LDP Community Inquiry

Three times a year the community gathers online to engage in collaborative inquiry around a topic or area of interest brought to the community by members of the community. We welcome not only authorised users of the Leadership Development Profile but anyone who has an interest in adult development. The intent is to provide a regular co-created space for like-minded people to hang out together and deepen our individual and collective inquiry process on topics that feel important and of interest to us. You may come regularly, pop in sometimes or join us for a one-off topic that engages you.

Our next session will be Sitting with what is with Eileen Woodford on 26 June, 8-10am (UK time)

Once upon a time there was a little pup, and when it came to his first autumn and all the leaves began blowing around, he had such fun chasing them and each night fell fast asleep after a wonderful day. This continued that year but when the second autumn came around and the leaves began blowing, he chased them once or twice and then totally ignored them from then on each year. What had changed – the leaves or the dog?

What do we see and engage with until we no longer can?

Isn’t it interesting that when working with clients and they discuss challenges they may have and can’t see a way to resolve them, that through coaching they may realise the answer or resource was available to them all along …… it was so obvious or constantly present that they no longer noticed it? They were “sitting with what is”.

How many times in life – work and personal, does this happen to us? Through familiarity we no longer see or notice things, traits, resources (internal to self and/or external) – we are “sitting with what is”.

In this inquiry we would like to invite you to consider:

• What is your 'is’?
• What will bring it more into view?
• Do you think that looking at and acknowledging it can help us expand our meaning-making?
• What developmental work would you as a coach take in at this point, if any, with your client?
• How would your client be best placed to approach this?
• Could this also occur in a system?
