Case Studies [1]
The coaching case study I am bringing forward concerns a male entrepreneur based in Cameroon, central Africa. His father is the classical “boss”, solution-driven, fix-minded, goal-focused, task-oriented, and no emotions allowed. He is involved in the international trade of Pineapples. The coachee has his own pineapple juice business.
The coachee realised after almost two years how being self-employed involved several aspects that he was not aware of before. Having to deal and handle with a multitude of aspects from production to sales and deliveries, from marketing to employment, and so on. Fast forward, he ended up in the hospital for two days because of overwhelming tasks, anxiety and lack of positivity. He decided to undertake coaching rather than therapy (cultural advantage for coaching over therapy).
The first session has been settled with the aim to identify what was creating those overwhelming feelings and where, in his opinion, we had to work to smoothen them. He mentioned a lack of persistence, discipline, and perseverance. We did set overcoming these feelings as the goal for the whole coaching experience/ process.
I did foresee positive psychology coaching (PPC) alongside cognitive behavioural coaching (CBC) as the most suitable approach for this case. We started with the viacharacter strengths profile test. It generated the first dialogue concerning his own natural strengths and how those specific strengths might have been overused or underused in his own real-life examples.
Sessions number two and three focused on Discovering, Dream, Design, and Deliver (Best possible future self) and the dialogue focused on: How his main strengths [appropriately used] can be applied for the achievement of that ideal future dreamt. During the chat, we recognise what the real blockage was: He was feeling the pressure of having to act entrepreneurially as his father rather than act as he believed was right, i.e. with a less tyrannical attitude but being more friendly wit
