This week, experienced coach, coach trainer, and Shakespeare enthusiast Emily Walker joins Claire at The Coaching Inn after they had had an earlier conversation about the sound of coaching.  If dissonance and resonance matter in coaching, and if Shakespeare uses them well, what more useful stuff is there for us to learn as coaches?

They explore the connection between coaching and Shakespeare's use of dissonance and resonance in his work. They also touch on the importance of metaphors, the role of deception, and the journey towards coaching maturity.
