Having just finished his coaching workshop sessions for ACC credentialing, Nagesh was eager, in his first coaching session, to contract with his client, a 30-year-old Latina executive in a large US software company.

Nagesh: “What would you like to explore in today’s session?”
Client: (after several seconds) “I am tired of being an impostor.”
Nagesh: “What aspect of being an impostor would you like to talk about today?”
Client: (silent for even longer than the first time) “I cannot ever be myself at work. ”
Nagesh: “To clarify, you want to explore how tiring it is not to be yourself at work?”
Client: “Yes.”
Nagesh: “Why is this topic important to you?”
Client: Silent for a long time, looking down dejectedly …

The client never came back for a second session. Following the ICF guidelines on direct communication, I asked the client twice and even clarified the specific topic she wished to explore in the coaching session. What had I done wrong? If I had been more culturally self-aware, I would have realized that the question, “Why is this important to you?” was devoid of empathy. A 2016 Harvard Business Review article noted that 76% of Latinos in the US corporate culture repressed their personas at work. To quote, “You’re always moderating yourself,” agrees a Latina executive, who feels Latinas “are always tagged with the emotional thing. They’re always told, ‘Calm down. You’ve got to be more cool. Be careful with your voice, be careful with your hands.'” Another executive noted that she felt like a pretzel constantly bending out of shape to adapt to the US corporate culture.

Culture matters. Culture is learned and shared attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors among a group of interacting people (Bennett, 1993). We can belong to multiple cultures based on our nationality, ethnicity, gender, class, sexual orientation, thought patterns, or how we manage conflict. As language is the way we learn and share our cultural beliefs, it becomes a cornerstone in effective coaching.

Instead of “Why is this important to you?” what if I had said, “Feeling like an impostor must be exhausting,” opening the door for the client to share her story in detail.

In the U.S. today, there is an increased appreciation of diversity, equity and inclusion in both profit and nonprofit organizations. A recent LinkedIn search showed 2000+ Chief Diversity Officer jobs. It is unclear, however, if professional coaches adapt their content and communication styles to be client centered.

In this session, we will investigate the role of culture in coaching, how we first have a deep understanding of our own cultural values and biases to effectively coach clients from diverse backgrounds and learn a few skills to be a culturally adaptive coach.

This workshop will provide an overview of the key principles of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model and how they can be incorporated into your coaching practice. IFS is a very honoring, nonviolent model that supports the engagement of a client’s whole system rather than aligning with only the parts of the client that are ready for and embrace change.

Audience will take away:

• Understanding of how a whole system approach to coaching can lead to greater effectiveness.
• Learn strategies for working with highly resistant, skeptical or fearful parts of the client.
• Develop one’s own Self energy to enhance your coaching presence.

He draws on nearly 20 years of experience with the Internal Family Systems model and has co-taught multiple courses in partnership with the IFS Institute.

Facilitated by Elle McPherson, ACC

This is always well attended and provides a wonderful learning opportunity as well as exposure to new coaching styles!

Elle will be doing a demonstration of the 10 Finger Process, a simple but highly effective method to guide clients to reprogram limiting beliefs. During the demo, she will demonstrate how this process can be used to guide clients in achieving goals. (Hint: it’s not in forcing the goal, but in holding the polarity of realizing and processing the various past beliefs or actions that have or could interfere with the goal, and the desire to achieve the goal.)

After the demo, we’ll discuss a few of the key principles behind why this technique works, and other applications for how to use this simple, but really effective, method.

This method is an example of the processes of Accelerated Evolution Academy, of which Elle is a certified Level 2 Coach and Trainer-in-Training.
