Unlocking Thinking with Visual Expressive Coaching Tools with Andrea Giraldez-Hayes, Anna Sheather and Julie Flower

“The unlocking and quickness of the process – that really catches people by surprise.”

Our informative, inspiring podcast series on Coaching Tools and Approaches comes to a close this week with this fantastic panel chat. Our host, Claudia Day, is in conversation with Coaching Psychologist, Supervisor, and Lecturer, Dr. Andrea Giraldez-Hayes; art-based Executive Coach and Trainer, Anna Sheather and Leadership Coach and Tutor using improvisation, Julie Flower, about the use of visual and expressive creative coaching approaches.

They each share how they integrate their different approaches such as art, mark-making, improvisation, photography, objects and music to create a powerful and impactful coaching experience for their clients. Learn why and when they use these approaches and how they contract and maintain psychological safety, as well as the research and benefits expressed by clients. This conversation invites coaches to be brave, experience and experiment with creative tools and de-bunks the idea you have to be an artist to be a creative coach.
