I present to you the most effective, the most simple yet the most challenging coaching technique to majority of coaches of all levels of experience. A technique where almost all of the stage is given to the client, where the ego and the image of the coach is left outside the door and a technique that challenges the coach even more than the client. But once tackled, it opens new doors and new possible combinations in working with people. Originally a conversational technique, using the powerful means of silence, it draws out more in 5 minutes than you can imagine. Listen to the video explaining it fully and scroll down to get to know more details about it.

1. Technique Demo

Thanks to generous participants, I am able to show you how the technique looks like. This is their version of it. I invite you to practice out your version of it, with only one rule. Do not add a single new word while you practice it! I know it will be challenging, but its time for you to stretch your limits. Only after you got it and practiced it a dozen times, can you start inserting additional words and combining it with other techniques. I dare you.

2. Assignment

You don't necessarily have to have a client to practice this technique. As it is originally a conversational technique, go ahead and use it in your everyday conversations and observe what happens. Note that a needed prerequisite is rapport, meaning that you create a connection with your interlocutor before starting. So you bot feel comfortable with longer silence breaks, otherwise it will just be awkward. Good luck!
