Your coachee is feeling threatened by your expertise. How can you address their resistance effectively?
As a coach or mentor, you may encounter a situation where your coachee feels intimidated by your expertise. This can lead to resistance, a natural human reaction when faced with perceived threats to one's competence or autonomy. Your role is to guide them through this discomfort, helping them to understand that your expertise is not a threat but a resource for their growth. The key is to approach this resistance with empathy, patience, and strategic communication.
