Sonja Robinson is passionate about the virtues and benefits of peer coaching. In this interview, it’s apparent why.

She takes us through the process of this kind of coaching and how to create a safe, confidential, and empowering space that builds trust and excitement and in which participants find solutions to real problems together.

In addition to exploring what in detail this powerful yet relatively short process has to offer we also discuss the effect of effective peer coaching.

Peer coaching leads to actions (solutions) and measurable results. And in terms of the future, it increases authentic dialog in the culture making it a real learning community.

Sonja finished our conversation with this Buddhist quote:

“Be still as a mountain and flow like a great river”.

Please listen and enjoy!
