This week I was inspired by the story of a former coachee. Moving on independently following a coaching session with a horse, he discovered over a period of time that an assumed obstruction actually turned out the be a quality he possessed. It became clear that in some situations this behaviour did not work well, but at other times it did. I suggested for him to map out this quality in Daniel Ofman’s core quadrant to clarify why at some times this characteristic was so useful at times but at other times felt like an obstruction. Where is the mis-alignment and how can you regain the balance?
