LIVESTREAMED - From Perfectionist to Experimenter: Adapt with Speed and Grace
Friday, August 25, 2023
5:30pm – 6:15pm (New York)
Location: Caribbean 1-2
Resource Development: 0.75
This session will define the SANE approach (Small Steps, Accelerate Experimentation, Nurture, and Exercise your Network) and discuss how it enables those with perfectionist tendencies to move faster and avoid perfectionist paralysis. You will hear a personal story of a perfectionist in recovery and stories about coaching clients on how weird things are happening. Based on the Birkman Method Assessment, you will learn the three approaches to experimentation and how to use them to help coaching clients expand their comfort zones and become more adept at experimenting by taking tiny steps.
In a group coaching exercise, we’ll review two case studies on the “driven to prove” and “driven to succeed” mindsets. You will participate in a large group improvisational conversation with 10 minutes on each mindset. We’ll then discuss coaching approaches and questions for clients to support the two mindsets in expanding their comfort zones and becoming more intentional in adapting and succeeding in this “new normal” world.
Learning Objectives:
Define the SANE (Small Steps, Accelerate Experimentation, Nurture, and Exercise your Network) approach and how this helps those with perfectionist tendencies move faster and avoid perfection paralysis.
Describe the three approaches to experimentation based on the Birkman Method Assessment: driven to prove, in between, and driven to succeed. And define your individual preferences around risk-taking.
Illustrate how to use the three approaches to experimentation to help coaching clients expand their comfort zones and become more adept at experimenting by taking tiny steps.
