When coaching executives it is important at times to have them “see things” from different perspectives. Otherwise, they are trapped in their own experience and learned ways of engaging. One way to support this is to have them view the same phenomenon through the lenses of their various roles. What roles? Well they could be the ones suggested either by the Notre Dame program or by the Integral Leadership model offered in the series of articles. Or they could be another set of roles more specific to that executive’s context. Have the executive choose the framework that works best for his or her.
