It is true that<span style=\"color: #444444;\"> Professionalism and experience are helping us become more aware of what we are experiencing, but I would be a poor supervisor if, as a coach, I didn't understand that I also need supervision. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>\u00abMy coachee is not progressing, we are in a vicious cycle.\u00bb<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00abMy coachee bores me\u00bb<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00abThey're asking me for advice, should I give it to them?\u00bb<\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>\u00abI have a coachee with a teenage son, and they have the same problems I do with mine.

From my point of view, this option is a <\/span> return <span style=\"color: #444444;\"> of the situation, because it does not help the coach to strengthen their role, but rather sustains an area pending resolution or development. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #444444;\">On other occasions, these types of situations arise from a feeling of powerlessness: \u00abI'm not able to help my coachee develop,\u00bb \u00abI feel like they're at a standstill.\u00bb. <\/span> It's difficult to help a coachee find alternatives if the coach themselves is at the same crossroads.<\/p>\n<p>I also remember times when the coach would say to me, \u00abWell, but if I don't want to touch this part of me, because it's a cost I don't want to pay right now, that doesn't stop me from continuing with my profession.\u00bb In these cases, what was maintained was a clear blindness to the cues the coachee was giving, about where the possibility for development might lie, and which the coach was missing.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>If a coach isn't prepared to deal with their own stuff, how will they be able to tolerate the discomfort their coachee might feel about that option?<\/h2>\n<p>The possibility of a coach receiving periodic supervision is a free choice for each professional, and so is the format. In my opinion, my responsibility in supporting others in their growth goes through the belief that I still need to grow myself, in order to put this growth at the service of my profession. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What difficulties do you have?
