Many of my executive coaching clients operate in an environment that is fast paced with multiple priorities. The work is demanding and performance expectations are high. This “3 Minute Action Learning Time Out” helps them take a few moments to slow down and focus on what they learned from a situation. As a result, they can apply this learning to assist them in future scenarios.
Here are the “self coaching” action learning questions that I recommend:
1. What just happened?
2. What did I learn from this experience?
3. What would I do the same or differently next time?
4. How can I apply this insight to other situations?
What other “self coaching” questions can help you learn?

Great questions! What I have noted as we shift from talking about the challenge to reflecting on “what just happened” etc. Is that it takes some time for people to get out of the thinking patterns associated with solving to thinking patterns associated with reflection. I have found that giving people some time to shift before answering is critical. I am wondering if there are other things we can do to help shift from framing/solving to reflection?
