DISCUSS THE PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF EFFECTIVE COACHING AND MENTORING AT AN EXECUTIVE OR SENIOR LEVEL.
Description
The reading list shows some good sources for the project and the essay doc was a start.
The Essay doc attached (Firs Draft 1.1-4
Understanding_the_Principles_and_Practice_of_Effective_Coaching_and_Mentoring_at_an_Executive_or_Senior_Level.docx) needs checking, especially the sources, I mixed Pass more and Whit more up and to be honest, can’t now see the wood for the trees.
The Early thoughts for discussion document was a stab at looking at the working of an organization (AC1.2) for this I took the organization to be International Governmental Organizations Post Conflict, primarily comparing and contrasting the support to Rule Of Law in Kosovo (somewhat successful) and Afghanistan (Abject failure)
When comparing the two through the Ministries of Interior and the police, it is clear that to a greater extent Kosovo police were afforded the ability to take control of their own direction post 2013 and matured rapidly as an institution, with some degree of operational independence from 2019, until political interference recommenced under Prime Minister Hoti’s removal of the the Director General of Police without due process, Taking the advances back some 10 years, a behavior that looks set to continue.
Afghanistan, with a focus of having the police heavily support the Security forces, (checkpoint security, fighting the Tali Ban etc… Rather than the security forces being able to provide the security infrastructure within which the police can mature as an organization. The failures to deal effectively with corruption and the lack of legitimacy of the government, seized upon by the Taliban, (through their media campaign)
(see The Guiding Principles document, a Guide to Democratic Policing and Goal Setting)
A little Bit On Coaching Models:
What is missing from the GROW model
CREATE and Discussion of the book ‘Excellence in Coaching’ and the variety of coaching models. Cognitive Behavioral, Trans personal, NLP
Reviewing GROW (whit more) and CREATE (CCI) and other(s) would be great but a real focus being flexible and targeting everything to the client, a rigid adherence to models being a an error in my view.
Planning, Preparation and Rapport Building, which needs to be a constant.
Also entering around value systems (Simon Sinek WHY)
For the Coach – Centre around the Codes of Ethics of Coaching
For me centre around helping others
For the Organization or Client, Centre around Core Ethics and Values of the organisation (Client)
For the Coachee – Centre around the Core Ethics and Values of the Coachee
Maybe some Adair circle at the centre of any model chosen
For the assessment tools Myers Briggs, Thomas and ENGAGE… Engage being State of mind…
Maybe a couple of conversation may be of use
Some videos to set the direction from the course providers also.
