Using the SWING Outcome Setting Template Start the process with this question: If the re was one thing, that if you were to c hange it, would have the greatest impact on your performance, what would it be? Specific outcome. Establish this as a specific outcome that is measurable (by the five senses) and is something to move towards achieving. Choosing an outcome that is something to not do in the future needs to be reframes, for example, “what do you want instead… ?” Establish a clearly defined, sensory outcome and check for congruence. What will I win? There must be payoffs or benefits to achieving the outcome for the individual. What are they? What will it cost? Every outcome demands some payment, occasionally, this will cost money, and it will always cost time, effort, willpower, strength and commit ment. Often you can uncover another behavioural change that is necessary before this one is viable (such as „discipline‟). Control? This establishes what the individual personally controls, and who or what else the individual needs to either control, or gain support. For example, I am able to control my temper (it is my reaction), but I am not in control of the circumstances (or people) that may trigger my temper reaction. Many people need the empathy and support of those closest to them. Any significant behavioural change, do advise clients that partners may be involved and should be informed. Now. “Step into the future, having achieved your outcome, please tell me, what you have now achieved?” Ask or prompt that this includes noticing all the sensory results identif ied above. Some clients struggle with this, prompt them with “I am now…”. Ask them to repeat the well- formed statement several times until you note congruence. Guarantee. This is a powerful series of Cartesian logic questions that force an unconscious response and ensure ecology and congruence. As the coach, when a client takes time to respond, wait. If they suggest that they do not understand, this is true. The negatively phrased questions are not processed by the conscious brain. Simply repeat the question. As many times as you have to repeat the question, repeat it. Record the responses. They may, or may not make any sense to you, or even to the individual. The response itself is not relevant here; the enforced unconscious processing is the intent. Check for congrue nce as the individual responds. Common signs are „relief‟, smiling, flushed cheeks, flushed neck, relaxed shoulders.
