Join us as we welcome back David Drake, Founder and CEO of The Moment Institute onto the podcast after 3 years, for a profound exploration of the power of narrative practice in coaching and personal development. As the pioneer and founder of narrative coaching space for 25 years, David has taught this work to over 20,000 practitioners in over 40 countries.
David has worked with 70 organisations, including ARM, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, Dropbox, Google, Logitech, Nike, PwC, and many government agencies. He is a key Advisor for Ovida, an AI-informed start-up that accelerates the development of better communication skills for coaches, leaders and others. They are using his work to create an end-to-end development solution, and he serves as a Concierge for their larger users to support the changes they seek.
This conversation is a journey through the relationship between storytelling and coaching, where David shares his insights on the non-verbal dimensions of storytelling and how an observant eye can dramatically enhance our coaching skills. A personal anecdote about family connection through shared experiences underlines the important role of framing questions to unearth deeply held narratives.
Tune in to this episode to learn the latest advancements in narrative coaching and how they’re shaping the future of the coaching field.
