Conclusion
Through all the work we've done, the stories we've heard, and the
new stories we've helped executives discover, we've learned a couple
of key principles:
Development is mostly about adding to, not taking away. We help
people add more awareness to their daily lives, to notice when the
story they are living in is not working, and to shift to another
more powerful story.
Development is a conversation - a long conversation. We learn how
to change our old stories and habits slowly over time and only with
a sustained effort, a small discipline of noticing, imaging, and
reframing. Coaches are there to help keep the conversation alive.
