Handling Stressful Situations

Suggested Strategy: Dig down with your questions to reach the source or

triggers of your coaching target’s stress during a conversation or

interaction.

Suggested Questions:

→ Rating Question: On a scale of one to six, with six being you handle

stressful situations with ease, and one being you find yourself struggling

to handle stress in a conversation, where would you rate yourself and

why? What actions can you take together to reach a six?

→ Third-Party Question: What do you think your teammates’ confidence

would be in having you take over a conversation with one of their

clients? Do you think you would have the skill to keep the relationship

between that client and your peer positive through your conversation

with them and how would you exhibit that skill?

→ Self-Actualized Question: What things in a conversation might cause

you to become stressed or have a negative attitude? How can you

positively handle those curveballs?
