Putting the Toolkit to Work

Cristina Bianchi and Maureen Steele

Chapter Chapter 7 in Coaching for Innovation, 2014, pp 120-135 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Throughout Part I, by stepping into a coaching role to drive innovation, you have unconsciously started to coach yourself and improved the key behaviours that innovators have in common. In this chapter, you will find out more about what happens to ideas once they have been generated. You will discover that: When you self-coach, you ask yourself the same powerful questions that you would ask of others and push yourself to generate more ideas and options, thus becoming more innovative. The investigation of ideas benefits from a framework to screen, inquire about, filter and test the feasibility of the options so that an informed decision can be made about what to do next. When you step into a coaching role and change your communication style, you must manage the transition by letting others know what is happening.
