Change Your Mind - Coaching With Vadim Strots


Listen Later

In this episode John chats with Vadim Strots, Life and Career Coach and Engineering Consultant. Vadim specialises in coaching leaders in engineering, technology and science to navigate life or career decisions in these difficult and ever changing fields of expertise. Bringing a wealth of experience and expertise in Industrial Chemistry and as a trained and certified coach, Vadim helps intellectual introverts unlock the potential of their powerful minds, aids those stuck at career crossroads to develop a clear vision of their life and future to enable them to take confident steps forward and guides busy expats and international workers in unfamiliar cultures to become more at ease with dealing with the unfamiliar.
John and Vadim discuss how he moved into coaching and how his skills can be applied to his chosen area of clientele, his experience moving from country to country, how freedom to express and communicate can not only be more efficient but also make someone happier and how he approaches coaching on an individual level to ascertain the complicated issues at work. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • After quitting Chemical Engineering, Vadim was offered job coaching by the German authorities to discover a new interest and found his niche in communication, leadership and coaching. 
  • Vadim’s experience in the technical fields helps him and his clients to get in touch with the different, less intellectually based, side of themselves. 
  • Vadim moved from the Soviet Union as it was collapsing, to the US and so has experience in adapting to a different culture and can advise others in this area.
  • You cannot learn how being an expat is going to be until you spend a good amount of time in your adopted country.
  • Being able to converse openly and being emotionally communicative can provide a sense of freedom. It is not always the most intelligent people who are successful, it is often those who can communicate ideas effectively.
  • Vadim does not use a set method approach to coaching, he uses individual approaches for each of his clients.

BEST MOMENTS
I ended up in Germany in Berlin doing highly sophisticated work on diesel engine exhausts until I hit the spot where I realised that, oops, I have no more interest in that.’ – Vadim
‘We share similar traits, we spend a lot of time in our heads, less in our bodies and emotions. We tend to forget about our capacities that exist and are beyond.’ – Vadim
‘So you’re helping people see completely and get in touch with a completely different side of themselves?’ - John
‘I must say my family and I, we had a very easy transition in terms of finances. We had been well supported at the time. That has been a culture shock. It was probably the strongest for my daughter. She was 7 years old.’ – Vadim
‘During all this process you pay attention to what is going on. What’s going on with the coaching? What’s going on with you. What’s going on in the space between you. And in this space in between you, sometimes miracles happen.’ – Vadim
