Secondary Objectives:
Participants will be able to:
Module 1: Coaching Foundations. Module 1 explores the coaching relationship, coaching skills and mindsets, ethics, and ICF core competencies. The focus is on bringing to the student’s awareness the tendency in developmental conversations to problem solve and give advice. By the end of Module 1, students will be aware of how coaching is distinct from these conversations and become self-aware of their habitual patterns of communication.
Module 2: Reactive to Creative. Module 2 deepens the learning and application, introducing more skills and coaching concepts, such as Values, Purpose and Self-Limiting Beliefs, Perspectives and Choice. Students learn how to apply the coaching skills to these concepts, culminating in being proficient in coaching the “Reactive to Creative Journey”, a coaching roadmap that integrates all the various skills and concepts.
Module 3: Presence and Integration. Module 3 focuses on coaching when clients are experiencing emotions that are blocked. Students develop their capacity to be with client’s emotions, creating safety and spaciousness for clients to express themselves and move forward. In Module 3 we also help students to develop their coaching range, becoming more agile in applying different coaching styles, based on the client’s needs.
