One oft-used phrase across social media is attributed to the late social activist and philosopher Mahatma Gandhi: "Be the change you wish to see in the world." Interestingly, amid the cacophony of noise that perpetually bombards society today, the most resonant voices are the gentle reminders to be kind, be empathetic, and be a friend to those in need, just as Gandhi counseled many decades ago. In the coaching sphere, practicing empathy and kindness is essential to being a valued coach and colleague. Putting the coach's hat on yourself can give you a great start to greater self-awareness and, eventually, results.
