Leveraging the Neuroscience of Coaching:
How to Put Resilience Immediately Into Action for You and Your Clients
October 13, 2020 from Noon - 1:30pm MT
Webinar
Speakers: Hayden Lee, MCC, and Dr. Kelly Kent
CCEs: 1 in Core Competencies and 0.5 in Resource Development
This session will be focused on helping coaches help their clients build Resilience through an understanding and acceptance of our Lizard Brain. During this informative and interactive webinar, Hayden and Dr. Kelly will demonstrate how leveraging some neuroscience-based concepts and having an open, flexible, and confident coaching presence can create great insight for the client’s agenda. By actively listening to what the client is and isn’t saying, we can share a neuroscience piece of content with the client as well as the context in how it applies to the client’s agenda. This form of directly sharing neuroscience content and how it applies to the agenda is a form of effective direct communication because it is concise, and the objective is clear.
We will teach how to ask powerful questions regarding the brain science content to seek the client’s understanding and how he or she thinks it applies to his or her goals. This helps with creating awareness in the client of how what is happening in the brain is affecting his or her thoughts, actions, and feelings pertaining to the agenda.
Our brain has a mostly unconscious and instinctual system that has allowed for human survival by protecting us from harm. This “flight or fight” response is sometimes called our “Lizard Brain”. In most modern life situations, our lizard brain is more active than necessary leading to default negativity, limiting assumptions and unhelpful thought patterns.
Master Certified Coach Hayden Lee will do a live coaching demonstration with a participant showing the Straight A’s of Emotional Intelligence and the 4 C’s of Neuroscience Application. Then participants will practice the skills during a fun, enlivening peer coaching session.
