My dissertation work was on social regulation and social decentering, a concept that has been used in marriage counseling, which is building a mental model of another person's thinking. Operationalizing and articulating those mental models, reflecting them back to the coachee can be so helpful!
I think getting better at social decentering might be something that could improve the world... Give us more empathy, help us see one another's perspectives more clearly... Such important listening work!
