SUSTAINLEAD™ · GLO:B

Respectful conversations. Coaching grounded in trust.

Questioning, reflection, experimentation and integration help leaders find their own answers and put them into practice.

A HUMAN PARTNERSHIP

The leader’s answers belong to the leader.

Respect the person’s emotions, needs and context. Listening and questions create space to examine familiar interpretations and make choices grounded in what matters.

Organizational pressure is not only a personal issue. Distinguish individual choices from conditions that need to change together.

Colleagues listening and sharing perspectives

THE QUALITY OF THE CONVERSATION

A conversation with room to think

Agree the focus together

Explore the question that matters now and what would make this conversation useful.

Stay curious before judging

Listen for meaning and experience without rushing to conclusions.

Respect ownership of choices

Help the leader discover a meaningful choice rather than follow the coach’s answer.
