Discover Your Cutting Edge - Young Adults Experiential Workshop

Organized by Metropolitan YMCA Singapore and sponsored by Hong Kong Land, I had the privilege to facilitate a youth and young adults career workshop with the theme on mental well-being.

Participants were 21-30 years old.

Using the ontological approach, I designed the workshop around the idea of building Self-Confidence and covered 2 key components:
1. Knowing Your Cutting Edge

2. Expanding your capacity for discomfort.

I contextualised the applications towards career development and there were lots of great questions and engagement. There were an experiential experience designed to help the young adults understand how they behave in discomfort. That was the highlight and I’m glad that many walked away understanding what it takes to build self-confidence.

Performance Coaching for Results

ICF requires certified coaches to continue their learning and practice so I am delighted to complete a Performance Coaching Workshop last weekend by The Coach Partnership. It was fun being a learner again!

I’m also delighted that I get to apply what I’ve learnt immediately as a team coach at Motion: For Impact. So straight away, I did some performance coaching over the week to help team members win at their game! I love the simplicity of this approach.

What’s performance coaching❓
It’s a type of coaching that aims to help individuals win and achieve their goal. The foundation of Performance Coaching is the trust and care between coach and coachee.

It’s a great set of skills for managers who are looking to reduce the reliance of the team on the manager. It is a practice that yields sustainable results.

✅ Staff grow their skills and deliver the required results. They grow their confidence.

✅ Managers benefit in the long run with a more motivated and skillful team and having more time freed up as a result.

✅ The coach helps coachees clarify specifics about their goal. Often, the goal isn’t really that clear.

✅ The coach drills the coachees on their commitment and why they want the results. The coachee might possibly fail at the initial stages. Knowing the purpose strengthens the ability to be resilient.

✅ The coach holds the coachees accountable for the results they want to create for themselves. It’s easy to not hit the goal and find excuses. Having someone to hold a person accountable strengthens the will to succeed.

❌What Performance Coaching is not:
It is not a last ditch intervention to help uncommitted staff.
It is not a tool for managers to achieve their own agenda.
It is not sports coaching. No tactical plans are given by the coach.

🏅What has been my personal learning?
A performance coach needs both the supporting and challenging muscles to serve the client. I realized my challenging muscle is much stronger than my supporting one. So I am now more conscious in my coaching practice.

Values Workshop - Culture Building

Together with my Chief Experience Officer, Hajar, I co-created and facilitated a values workshop for the Motion team. We spent a few months planning for this values workshop as part of a larger frame of building and strengthening the culture for the existing team.

The day went very well. I led an icebreaker that had so much laughter and I loved it! The people were very engaged and by the time the workshop ended, we had many meaningful conversations among the different ones.

CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Leadership Workshop Program - International Group (STB)

What a joy to be back at Singapore Tourism Board. This is the 17th session I have done for STB and it continues to be a joy to be trusted.

We covered the full 34 CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) results of the whole leadership team for the international group in STB. This leadership team is so much fun to be around. They were warm, participative and eager to learn.

Integrating ontological approach, we explored the strengths mindset and discussed the case for strengths. We also discussed in depth the diversity of strengths represented and how each person leads differently.

Felt totally at ease and at home with this group of leaders! Thankful that I could connect with Serene Tan again. In the 17 sessions I have conducted over the years, she has probably been in four of those. So great to connect with her again.
