Coaching with Rob McGregor, SageAdvizors
In coaching together, you will experience a judgement free, safe space. I will offer the same empathy to coaching clients that I have shared with my patients over my 40 years of clinical practice. As a pediatrician, I have developed a variety of relational and interpersonal skills that are centered on empathy and empowerment. From partnering with first time parents developing confidence parenting their first child to supporting adolescents who are sharing the challenges they face with their physical changes, in every patient interaction, my primary goal was to provide a safe space to explore and overcome the challenges of life and health. I bring the same level of care and compassion to the coaching relationship.
My coaching philosophy focuses on playing to your strengths. Having stated that, with 40 years of experience in the medical field in multiple domains, I recognize that there are times where while docs want to leverage their strengths, they also have times where they want to minimize a weakness. In coaching, I assume that you come willingly and are whole, capable, and resourceful. Like most physicians, I have been trained to quickly triage and offer a fix or next step. This is not how I approach coaching. Instead, I approach coaching by embracing the evidence supporting that you, as the client, have the best solutions or plans but rarely have found the safe space to reflect or discover these solutions. Whether the hurdle is derived from negative self-talk or saboteurs, blind spots may be blocking your forward progress, and a safe space is all you need to explore these areas. What I value is not necessarily what you value, so we will typically begin with a value assessment and alignment exercise as I get to know you. With you as a whole, capable, and resourceful client exploring in a safe setting, we can leverage your values to fuel your growth together.
