Use the current economic climate to assist your organisation's growth

Posted on Monday, 1 June 2009 | Permalink

The current economic situation can actually provide opportunities for
growth and renewal within your organisation.

Bron recently attended the CATALYST 2009 Australasian Executive
Coaching Summit in Sydney. As colleagues and professionals they
explored the following question: "In what ways is the current economic
situation an opportunity for growth and renewal?" and had some great
debate/dialogue about the role of coaching and the coach during these
uncertain times of cutbacks and limitations.

A coaching focus could be to increase your capacity to break through
under stress, not break down - a skill which will help you in the long
term too. Remember that the global community is connected (i.e. all
"crashed" together) - use this as a positive and an opportunity to
build connections between people and organisations, to explore ways we
can serve and support each other. We can also use coaching skills to
help facilitate dialogue and understanding, which is needed now more
than ever in these uncertain times!
