We must set ourselves on a path towards becoming a confident, consistent and trust-worthy coach.
