How might OTTO change my coaching practice in the long run?
Integrating OTTO into your coaching practice isn’t just about adding a new tool—it gradually reshapes the way you engage with clients, with inquiry, and even with your own role as a coach. Over time, this shift may deepen the self-less nature of coaching, bringing a more open, dynamic quality to your practice.
Long-Term Shifts OTTO Might Bring
- Less mental effort, more presence – With OTTO handling structured inquiry, you may find yourself more available to simply be with clients, without needing to generate the next question.
- A deeper trust in not-knowing – As OTTO introduces unexpected angles, it reinforces a coaching approach that isn’t about having answers but about holding space for unfolding discovery.
- More independent clients – Clients may start engaging more deeply with inquiry on their own, allowing coaching sessions to focus on reflection rather than initiating exploration.
- An evolving role as a coach – Rather than being the primary source of inquiry, you may find yourself acting more as a witness, a guide in integration, and a space-holder for what arises.
What This Means for Your Practice
- Sessions may feel lighter, yet more profound – Less effort in steering the conversation can lead to a more natural flow of insight.
- You may attract clients drawn to deep self-inquiry – Those who resonate with open-ended exploration might engage more fully in coaching.
- Your own inquiry may continue to evolve – Working with OTTO may challenge and refine how you engage with your own unfolding process.
Rather than replacing anything, OTTO has the potential to shift coaching toward a more fluid, inquiry-driven process—one that invites both you and your clients into deeper presence and exploration.
