Systemic coaching is a term that’s become increasingly familiar, but what does it actually mean?

In this article, I will explore not only the basics of systemic coaching, but also how it can help you achieve your goals. Systemic coaching is a results-oriented method that aims to bring about change. It assumes that problems rarely arise in isolation, rather, they stem from intricate interactions within a system. Consequently, systemic coaching doesn’t just focus on the individual but also considers their environment, relationships, and the dynamics within these contexts. Its key focus lies in understanding and addressing the interactions within the system.

The benefits of systemic coaching are manifold:

1. Holistic approach:

By examining the entire system, systemic coaching not only tackles symptoms but also delves into the root causes of issues. This approach enables the discovery of sustainable, long-term solutions.

2. Focus on resources and solutions:

Systemic coaching focuses on identifying and utilizing the resources and strengths of a system to bring about positive change. Instead of focusing on deficits, we will develop solutions that build on your existing skills.

3. Expanding your scope for action:

Coaching endeavors to cultivate fresh perspectives and avenues for action. The view from the outside can help to reflect and rethink thought patterns. This makes it possible to overcome deadlocked situations and find other solutions.

Conclusion:

Systemic coaching offers an effective way of bringing about change by focusing on the interactions within a system. This is just as true for organizations as it is for individuals. As a coach, I want to work with the client to examine the potential impact of any changes on the client’s professional and private environment and accompany the change process. By taking a holistic approach, focusing on resources and solutions and expanding the scope for action, systemic coaching makes it possible to bring about positive change.
