Mark Schall is a Certified Master Coach who helps leaders, managers and execs overcome their fear of difficult conversations so that they can increase engagement, reduce turnover, and blow their business results out of the water in 6 months or less. We discuss how he does all that in this fascinating episode of the Essential Coaching Skills Podcast. To contact Mark or find out more about what he has to offer, go to www.markschall.com.

We are discussing the importance of getting a solid education in coaching and the significance of becoming certified. Dave shared his insights on why coaching is a natural human skill but emphasized the need to unlearn certain societal conditioning to become an effective coach.

We discussed the different levels of certification offered by the International Coach Federation (ICF) and why striving for the Master Certified Coach (MCC) level can elevate a coach's ability to engage with clients on a deeper, more energetic level. Dave also highlighted the distinction between skills and techniques in coaching, suggesting that while natural skills are essential, advanced techniques require education and practice.

I shared my plans to offer longer, more in-depth courses in NLP, Neo-Ericksonian hypnosis, and Sleight of Mouth, focusing on essential coaching skills. Dave and I also talked about our upcoming collaboration, which aims to combine my expertise in these techniques with CoachVille's accredited coaching programs to provide a comprehensive learning experience for aspiring coaches.

Towards the end, we touched on the future of coaching in the age of AI and the importance of human connection in coaching. Dave emphasized that while AI can handle transactional aspects, it cannot replicate the empathy and intimacy that human coaches provide. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in elevating their coaching practice and understanding the evolving landscape of the coaching profession.

It's not enough to be a great coach, you need to get clients who will pay you money for your services. Coaches need to wear multiple hats. You need to sell them on your services.

Kenrick Cleveland is widely acknowledged as a master of persuasion. In my experience, he is THE GUY who started the use of NLP for other-than-therapeutic purposes. He's the first person that I know who used NLP for sales.

I ask him about his latest innovation in this field in today's episode. He calls it DreamState Selling

In our continuing series of what I learned from Dave Dobson, my guest today is Michael Halbfish. Michael is not a coach or a hypnotist, he is an attorney, but he learned a lot from Dave during his visit to the Island and has a lot to say about the subject.

Ulf Sandstrom and I discuss "Clean Language" and "Clean Communication" in coaching. In this enlightening and far reaching discussion, Ulf makes the case that clean language is truly an essential coaching skill, and also talks about the dangers of what can happen without it. Ulf Sandstrom is a humanitarian working in the Peaceful Heart Network using tapping and Havening to relieve trauma in post-conflict areas like Rwanda, Congo and other vulnerable populations. He is a colleague hypnotist, NLPer and musician, and good friend. Reach Ulf or find out more at www.ulfsandstrom.com www.peacefulheart.se www.Havening.se

April is Poetry Month and today we explore the connections between poetry and a hypnotic therapy script - and how YOU can use BOTH in Coaching.

I share several poems in this episode and read some sample Trance Scripts to illustrate the similarities.

One poem I read is by David Whyte who's website is www.davidwhyte.com.

Another is by E. E. Cummings (1894–1962)

Another poem I read comes to us courtesy of the poet Julie Flanders. Julie is also a founding member of the band "October Project" and writes all of their lyrics and sings in the band.

Julie is posting a new poem everyday this month on the October Project's Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/octoberproject/

They are also sponsoring their 6th annual poetry contest.
