Part 3: Why explore Q&A?
Question: What do we mean by the terms coachable and non-coachable?
Question (from You tube): How do we identify non-coachable individuals?
Question: Can we identify coachable individuals based on their ability to reflect or the intensity of their resistance?
Question: Is our self-perception linked to being coachable?
Question: When should we engage resistance?
Question: What is the relationship between internal and external resistance?
Question: Do we need to minimize Internal Resistance?
Question: Is there an effective degree of Internal Resistance?
Question: What is the importance of Internal Resistance?
Question: Is Internal Resistance required for transformation?
Question: How is the invisibility of Internal Resistance blocking us?
Question: How can accountability overcome Internal Resistance?
Question: What does it mean to use choice as a mechanism for transformation?
Question: How do we know if Internal Resistance is overwhelming?
Question: When it comes to External Resistance, what are people resisting exactly?
Question: Is it resistance if I feel change isn't fair?
Question: How can we better identify External Resistance?
Question: What is the link between CRS and resistance to change?
Question: How do we overcome External Resistance?
Question: How accurate do CRS need to be to support overcoming External Resistance?
Question: What is our role in supporting people to overcome External Resistance?
Question: What can we do if there is an external cause for resistance?
Question: What if a client refuses to admit they are experiencing resistance?
Question: How are pleasers interacting with discomfort?
Question: How do we get clients to experience just the right degree of resistance?
