[39] Coaching with an Italian Flavor
In this insightful episode of the Culture in Coaching series, we sit down with Master Certified Coach Camilla Cesari to explore how Italy’s rich cultural tapestry and experiences can help us see how culture, in general, influences any coaching relationship. By unpacking the Italian lifestyle's regional diversity, expressive communication style, and emotional depth, we shed light on culture's power over every client's context. Rather than relying on stereotypes, we emphasize the importance of approaching every client as a unique individual—while remaining sensitive to the cultural narratives that may shape their worldview.
Listeners will gain practical insights on navigating creativity, adaptability, and emotional intelligence as strengths and recognizing when those qualities might become challenges in the coaching process. This episode encourages coaches to experiment, stay curious, and see cultural differences as opportunities for learning and growth.
