I am now in the role of coach and my focus is on the team’s learning. Can you therefore direct your question to the problem presenter and/or your team members?

When I change from the participant role to Action Learning Coach, I would review & restate the actions of my role as the coach; ask if anyone has questions; I would move the place where I was sitting (move out of the participant circle); and ask the team member to direct the question to the problem presenter and/or a team member.

I would say that my role now is that of Action Learning Coach and as such I am not involved in the problem, rather enhancing the performance and learning of the group. I would then ask ‘who could you direct your question to?’

I would suggest that my role is to focus on the learning of the group, and would ask whether there’s a member of the group that he/she would like to address that question to?

I will thank you for the question and explain again my role now is a Action Learning Coach and will focus on team learning and performance. Then, I will invite the person to open the question to the group as a whole or a specific member as he/she think appropriate. There might be case that if the problem the individual ask is very technical and seems like i am the only person who know the answer or provide additional information, I might make a pause and let the group know my role now is to provide further information before I explain. But still I am not giving answer to the problem, only provide additional information to help the process.

Acknowledge the question. Tell the member that you are serving as an Action Learning Coach. Use the following questions as a learning intervention:
Team, could you explain to me what’s the difference of my role as an action learning coach versus a member? What’s the impact if I answer that problem related question? What do you think should we do?
Thank their responses and remind about the remaining time. Ask the team: Who has the next question?

我会回答说，我现在是团队coach，并报以微笑。你可以向团队或某个成员发问。

I will ask a question to the team:”The member has just raised a good question. Does any partner want to respond?”

I would say kindly but clearly “My role has changed from participant to Action Learning coach. I cannot participate in solving the problem. Would you please direct your question to the team?”

As an Action Learning Coach, I would intervene with the following question: What is my role as an Action Learning Coach?
Another possible question to follow if necessary would be: How important is it for me to stay in my role?

I would remind the group of my new role as the Action Learning Coach which is not to solve the problem, but to coach the group to address the problem using the methodology, learn during the process and reflect on what they are learning.
I would then ask the participant if he/she would like to pose the question to the group.
