Ella Washington, Ph.D., is an organizational psychologist providing subject matter expertise to Gallup’s clients in leadership, diversity and inclusion. Ella’s research and client work focuses on women in the workplace, barriers to inclusion for diverse groups, and working with organizations to build inclusive cultures.
Today’s the topic is coaching strategies for aiming your CliftonStrengths themes. Ella has a “secret sauce” to the “aim it” part of coaching.
Two things that Ella keeps in mind:
We all have our experience and background that we see the world through
Strengths are another lens we see the world through
Strengths gives us a common language we can use to talk to diversity in a different way
Clients often aren’t sure how to talk about diversity and language
The world sees us through a lens, and our diversity is how they see us first (age, gender, race), but strengths is a way we can get the world to see who we are as an individual
Some of our themes are worn on the outside; some are internal and hard to see
During this webcast, Jacque and Ella role-played two scripted demonstrations from real coaching calls of Ella’s, then each call was unpacked.
