108: Why Coaches Should Focus on Relationships, Primary Emotions and Vision

Richard Boyatzis, Distinguished University Professor in Organizational Behaviour, Psychology and Cognitive Science, joins our host George Warren for this insightful conversation about how coaching needs to focus on the bigger dreams and visions of clients instead of goals.

Richard shares his research-based knowledge on the power of resonant relationships, compassion, mindfulness, playfulness and spirituality as we navigate the current perma-crisis we are in and learn why effective coaching and leadership work with primary emotions such as hope and caring. He challenges the coaching world to examine if their current methods are producing the results, we think they are and asks us to think more holistically – towards ourselves and our clients.

“Relationships are the context for everything we do”
