Ep 385: Golden Rules for Coaching: Wisdom with Alex Verlek

Join us for an enlightening conversation with Alex Verlek, a dedicated Dutch coach who has spent the last two decades transforming lives through coaching. Alex shares his fascinating journey into the coaching world, which began unexpectedly when a manager suggested it as a career path after his previous project concluded. With a background in management and HR, Alex quickly found his calling and became a faculty member for the Coach's Training Institute. He explains his passion for the Co-Active Coaching model, which encourages clients to discover their true desires and values, ultimately empowering them to become larger than the challenges they face. His work spans the globe, offering insights into how coaching transcends cultural and language barriers, making it a universal tool for personal growth.

Listen in as we explore the transformative power of coaching and self-awareness, especially in leadership roles. Through compelling examples, such as a CEO who shifted from managing to truly leading, Alex illustrates the universal nature of leadership and how everyone can be a leader in different aspects of life. We also touch on Alex's books, "Golden Rules for Coaching" and "Q60," which provide foundational lessons and answers to common questions within the coaching profession. Learn about the importance of mutual commitment in coaching relationships and how Alex's work primarily through Zoom offers flexibility and accessibility for his clients. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in personal growth, leadership, and the art of coaching.
