Right at the beginning of the coaching or teamcoaching.

I which part of the sessions do you use it most? I think it could be very good to use when you have had a few sessions.<br /><br />Best regards<br />KennethAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827848259105430080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3736206030583291586.post-47117067339471341532014-02-27T23:38:52.412+01:002014-02-27T23:38:52.412+01:00Hi Kenneth,
You are right, that is a difference....Hi Kenneth, <br /><br />You are right, that is a difference.so what is outside of the outer circle may be of different categories such as: 1) don't want to, 2) don't have to, 3) not able, etc. This is interesting to reflect on some more. <br /><br />In the case of my client, by the way, the interesting case was that his beliefs about his abilities changed as we worked. What happened in this case was that I helped a student during three long sessions on three successive days to prepare for his math exam which he had flunked before. On this exam his graduation depended. <br /><br />During these three days his sense of competence grew step by step. A few (but not all) of the things which had originally hanged outside of the outer circle ended up in the inner circle after all. At the end of the three days, the day before his exam would take place there were lots of notes in the inner circle. A small minority of the notes were still in the outer circle and (I believe) there were still two outside of the outer circle. Looking at the circle I felt convinced he would achieve the highest possible score but that he would certainly pass the exam. And he did. <br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Coert<br />Coert Visserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11552925891306427065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3736206030583291586.post-58675950595456811452014-02-27T22:15:19.221+01:002014-02-27T22:15:19.221+01:00Hi Coert!

The first guy you mention, told that he did not believe, he can be able to achieve it. The last teacher placed the post-it notes outside because she did not have to achieve it. I see a little difference between these two ways to use the exercise. In the first example it is BELIEVE and the other it is DON'T HAVE TO. I think the coaching process is a little bit different afterwards the exercise. Thanks for great blog! <br />KennethAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08827848259105430080noreply@blogger.com
