So I felt great about our training.I checked in daily, and I was comforted to see it was not just an impression of mine :)On the final day, I was happy to see that on a scale from 1 to 10, where 10 was meeting all their learning goals, beyond their wildest expectations, and 1 the opposite of that, they rated themselves to be 8.5 or more (some at 8.5, others at 10) on that scale.I was particularly impressed by a distinction made by one of…See More

Clients are the Experts
Here is a short story that very well illustrates why I love Solution-Focus Coaching and its magic in bringing out clients’ expertise.
My Coaching Client is the Administration Manager for a small but fast-growing company, and we are having a Coaching session over Skype.
Topic of the session: he wants his co-workers to be “more motivated“.
I know that the concept of “motivation” is a tricky one.
Personally I am very…

- Hi Paolo,
Actually I already editid the whole video and
I think its 14 minutes and 680 MB.
So it is also to big for youtube. And I wouldn't want to
upload it there because some of the people I interviewed might not
want to be on that site.
I'll try to find out if i can make it smaller somehow.
I think Peter has a program to make movies smaller so they fit on
his iPod but i don't now wether the qualaty would be really good then.
Well I'll see! thanks for your help!!
cheers, Tabea

- Hey Paolo!
Yes I hope so too!
The scenes in the bars will probably be pretty dark though!
Its too bad I didn't interview you! But there were so many people!
Maybe an other time!
greetings from switzerland!
