I am learning about social medial. The following blog is based on ten tweets I left on Twitter in the last week. They are powerful, profound, and very useful to anyone interested in coaching, leadership transformation, or creating high performance organizations.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP # 1 Coaching takes place in the domain of accomplishment, not therapy.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #2 Start with an IMPOSSIBLE FUTURE, not a homogenized leadership competency list.

MASTERFUL COACHING Tip #3 Leverage the power of questions: What do you want to achieve that looks impossible that, if it could be achieved, would change everything?

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #4 Go for an Impossible Vision or Big Game, then secure early wins that build personal credibility and momentum.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #5 Set visionary goals, then create three reasonable goals that are achievable and measurable and can be connected to the bottom line.

MASTERFUL COACHING Tip #6 Have a “teachable point of view.” Don’t be afraid to give your opinion.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #7 Give people the gift of your presence. Draw out: listen to their story. Listen for what will get them in trouble.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #8 Transform the person, not the behavior.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #9 People transform when they distinguish themselves from their history. Suddenly they have the freedom to be who they need to be.

MASTERFUL COACHING TIP #10 Help people break the grip and excel beyond their winning strategy. What got you here, won’t get you there.
