Benefits of ReciproCoach mentoring

 

The benefits for mentoring for both mentees and mentors are well documented (Ehrich, Hansford & Tennent, 2002).

Having another coach listen to you coach and give you feedback allows you to:

• Refine and develop your skills


• Identify and capitalise on your strengths


• Identify and overcome your weaknesses


• Learn new and different approaches to familiar situations


• Hear something different from what you actually heard


• Identify blackholes in your coaching


• Prepare for formal certification


• Deepen your confidence
  
  

Many coaches make the mistake of handing over their best coaching session to a mentor, however to optimise learning, we challenge ReciproCoaches to hand over their worst coaching sessions and benefit from the rich feedback to follow!

As a double bonus, having ReciproCoach mentor means you receive the mentoring in exchange for giving mentoring. With this kind of reciprocal coaching, you get the added benefits of mentoring another coach - a process which can sometimes result in more learning than being mentored yourself! As a mentor to another coach, you have the opportunity to:

• deepen your understanding of coaching process as you learn by teaching, a recognised means of effective learning rise to the challenge of mentoring another coach


• surprise yourself by how much knowledge and experience you have to share


• learn to give coaching feedback and act as a mentor


• expand your confidence as a coach


• expand and deepen your coaching networks


• have a friendship circle of coaches


• give back to the coaching community by supporting a fellow coach
