Coaching Conversations in 2025
Coaching Conversations with Tim Hagen, where we teach leaders and managers how to coach their employees. This is the ideal podcast for leaders, managers, and aspiring leaders to improve their coaching and leadership skills to create a more positive coaching culture within their teams.
In 2025, we're doing weekly podcasts on various coaching topics and strategies that will rotate throughout the month, as opposed to 2024 where the weekly episodes featured a monthly theme. Coaching Conversations will continue to have four episodes per month and we're going to sprinkle in masterclasses, which will be lengthier, workshop-style formats.
We also invite you to join the new FREE e-publication, the Workplace Coaching Times founded by Tim Hagen. This weekly newsletter contains expert insights on coaching strategies on specific topics like sales coaching, leading with empathy, and self-awareness techniques, and much more. We're a community of leaders, managers and coaches transforming workplace challenges into coaching victories—one conversation at a time. Subscribe here: https://coachingtimes.beehiiv.com/subscribe

The cadence of coaching is getting really interesting. More and more tools are coming out that allow us to have what I call asynchronous conversations. Now we happen to use two tools. One is Profi Software, the other one is Clarity Flow. Clarity Flow has incredible service, as does Profi. What I love about their service is you can get a response, you can have a conversation of how to use their software, and what they're really doing is they're practicing what they preach. They're using their software in the way they intend their learners, their users, to use the software. So Kat, who's a head of their customer service, does a wonderful job. I feel like I have a relationship with her because she goes on video, sends me an audio, I send her a video, I send an audio and I feel connected to her and she does a great job.
Speaker 1:See, often when we're coaching, we think we always have to be in front of people. See, cadence coaching is about creating a cadence of coaching that doesn't always rely if, quite frankly, never relies on the calendar. See a lot of times when we think about well, I got to be back in front of people, I want to get back with the team, especially with the pandemic. What we're really subscribing to is we want to feel connected to people. Yet you know what's really funny, our business absolutely blossomed because of our business absolutely blossomed because of the pandemic. Why? Because what was essentially occurring is that I could put people in breakout rooms. We could get connected on a regular basis versus having to attend an all-day training, and there's a greater cadence now with our clients of practice and case study work and looking in the mirror and thinking, what can I do to improve as a coach, whereas before that they would fly me out and say, well, you know, what can I do to improve as a coach, whereas before that they would fly me out and say, well, you know, we've got three days, let's load up the three days with workshops, and training only lasts so long.
Speaker 1:So the cadence of coaching can be sending in audio, with updates once a week. It could be sending questions via video. It could be sending a screenshot. It could be attaching an article saying what's your impression of this article. How would this help you? How would you leverage the content, the components of this article or this video to assist you in your leadership or your endeavor for your career? That's coaching. So, if we remember, coaching at its most fundamental basis is asking questions and helping people self-discover. We do not have to be in the same room for that to happen, so think about investing in some tools that allow you to have ongoing dialogue that doesn't require you to block out 20 to 30 minutes because you've got to block out that time because we're on each other's calendars.
