Hi Graham,
Over the year I have used several 360s, generally, they were branded by the corporation. While they can be useful I think they can be misleading when coachees read them as lab results (engineers tend to do that 😂). 360s are good as a starting point of conversation and it’s up to the coach to create curiosity rather than judgment, intrigue rather than fear.
Having a choice I would look for one that allows you to see the disaggregated data. I am working with one rig…

Thanks so much Ilaria Vilkelis for taking the time to provide this detailed and helpful response.
I tend to start with a structure for the interviews, but then deviate off course as the question flows, then regret it later when I have less structure in my notes!
-
I think we all do that when we are in flow! We get caught in the content and let go of the structure. The potential issue is unconsciously leading the witness to the answer you already know or expect. I remember a training where they taught us to stick to just repeating the last word of the interviewee without any affect as the only way to move the conversation forward. We were told it was used in advertising where you don’t want to stir the consumer one way or another to exactly understan…

That’s a nice tip, I learned something similar in a negotiation training class. Thanks again!

So we’re a month away from the next Collective Shelf discussion session – this time focusing on Unchartered by Margaret Heffernan.
How are we all finding this book so far? Personally, I’m taking it slowly and savouring the points it makes. So far, my favourite bit has been the points raised on memory in Chapter 2. The idea that our unreliable memories don’t need to be a negative, instead can be seen to help us be more creative and flexible is an interesting one to explore and I’m looking forward to seeing how that plays out during the rest of the book!
This time around I’m listening to/reading it via Audible and then recapping using the paperback. It’s been helpful to keep me more focused on the ideas being raised and elaborate in my notes about how I think the points could help myself and the wider community.
So how have you found it so far? And how are you reading it?

I’m about 1/3 way through. I think some of the points are really interesting e.g. using history as a predictor of future behaviour but it’s not really coming together as a book yet. It seems to make half a point and then move onto something else.
-
I totally get that, Pete. I’m hoping that it’ll be more of a case of first third is putting the ideas out there, second third is connecting them to how we move forward, and last third on how it can power change proactively…let’s see!

Hey everyone!
I’m just into Part 2: ’What would you do if you were free’
It’s been a decent read so far, lots of ideas thrown around! Many of these I am agreeable on, but some a little bifurcating.
One example I’m pondering is the Automation paradox (GPS vs Maps) which is true, but what relevance does that have in 2022?
I’m enjoying it greatly, the world is indeed infinitely more complex than we give it credit for, and we should proceed with cur…

Thank you for this take on it, Jake – it’s really interesting to use these books to not only question what we’re creating our careers but also in the wider world. The discussion this month will be excellent, I know.

I’m finally into it and enjoying the theme of how misleading it is to simplify forecasting. It brings together some really interesting concepts although I agree it hasn’t started to tie them together yet

I’ve re-read it and got different things out the second time around so looking forward to the discussion. I notice that they’ve changed the subtitle on the paperback version. The hardback version has ’Time and How to Use It’. Definitely reflects the book better.
