Coaching does not have to be pure conversation. As a coach I often ask people to draw, culture and doodle. The activities that are placed in the document, I may use during a session. I often ask  clients to work on these outside of the session and bring the results and insights gained to a follow on coaching session. There are a whole range of coaching tools that I use and these are just some. If appropriate I also use 360 degree feedback or psychometric assessments.

Coaching Tools Index

• Mind Mapping (p.2): How to use mind mapping in coaching sessions.
• Force field diagram (p.3): A technique to visualise the drivers and restrainers of a change a person being coaching is trying to make.
• Rich Picture (p.5): A visual coaching method that gets people to draw out a situation.
• Two by Two Matrix (p.7): A whole series of 2×2′s that are useful in coaching.
• Coaching Circle (p.10): A prioritisation and goal setting tool. Often called “circle of life” by life coaches.
• Cosmos Clarity Indicator (p.13): This helps people focus on what they can control and / or influence rather than worry about everything else out there in the greater cosmos.
• Strengths Sorter (p.15): A card sort activity that asks people to consider what there strengths are so they can focus more on using their great abilities rather than worrying about building up “weaknesses”.
• Team Template (p.20): A team coaching template that you can use to visually work with teams to develop clarity around vision, mission and team strengths.
• Values Sorter (p.22): An activity that asks people to examine what is important to them in work and life.

The RSA team in the US have developed a range of 15+ videos that are worth looking at here.

Here is my current favourite:

Visualisation in my work:

Visual Facilitation:

Whilst my drawing skill is not up to this level, I work regularly with a network of graphic scribes from all over Europe who are able to produce videos like theses or scribe live at conferences or meetings. My graphic facilitation work is with pre-prepared templates that I then use to focus and drive the conversations that matter. Visual Facilitation is a key way of creating shared understanding and alignment.

Visual Training:

Where copyright permits, I look to bring in interesting perspectives on topics, with resources like these in my training sessions.

Visual Coaching:

Visual coaching plays a part of my coaching work. I often ask my clients to draw out, using simple drawings, the situation they are facing and what success would look like.
