Dave Stachowiak: Coaching for Leaders

Tom Henschel, host of The Look & Sound of Leadership podcast, executive coach at Essential Communications, and friend of Dave, interviews him on the growth of Coaching for Leaders and how he developed his voice.

Key Points
  • When trying to do something that helps others, remember that it’s not about you—don’t worry about you, worry about them.
  • The best way to build a connection with people is to get really curious about them.
  • You have to make the decision to listen.
  • If you don’t have a lot of time to listen, figure out how much time you do have and make the decision to be totally present in that short time.
  • Listening is an attitude, not a set of skills.
  • View failure as data rather than an identity.
