How to begin a company blog? Perhaps with what’s important to us: Better results for, with, and through people, both in the workplace and beyond the organization’s walls. Perhaps why this is important to us: Accomplishing better results for, with, and through people is the same as accomplishing good.
Our company mission is to enable thinking better, together, to create healthier lives, healthier organizations, and a healthier world. It’s about accomplishing good things, and there’s a formula for good that guides us.
Totally Coached, Inc. is the founder of a new support methodology called Intrinsic Coaching®, which is based on the powerful formula, I > E > S. It guides our thinking; Intrinsic Coaching™ is “Thinking better. Together.™”
Accomplishing better results for, with, and through people, for the workplace and beyond, by way of thinking better, together, to accomplish goals, for healthier lives, healthier organizations, and a healthier world…how good is that?
Who promotes this? Intrinsic Coach® coaches.
While Intrinsic Coaching® is new, the science behind it is well established. It demonstrates that when it comes to thinking better, together, I > E > S is a fact; approaching what’s Intrinsic as being more important than what’s Extrinsic and approaching what’s Extrinsic as being more important than what’s Systemic gets better results for, with, and through people.
What does this mean? A lot. It means getting our priorities straight so thinking better, together, becomes possible. It means maximizing resources and increasing strategies for accomplishing results.
Intrinsic, Extrinsic, Systemic? In plain language:
Intrinsic is the realm of uniqueness and the unlimited variability of people.
Extrinsic is the realm of practicalities and the material and social world.
Systemic is the realm of ideas, as with rules, shoulds, and oughts.
Of course, there is more.
Who studies and applies this? Intrinsic Coach® coaches.
I > E > S is a basic science with measurable impact. Where does it come from? Quantum physics, quantum calculus, and Dr. Robert S. Hartman, the founder of the science of Axiology.
Axiology, the science, originated when the young man, Robert Hartman, witnessed organized evil and responded by launching a search to organize good. First, he had to find the answer to an important question: What is good?
From the young man who witnessed evil, Hartman went on to become a lawyer, then a judge, a philosopher, and, finally, a mathematical scientist devoted to the science of thinking so mathematically accurate that it’s the only science of human behavior resembling a natural science, like physics, rather than a social science, like psychology.
Hartman, nominated for the Nobel Prize for his work, launched the basic science of thinking on which the discipline of Intrinsic Coaching® is based.
Intrinsic Coaching® opens up and gives details to the intrinsic dimension of thinking,
making the practice of I>E>S accessible, replicable, and natural in everyday life. What is the drive and spirit behind this? In part, the search by Christina Marshall, founder of Intrinsic Coaching®, for something simple that, if people could only know, would cause such a profound result that suffering that didn't need to be wouldn't be.
Given what we know of an interconnected universe, is it any wonder that quantum physics and quantum calculus should emerge as the supporting structure for a philosophy, then a science, and, now, a coaching methodology for good?
And that its application would be accessible, replicable, measurable, and benefit anyone, from clerk to CEO and from one part of the world to any other?
Let's make it real:
Have you ever been scolded for making a mistake? Did it make you feel stupid…embarrassed…like you were suddenly less than you were a moment before? Unfortunately, it’s happened to all of us.
Did it help? Did it make you more careful? Did it make you a better person? Of course not. It was behavior influenced by S > E > I and it isn’t what anyone wants; what's in charge is an idea that you have to be perfect (S) to “get it right” (E) and that “it” counts more than you (I). When S > E > I happens, you, a person with a lot to offer in that very moment, don’t count and aren’t figured into the equation of getting good results.
Think about it this way: Organizations run by S > E > I thinking severely diminish their resources and strategies for accomplishing good outcomes.
At the Steve Young Desert Classic fundraiser, a single contributor ($1.5 million) was to receive an award – a collage set behind glass with a beautifully polished dark wooden frame, around 2 1/2’ X 3’, not an insignificant size. A young man of 16 was asked to present the award and to hold it until it was time to present. Standing outside, waiting for the right time to enter the building, the 16 year old got distracted and the wooden frame hit the cement sidewalk. Hearing the thud, a representative of the recipient organization walked over to the young man, engaged him with eye contact, smiled, and said, “Hey...you’re scarin’ me.” She glanced at the award and went back to what she was doing. The you ng man then held the award more carefully by resting it on top of his sneakers.
A simple story about I > E > S. Can you see it?
And, it’s measurable.
Sincerely,
Christina Marshall, Founder, Totally Coached, Inc. & the Intrinsic Coaching® methodology
