Standard Coaching
Generically, a coach is someone who enters into a skilful, intimate, developmental role with a ‘coachee’ – an individual or group – over time. Coaching may include some or all aspects of the following; witnessing, validation, positive psychology, mentoring, training, practise, education, emotional and psychological support, motivation, visioning, alignment, inspiration and transformation. A coach may also have a particular training, expertise, process, knowledge base, or experience to teach within a particular field of endeavour or niche, for example business, relationships, wellness, or spirituality, or they may be a ‘generalist’ Life Coach.
The standard Coaching skill sets were developed to help people function better in themselves and in the world. Standard Coaching usually focuses on particular, chosen aspects of personal development, transformation and success, towards a future which it is assumed will be better than the present, in a world which is fundamentally stable and eternal.
Deep Adaptation Coaching
Deep Adaptation starts with the recognition of immanent and unfolding environmental and social collapse at global scale.
A discovery of the facts of external global collapse often has an intense or catastrophic internal impact. Collapse awareness may trigger a sudden personal crisis where reality and meaning can dissolve overnight, or a longer transformational process which can extend over a long period of time.
Collapse awareness is often characterised by degrees of grief, reluctance, fear, avoidance, denial and perceptions of a world in which ‘success’ and ‘progress’ now seem meaningless, and a future which is precarious, dangerous and frightening. It may also provoke loneliness or isolation when family, peers, colleagues are not able to share or understand the crisis. Beyond grief, Deep Adaptation implies a need to reconnect with meaning, self, soul, spirit, and nature and developmental processes linked to resilience and community, all of which coaching may help help with.
A Deep Adaptation coach will enter into a facilitative role with aspects of this process of deep change that comes with collapse awareness. Many Deep Adaptation coaches will bring aspects of other training and developmental practises into their coaching process. it would be expected that coaches are gaining competencies to usefully facilitate aspects of these unprecedented processes for others.
Some coaches may have a structured programme or process, others may work adaptively and spontaneously to meet the needs and wishes of the coachee or group. Some coaches work online, others face to face.
Any coach will be framing their practise through a particular worldview, and level of personal and professional development, which a coachee should enquire into. Does the coach speak your language, and speak to whatever you need help, guidance, support and development with? There should be a ‘chemistry’ between coach and coachee, the right coach is the one you want to work with, who ‘rings bells’ and can speak directly to whatever aspect of Deep Adaptation you need help and support with.
