How does behavioral psychology and humanistic philosophy combine to help us tackle our most stubborn change management problems?
Behavioral extinction - how it occurs and why it occurs and most importantly - how to make it occur is central to any change process.
What does all this science mean to life coaches, mentors and counselors? It means if you are going to truly help your clients, you have to understand what is holding them back and how to help them overcome these obstacles.
This section contains the lecture notes and additional resources to help you further your learning.
The job of a coach or a manager, is to help someone who is rational and wants to change, learn how to actually do that by helping them to overcome their instinctual responses so that they can change. The science of how behaviors are shaped and molded, behavioral conditioning techniques known as operant conditioning, is really useful knowledge for a coach or manager.
This course explores the science of how behaviors are changed and how we can use that to help the people we mentor and coach to actually change their behavior so they can succeed in whatever it is they want to do. The course consists of a set of video lesson with lecture notes for reference.
