In this episode, Katie Churchman talks with CRR Global faculty member Stephen Burke about the importance of pre-framing. Pre-framing involves considering the lens through which we look before stepping into a conversation, meeting, or project. In this conversation, we explore how pre-framing can help systems workers and their clients navigate conflict, change, and uncertainty. Whether we are delivering difficult news or providing feedback, how might the way we frame the conversation help us to positively influence the emotional field.

What you’ll gain from this episode:

  • Awareness around the power and importance of pre-framing in coaching
  • Strategies for shifting the lenses we look through
  • An understanding of the impact of unconscious energy
  • Tools for consciously thinking about how you want to ‘BE’ in any given situation 
  • Appreciation of the importance of metaskills and conscious and intentional impact


Stephen Burke is a teaching faculty member for CRR Global’s Organization and Relationship Systems Coaching (ORSC) training. He combines deep corporate experience, knowledge of startup and innovation processes, and extensive global executive and team coaching and leadership development experience to develop leaders and startup teams globally. An Aerospace Engineer who also holds a master’s degree in Mindfulness studies and holds the ICFs PCC and ACTC certifications. British by birth, German by naturalization and a US permanent resident, Stephen considers himself a citizen of the world and has worked globally. 

For over 20 years, CRR Global has accompanied leaders, teams, and practitioners on their journey to build stronger relationships by focusing on the relationship itself, not only the individuals occupying it. This leads to a community of changemakers around the world. Supported by a global network of Faculty and Partners, we connect, inspire, and equip change agents to shift systems, one relationship at a time

We believe Relationship Matters, from humanity to nature, to the larger whole.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
