Coaching tool: Sphere of Influence

The sphere of influence is a coaching tool that helps to gain clarity and offers a greater sense of control and autonomy over life. It also cultivates proactivity and empowerment.

The purpose of this tool is to identify what you or your client have direct control over, where you can have influence, and what is completely out of your control and influence.

When to use it?

When you feel overwhelmed, stressed, or anxious about a moment or a sphere of your life.

Examples:

• during a career change, when you feel anxious about the situation
• you'd like to improve your work and life balance
• you are getting ready for an important examination and feel worried

The tool can also be used for a specific area of personal or working life.
