My boss shared something with me the other day from a leadership seminar she attended. She explained that there are eight roles that an individual can occupy.
- Manager
- Teacher
- Mentor
- Leader
- Consultant
- Facilitator/mediator
- Therapist
- Coach
She said the speaker was testifying to the importance of coaches in our lives. Whether it be someone that officially is qualified or employed as such or not, these individuals shape and guide our lives in the areas listed below.
- Life/career
- Financial
- Relationship
- Spiritual
As an exercise, list your coaches and evaluate how they have influenced your life. Then let them know how they help you, challenge you and push you to meet your potential. If you don't have coaches, think of what kind of qualities you wish that person to have and do some research in the areas you envision someone who thinks that way would educate you. It might be a good exercise in evaluating your goals and re-aligning your present choices/options to meet those goals.
