She\u2019s very accommodating and at times in the office she takes too much on because her tendency is to say yes.\u00a0 This is very indicative of a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/seomartin-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pleaser<\/a> personality.<\/p>\n<p>Beth also loves football, participating in triathlons, and having valuable playtime with her children. \u00a0In the office whenever a huge milestone was met, or for birthdays or special occasions, she is the first one to bake a celebratory cake or offer to make plans for the team to go out to lunch to celebrate these milestones. \u00a0At home she arranges football parties or a children\u2019s day-out with her friends to celebrate her team\u2019s victory or her children\u2019s successes at school. These indicate a Celebrator personality.<\/p>\n<p>My <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/training\/certified-professional-coach\/program-overview.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">coach training<\/a> at CCC prepared me to recognize these personality traits both when coaching and also with friends and co-workers.\u00a0 This aided me tremendously in having a better <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/3000903\/how-manage-thinkers-and-feelers-effectively\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">understanding<\/a> of what they\u2019re saying, feeling, and their likes, dislikes, and their goals. With Beth I know to be calm when she is a Pleaser and be energetic when she is a Celebrator.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Pete Liska https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/peteliska\/ My previous blogs I discussed personality types, examples of these personality types, and coaching different personality types.\u00a0 I will continue examples &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7448,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[131,470,40],"tags":[464,116,119,465,278,114,77,48,85,45,50,86,655,1548,118,466,1547,1592,463,462,115,134,117,1550,1348,79,260,1549],"class_list":["post-7338","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-coaching-program","category-coaching-resources","category-tools-and-techniques","tag-business-coach-certification","tag-business-coach-training","tag-career-coach-certification","tag-career-coach-training","tag-center-for-coaching-certification","tag-certified-professional-coach","tag-client","tag-coach","tag-coach-training","tag-coaches","tag-coaching","tag-coaching-certification","tag-cpc","tag-different","tag-executive-coach-certification","tag-executive-coach-training","tag-flexing","tag-flexing-to-different-people","tag-health-coach-certification","tag-health-coach-training","tag-icf-approved-coach-training","tag-life-coach-training","tag-life-coaching-certification","tag-milestone","tag-people","tag-skills","tag-training","tag-workers","latest_post"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7338","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7338"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7338\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9191,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7338\/revisions\/9191"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7338"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7338"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.coachcert.com\/coachingblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7338"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
