Thank you for joining. What information stood out and how might you use that in your day to day?

Hello from Tokyo! I visited Turkey briefly last year - I want to go back!

Yes! I hope you can feel my passion for coaching!

Thank you for joining! What are you taking away from the webinar?

I think it's important to understand what the role of conflict is in your team. As a systems coach, I like to think of conflict as an ally - it is telling us that something is trying to change, trying to emerge. If we can harness that need for the system to evolve in a productive way then we can use the power of conflict to more forward. you might also look at the ORSC concept of "Team Toxins" as this is about how people react unskillfully in conflict. As to your second question, it's funny how strongly I feel about the concept of "Too emotional" - the emotion isn't good or bad, people might express it in a way that is not helpful but I always try to bring curiosity and compassion. What is going on that led to this expression? What am I not seeing? That is not to say we can accept inappropriate behaviour in the office but also to realise if someone is what you thik is "too emotional" there is an underlying trigger that may be able to support growth in the team... but first we might need to take the heat out!

@@IkigaiwithJenniferShinkaithanks a lot Coach Jennifer, it is very superb usefull 👍👍👍

Great question! On a theoretical level, I recommend taking the Harvard implicit bias test available online and in many languages and for many types of bias. You might be surprised about what types of bias you have - so the first step is awareness. Then finding more evidence and experiencing other ways of life that challenge your bias or belief - realising that there are many ways to experience life and that your way is not the only way or the "common sense way" can also open up your mind. I also love the simple idea or #flipittotestit - you can find the ted talk about the topic - the focus is gender bias but it is a good way to check in with yourself and see if you might be coming from a place of bias - eg would I have said or done this in the same way if the other person was (a different identity). And just be kind to yourself - there are over 180 known cognitive biases and bias and Systems 1 thinking does help us in many ways to make it through the day!

@@IkigaiwithJenniferShinkaithank you coach Jennifer for sharing your perspectives and suggestion

This could be a whole separate webinar and I suggest you take a look at my KZfaq channel interviews to hear over 50 people's interpretation of Ikigai. The well known 4 part venn diagram (What do you love? good at? can be paid for? world need?) is a super career coaching tool but it is not what most Japanese people think of as 生きがい　ーthis is something more personal and about a feeling in the moment or an outlook on life. So a lot of my work is to help people find more moments where they feel ikigai, to have more hope for the future, and a feeling of mattering to someone or something. Check out the Ikigai-9 assessment for another way to consider ikigai if you would like a measurement.

Thank you for the insights given Coach Jennifer

Mindfulness can really help - developing the awareness between the trigger and the response rather than the reaction. Allowing the time to choose. Also curiosity - what is happening in my body now? What am I making this mean? What else is it telling me? Try not to judge the emotion - it's just information - not good or bad but data.

@@IkigaiwithJenniferShinkaithank you coach Jennifer, mindfulness is a big key take away for me

Whilst coaching can support mental wellbeing in terms of gaining new perspectives and understanding what your personal values and goals are or what beliefs might be limiting you at this time, it is not a replacement for therapy, counselling or medication which may be required for a mental health situation. I think it is important to know that coaching is one option but not the only one and not always the right one.

This one I leave to the team @apo!

@@IkigaiwithJenniferShinkaithank you

Ikigai is well known as a framework for career coaching due to a Western interpretation putting the word "ikigai" on a purpose Venn Diagram. However, Japanese researcher show that it is something closer to a lived experience with feelings and sources of Ikigai. To your question about guiding the team to set a goal, I have a lot of follow up questions! Is the goal setting about a collective goal or individual goals? How has the team set and achieved goals in the past? What is working? What is not? What is the culture of the team when it comes to goal setting - are they looking for direction from the top or a collaborative grass roots process? As the leader understanding the motivations and beliefs of yourself and your team when it comes to goals, is the first step.

Thank you for inviting me! I had a great time in your studio with Gozde.
