Claire Pedrick and Andrew Cain are in conversation about why improv skills make great coaches. They discuss how stepping into the unknown can lead to discovery, the importance of partnership in coaching, and the value of creating a playful and open environment for breakthroughs. Andrew shares his journey into improv and how it has shaped his approach to coaching, the need to unlearn perfectionism and how to embrace mistakes as part of the learning process.   Key Takeaways: Improv allows us to step into the unknown and discover new insights. Some lessons can only be learned through experience, not books. Going into a liminal space can lead to valuable discoveries. Coaching is about partnering with people in their journey of not knowing. Breakthroughs in coaching often come from playful exploration. Treating people as poets and geniuses fosters creativity. Everything in improv is disposable, allowing for flexibility. Creating space for emergence is crucial in coaching. Unlearning perfectionism opens up new possibilities. Mistakes should be embraced as part of the learning process. Sound Bites: "Improv helps us step into not knowing." "We can't learn everything from a book." "There's value in going into the liminal space." "Discovery means partnering with them in not knowing." "Everything is disposable in improv." "Improv is about unlearning rather than adding more." "Breakthroughs in coaching are not linear."   Contact:   Contact Andrew Cain through playconnect.co.uk Contact Claire by emailing info@3dcoaching.com  or check out our Substack where you can talk with other listeners.

In this episode of The Coaching Inn, Claire Pedrick speaks with Josefine Campbell, author of '12 Tools for Managing a Selfish Leader.' Josefine shares how motherhood deepened her emotional intelligence and influenced her coaching approach. They talk about the complexities of dealing with selfish leaders, and the importance of stress management, establishing clear boundaries, and providing practical strategies for building resilience.    Josefine is at Leadership Live 2025 in London on June 24th 2025. If you’re around. https://iol.rsvp.gther.com    Key Takeaways: Managing personal stress is the initial and most vital step when dealing with a selfish leader. Establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries is essential for navigating relationships with difficult individuals. Effective management of one's own energy is crucial for maintaining resilience in challenging work environments. The focus of coaching should be on empowering people to change themselves, rather than attempting to change others. Adopting a flexible and compassionate approach is key in successful coaching relationships. Practical tools for managing selfish leaders include techniques for stress reduction and boundary setting. Preventing burnout within teams involves actively engaging them in energy management practices. Josefine believes in the fundamental good in everyone, even those who exhibit selfish behaviors.
