Cultivating Coachability - Book Group

Our regular h³ Book Group is made up of independent coaches, consultants and facilitators from our network and meets roughly monthly. Last week we had the pleasure of hosting Clare Norman MCC Norman and our long-term friend and book group member, Dr Sam Humphrey, to discuss their new book, Cultivating Coachability.

Our group enjoyed a wide-ranging and thoughtful conversation around the book’s central themes of ‘readiness’ at different stages in the coaching process, our diverse approaches to engaging with different stakeholders to ensure coaching lands effectively for clients, coaches and sponsors (and identifying when and why it might not). One takeaway that many of us were drawn to was the idea of reframing "chemistry meetings" as "compatibility meetings”.

A big thank you to Clare and Sam for joining us and sharing their thinking, and to our friends and book group members for making the session a wonderful hour of reflection, provocation, and connection.
