@sacapedu Thank you to @sacapedu and coaching colleagues for this awesome opportunity. A great topic! #CoachingPsychology

A8: More crossover is needed, to bridge any gaps. Incorporating psychology modules into coach training (and coaching modules into psychology training) with practical experience and supervision by both coaching and psychology supervisor systems (beyond 1-1) #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A7 - I believe there is a greater need to build bridges between coaching, psychology (and organisational consulting) to positively impact individuals, teams and organisations #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A6: Coaching provides a safe space for new data (emotions, thoughts, patterns, and other) to emerge and enables visibility for clients to make their own decisions and take action, where appropriate #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A5: When clients feel seen, heard and understood, they feel safe and are better equipped to access their naturally creative and intelligent resources #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A5: Clients are needing a safe space to feel seen, heard, respected, understood and loved - a place to breathe - away from the noise of the world #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A5: In my experience, there has been a significant shift from performance and goals (doing) to connection to self and others (being), which often results in better ‘doing’ #CoachingPsychology

A4 A foundational understanding of psychology allows the coach to promote sound intra & interpersonal understandings and applications. It allows for a better understanding of the complexities and subtleties of human behaviour change. #CoachingPsychology

@conroytweets Excellent point, Conroy! @conroytweets #CoachingPsychology

[Conroy Fourie @conroytweets]

A4 - An understanding of, training in, psychology sets the coach up for more effective coaching and benefit to clients. Also, the coach will be better able to assess whether the client needs to be referred to a trained psychologist/counsellor/therapist. - #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A4: Benefits of psychology in coaching that stand out are scientific research that can be practically applied and ethics in practice #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A3: Behaviour signals much about deep seated beliefs, thoughts, feelings and drivers of the human spirit and how these complex elements interact, within ourselves and with others #CoachingPsychology

[SACAP @sacapedu]

A2 Coaching is working with people's thinking, emotions & behaviours. Traditionally this is the arena of psychology. #CoachingPsychology

[Conroy Fourie @conroytweets]

A2- The intersection is there whenever a coach and client interact. The coach may not be a psychologist, but underlying the coaching work is a psychology “platform”. #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A2 - there are many intersections between coaching and psychology. A significant one is seeing humans as whole beings within their contexts #CoachingPsychology

[Colleen Leclercq @Connecteq]

A1: Positive psychology is the scientific study of human flourishing…how to thrive, not just survive #CoachingPsychology

@AdamMGrant Completely agree. How you deliver a message is often more important than the message itself.
