Here's how you can infuse strategic thinking into your daily practice as a personal coaching professional.

Having a routine and structure is important, and some will find creating this structure easier than others! Allow time for business and admin duties and also time for creative thinking and spontaneity. Some may even find it helpful to schedule in breaks! For example, I do not coach back-to-back if I can help it; I allow 10-15 minutes between each session to create notes and also to stretch, take a bio break, and go outside for a minute if the weather permits. Doing so keeps me fresh and focussed for what's next on my list.

La reflexión diaria es importante, en mi caso el mejor tiempo para pensar sobre los objetivos es apenas despierto, no haber hablado con nadie, me da el tiempo de pensar más en mi enfoque y las acciones a desarrollar durante el día. Pero, si tengo un momento para reflexionar con una situación específica lo hago, es mejor analizar las cosas en el momento presente. También, tomarlo como práctica nocturna, sería buenísimo como reflexión diaria.

Infusing strategic thinking into your daily practice as a personal coaching professional can significantly enhance the effectiveness of your services. One powerful way to do this is by setting clear intentions for each coaching session and client interaction. By defining specific goals, outcomes, and strategies before engaging with your clients, you can align your actions with your long-term objectives and ensure that your coaching approach is purposeful and results-driven. Setting intentions also allows you to stay focused, organized, and proactive in addressing your clients' needs and challenges.

Las intenciones son cruciales en cualquier sesión porque están alineadas a los objetivos o meta planteada. La efectividad del desarrollo, tiene que ver con las estrategias, técnicas y pasos del entrenamiento. El disfrute del proceso de coaching motivará para que el compromiso entre coachee y coach se fortalezca.

Thinking about potential outcomes is important, AND making sure you don't spiral into unproductive thinking is important too. Some people are better problem-solvers than others - a blessing and a curse. If you find yourself on the hamster wheel of analyzing outcomes and potential problems, set a timer and the get off the wheel and move ahead. Thinking is important. Too much thinking can keep you stuck.

El pensamiento estratégico es crucial, pero se debe aclarar desde un inicio que además de aceptar la situación actual, vamos a producir unos cambios internos, que incluso nos cambiarán externamente y es por lo que también, debemos adaptarnos a nuevas estrategias para conseguir los objetivos esperados.

As an executive coach is critical to always apply strategic thinking into your work. As one who is asked to provide this insight and guidance to others, you must in turn do the same for yourself and your practice. As coaches we often must look ahead and strategically think about end results and then figure the path to get there. Strategy combined with experience and expertise helps guide us there.
