"Not all conflict is bad," says Amy Dufrane, EdD, CEO of HRCI.

When people talk through a tough thing at work, hearing each other out can actually make a big difference in how it feels.

The skill is in the listening, which is something coaches and HR both know well.

Amy and our CEO Magdalena Nowicka Mook dig into that, plus AI and the future of work.

🗓️ Join us for the conversation, streaming live on Facebook Thursday, June 25 at 11 a.m. (New York).

"Leadership brand" is one of those phrases that sounds soft until you realize it's the whole game.

It's how people experience you under pressure, over time.

At EY, the leaders who got coaching saw exactly that shift. 👇 And it's the kind of change a single course or training can rarely create.

So often, the thing standing between someone and their next move is simply clarity.

Once you can see what's really driving a decision, the next step tends to get a lot more obvious.

When did seeing something clearly change what you did next?

Many people still ask: can coaching over a screen really feel personal?

For a lot of clients, the answer isn't just yes. Sometimes, it's even more so, because they can do it from the comfort of their own space.

If you had to name one coaching skill that matters more now than it did five years ago, what would it be?

Ever feel stuck and can't quite explain why?

Dorothy did. Then one coaching session changed how she viewed everything.

Working with coach Decimar Ogutu, ACC, she wrote down everything weighing on her, stepped back, and finally saw the full picture.

That clarity led her back to a passion she'd forgotten and into a whole new chapter. 🏡

The longer you coach, the easier it is to walk into a session assuming you've heard it all before.

But then your client says something that reframes your conversation, and you remember you're still learning too.

The beautiful thing about coaching is that it's work that keeps teaching you, session after session, as long as you stay open to it.

When did a client last teach you something you didn't expect?

AI can ask a question, but a coach can hear what wasn't said.

It's the heart of the work, and it's a big difference why human coaching can't be replaced. Click through for a few more. 👇

Self-awareness isn't a trait some people are simply born with.

It's a practice that tends to deepen when someone helps you see your own blind spots.

What's helped you understand yourself more clearly?
