I?m also delighted with how well the latest addition to my coaching toolkit is being taken up by clients. Motivational Map technology is really helping my them ?unstick? themselves, whether it be a required breakthrough in their leadership style, or with making key career and business decisions. The maps are also great fun to work with and in 99.9 per cent of folks, uncannily accurate.
? dig those shoulder pads!
? the original audience in 1992!
In early January preparations were underway to film the sequel to the production ?Colour of Love? filmed by the Southampton Black and Asian Video Panel back in 1992 where I facilitated a studio debate on the issues and challenges of being in mixed heritage relationships. It was a real ?eye-opener? to revisit the original footage ? oh, those early ?90s colours. Iconic memories!
? London skies and towers
I?m very pleased to say that I?ve commenced an interesting relationship with Acuity Coaching Ltd who provide a managed service to global multi-nationals for the sourcing and management of exec coaches. They are keen to work with me on a number of ideas I have; happily it?s a two-way deal as I?ve already secured senior coaching clients through them.
Following up on conversations with like-minded leaders and clients, I?ve started to work on a model of authentic leadership, with Acuity?s support, looking at what?s really involved in helping managers and senior leaders develop and maintain authentic behaviours ? you can read my initial thoughts here.
As an addicted ?learner?, going to regular events is part of keeping up my professional skills as a coach, so at the end of January I hot-footed it to a very tired looking Bournemouth for a mini-conference on the use of Motivational Maps. It was my first time with other ?mappers? apart from the entertaining Steve Jones who trained me ? he put on a sparkling presentation that was useful revision.
Thankfully I was able to get to grips with the garden during the short spell of dry weather at the end of January, and been managing to ride out 2-3 times a week ? dodging the odd avalanche of sleet, hail and blobby snow. I give thanks for a lively but trustworthy horse that keeps me physically and mentally on my toes.
? the eclectic sights of London!
Early February saw me delivering a keynote entitled ?From Survival to Career Success? at the Environment Agency?s BAME Women and Leadership Conference in Westminster. I always love my winter trips to London when the capital looks fabulous in the murky light and despite losing my way a bit, followed a coach and pair clattering past ? only to arrive safe and sound at the right venue!
During my presentation, I was able to share some top tips for building a more successful career, including pushing one?s boundaries, maintaining a focus and having a plan, and becoming more self-aware. Later in the afternoon I ran a short workshop on Motivational Maps explaining just how our energies affect our performance at work and in business. This gave the packed room a taster of just how the maps work, and how they can apply the insights gained.
Continuing along the theme of regular high quality CPD, I was delighted on 19 February to spend an enjoyable lunch and half a day in Romsey with friends Leslie Spiers of Boardroom Dynamics and Paul Fox of Merryhill Envirotec. Leslie took us through our paces as we revised on the duties and responsibilities of Board members including those codified in the Companies Act of 2006 for both exec and non-exec directors. Sounds a bit ?dry? but being just the 3 of us, we were able to exchanged anecdotes and experiences that just added to the fun.
March has been even busier what with new coaching clients coming on stream, facilitating viewings on Holly House in order to sell it, and having lessons on a potential new Reiner, the Sternberg?s 5yo Sail A Spook (aka Scarlett). Getting to know and trust another horse at my age is another real ?eye-opener?; I don?t feel like hanging up my western spurs just yet as I so love the sport as well as being part of the reining fraternity.
The evening was opened by Vice-Chancellor, Van Gore and Southampton?s very own Black History Month ?mastermind?, Don John ? with the studio discussion facilitated by me. It was a successful and at times, a hilarious evening ? fingers crossed it will make enjoyable viewing. Omar and Craig David also contributed their thoughts on the topic, Colour of Love, and will be featured in the final film? watch this space.
