Editor's Notes
- LFYS is a good Intake Assessment for new coacheesBut our purpose today is to look at you & your leadership styleAnd see what that says about your coaching styleWHO HAS READ YOUR LFYS REPORT?LFYS is built upon the old DiSC inventoryOnly with quite a bit more research behind itJohn Trent – authorDiSC went into the public domain in the mid-1950’sMeans there are many different versions of the DiSCSome have some great research behind them – others don’tLFYS has literally tens of thousands of inventories taken that support the typologies4 basic types (Lion, Otter, Golden Retriever & Beaver) (corresponding with DiSC)60 plot points on the wheelOver 19,000 individualized descriptions
- Hi “L” or “O” or “G” or “B” is how far to the right (toward +10) you plotLo “L” or “O” or “G” or “B” is how far to the left (toward -10) you plotINFIELDERS - Aggressive, quick on feet, charge the ballOUTFIELDERS - Slower, size-up the situation first, wait for the ball, back up, Infielders & Outfielders use different strategiesIt isn’t important how YOU would solve the problem – Help the coachee figure out how THEY would solve the problem - you are not the Super Hero of Solving Problems-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------TAKE OUT SHEET OF PAPER -write your name as you would normally -switch pen to other hand – write name again (cursive)Natural Strength is like your dominant hand - this is how you like to do it & how you do it best -but…in a crunch you can do it differently-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Any strength can become a limitation if used to the extreme or used inappropriately
- Optimists are FarsightedRealists are NearsightedOptimists label Realists as “Pessimists”Realists accuse Optimists of living in a dream worldImagine what this looks like if your coachee is on a staff/team with both Optimists need to invite Realists into conversationOptimists Realists-tend to trust information -Need to validate information (will ask validating questions)-trusts quickly -must earn their trust-tends to present ideas w/ feelings -Wants facts (can shut down w/o them)God placed Optimists in the relationship to see the VisionAnd Realists to see the StepsWhat does this tell you about coaching?
- Dynamic people are good “starters”Predictable people are good “finishers”This is about learning how to pass the baton (i.e. starters vs. finishers)PREDICTABLE DYNAMIC-need to know how change will impact them-when they drop the ball – likely feel like failure - when they drop the ball they can blow it off/ignore it-likes slower predictable environment so they can finish – likes faster environment to start many projects-Delegation is hard-Plan things outHow can you imagine this impacting your coaching?
- PIONEER STRUCTURED-doing something is better than nothing -don’t want to do something poorly or wrong-Rules/procedures are obstacles -rules/procedures provide protection-asks for forgiveness -asks for permission-sees Many Ways to do something -sees One Way-Accepts risk in accomplishing something -Avoids risk in accomplishing something
- Explain Energy line
- Take a look at your own movement chart - pg 17Stressors:Cross Energy LineMove more than 5 degrees
- DISCUSS AROUND TABLE:How have you seen these styles in yourself?How have you seen them in your coachees?How can these insights impact your coaching?DEBRIEF
- The goal is to understand and work well with others.It is easy recognize how others can annoy us, but the goal is… to understand our own behaviors and how they cause anxiety in others.AND…learn to adjust our behavior to reduce others’ stress & increase effective communication

- Picnic – Church Announcement example:Act out how each of the behavior types would do an announcementO - “We are so excited to announce an awesome opportunity to have a great time with everyone. We’re having a picnic!! And it’s going to be amazing! Don’ t miss it, next Sunday. We want to see everyone there!G – “We’re having a church family picnic next Sunday after worship. It will be a wonderful opportunity to get to spend some time with your brothers & sisters in Christ and get to know some people you may not yet have met.”L – “There is a picnic next Sunday after worship. Be there!”B – Next Sunday, October 19 we will be hosting a church-wide picnic on the church grounds. It will start immediately after worship is concluded and end precisely at 2pm. The church will provide the drinks and condiments but we ask that each family bring enough food to feed your family plus 2 more people.
- How to manage:L’s: Agree upon the goal - “What results do you want?” – “How will you measure?” – then get out of their way.O’s: are difficult to manage one-on-one. The best way is an a group- because they care what they look like. If they commit to the group, they will do it.Gs: Spend time together with them – will take several attempts to help process them .B’s with tracks, timelines or milestones. Be willing to invest time and details.
