Coaching the Person, Not the Problem with Reem Labib Tyson

In this #coachbetter episode Kim talks with Reem Labib Tyson, experienced teacher, instructional coach, principal, and district administrator; now CEO and Founder of EDspired Coaching and Consulting where she primarily works with leaders as an executive coach. Reem's extensive background and experience in so many different contexts gives a powerful lens to view coaching from multiple perspectives. And the focus of their conversation today is so important for coaches and leaders at all levels of experience!

In this episode they talk about...

  • How coaches can use mindfulness and a human-centered approach to slow down the pace of a very busy school day

  • How to coach the person not the problem

  • How and why leaders benefit from coaching, too

  • How coaches and leaders can find presence, joy and novelty in their work

This episode highlights a key aspect of coaching that can help all coaches - new and experienced coaches alike - think a little bit differently about the way we can create space for our coaching partner and focus on the person, not the problem.
