From Kegan The fundamental move of adult development Taking what we are “subject to” (meaning what
we can’t see because we are inside of it, unaware, like the fish can’t see the pond)
And making it “object” (meaning we place it
- utside of ourselves, we can witness and
- bserve it, we can see it in context)
SEEING: recognizing that all our views are
subjective, and that we can choose our maps at will (produces clarity)
BEING: cultivating mastery over our inner
state (produces resilience)
DOING: acting in each moment to create
the conditions for what we intend. (produces wise action)
Stepping back to witness:

“Subject to” Seeing
We accept our maps as
trustworthy
We see the world
through rose-colored glasses, think it’s pink
We see the world
through the distinctions
becomes knowable
Seeing is Object
We see that a map is a
representation, and “not the territory”
We see the glasses and
that they shape how we see the world
We see the map itself as
a distinction, and the world as mysterious and complex

and steps
Authority: representative of licensing agency Partner: connecting with plant execs

SLIDE 8 Introduction to Presence-Based Coaching IAFNA; Atlanta, GA April 12, 2008 8
“The last of the human freedoms is to choose one’s own attitude in any given set of circumstances.”
“Subject to” Being
We are “inside” our
experience, and don’t have perspective on it.
Our attention reacts to
phenomena and triggers; our inner state depends on our context
Our commitments are
unconscious and unquestioned
Being is Object
We track our experience
and can describe it.
We de-link our state
from the context, and choose in each moment what to attend to
Our commitments are
chosen purposefully, and arise from what we care about

Introduction to Presence-Based Coaching IAFNA; Atlanta, GA April 12, 2008 9
“Subject to” Doing
Actions have an urgency
and future focus; we are already “down the road”
Actions arise
spontaneously from an unregulated state
We take actions with
narrow focus and a belief that our actions cause desired results
Doing is Object
We act in the spacious
present moment, knowing it’s all we get
We practice states that
naturally give rise to the actions we intend
We are conscious of our
leadership presence, and that our state is always evoking a future
Seeing
Explore how client is seeing the situation Identify client’s default maps, and revealing
alternatives
Build capacity to shift perspectives/views quickly
Being
Include state cultivation practices in coaching Design specific practices that build desired states Explore what states are supportive, and practice

doesn’t have control over

awareness of body, others, and context

you intend
