E77 Alignment, the key to personal change
Welcome to summer at the Change Course Podcast! As we take some time to rest and recharge our batteries, we’re bringing you a selection of episodes from our other series Change: The Conversation, in audio format. Have a wonderful summer, and we will be back with our regular format in September!
In this episode of Change: The Conversation I have the pleasure of speaking with Stephanie J. Marshall. I’m a client of Stephanie’s and a huge fan of the alignment framework, so this conversation is one for the ages. We talk about the intersection of personal and organizational change and what this all means.
So what is an alignment coach? In this episode Stephanie J. Marshall of Kickstartology introduces us to the wonderful world of alignment coaching and how it relates to personal change. Stephanie is in the business of coaching leaders through change and helping them effectively lead their teams. We talk about how an amazing transformation always starts with you, and how we can approach change from a personal perspective. We talk about why resistance and denial are normal reactions to change and how to get through them. Then, we get into who is most surprised by the emotional reactions to change. Stephanie breaks down how small shifts lead to lasting transformation and success in any change and how alignment is at the center of it all.
