Journey of reflection and growth Renewing my ICF Master Certified Coach (International Coaching Federation) credentials was not just a checkbox task. ✅Here’s what this three-year process gave me: • More than paperwork: Renewal isn’t just a formality. It’s like reappearing for an exam, reaffirming your skills and dedication. • External validation: You don’t just claim the title of ‘coach’—you earn it. The ICF evaluates you through a certified, rigorous process. • Pride in the ICF (International Coaching Federation )brand: Holding this credential means carrying the pride of a globally recognized standard. It’s not a bed of roses; it’s earned through commitment and excellence. • Deeper connections: Every interaction during this journey deepened my ability to empathize and guide. The renewal gave me a fresh perspective, making every conversation more meaningful. • Gratitude for growth: This credential isn’t just a title. It’s an opportunity that changed who I am—a gateway to people’s raw emotions, which has been transformational. Coaching is not for everyone, and being an ICF-certified coach means you’ve passed through the fire to ensure your value as a professional. If you're working on renewing your credentials or starting your journey, here’s my take aways: • Embrace every conversation as a lesson. • Reflect on the stories you hear—they will shape your path. • Know that being a coach is not just a role; it’s a responsibility evaluated by the highest standards. ------------------------------------------------------------------ P.S.

Is your organizational design vulnerable? Strategy, business models, and organizational design are linked in ways that should not be compromised. All should be in support of the purpose of an organization Also, culture stays within a person long after the person has left the culture. This is important when you think about people joining your company in a foreign land. The author writes about how a disconnect between the corporate organizational design and other sites can cause problems if the local leader leaves. International companies need to balance the local culture aspects with the parent company’s culture. Factors such as trusting, communication, deciding, leading, disagreeing, scheduling, persuading, and evaluating are going to be different and must be respected. The array of designs is not a list which you can choose from. You must start with what you have, stop doing some things, and learn how to do others. I have seen leaders change the structure of their company to fit an improvement initiative or in an attempt to gain better control. Once the leader moves on, the structure disintegrates because it was forced without a connection to the other important aspects of the organization. In many respects, it is not you who picks your organizational design, it is the design that is made for your business.  #organizationaldesign #culture #strategy #purpose https://lnkd.in/eY7Qx9PQ

It isn't about YOU! If we had a $ for every time we said this each week ... As an agent, or leader of change; It isn't about YOU. It takes maturity, self-awareness, and self-confidence to step into the facilitation space, where it isn't about you. When I hear Change Agents talking about what they have done. 'When I ...', 'Then I ...' it is all about them. They aren't ready, yet. One of my favourite new language hacks helps here: When listening to others, instead of saying 'I know', which is all about you. Try: 'You are right' instead. It pivots to them, not you, validates their thinking, and as a bonus helps them see that you are listening and agree with them. A point of connection. We love our simple Irrational Change Brain Hacks - they are subtle, but oh-so effective. Try it, let me know how it works for you. #irrationalchange #itisnotaboutyou #languagematters

Strategic plans often gather dust. Why? Simple: - Overcomplicated goals - Vague steps - Poor communication Did you know? Research shows that 67% of well-formulated strategies fail due to poor execution. Keep it simple. Clear. Aligned with your team's strengths. Example: Instead of 'become an industry leader,' focus on 'launch two new products in Q1.' Strategic planning is a dynamic roadmap, not just a document. How do you ensure your strategic plans succeed? Share your tips. 📌 Have a challenge you are looking to overcome in your leadership?
