Introduction to Coaching

Welcome

Hello and welcome to our 1-day Introduction to Coaching.

Join Colin Brett, Founder, and Director of Training, who facilitates these free learning days online. Please select which day you'd like to attend and we’ll reserve and confirm a space for you.

This day may be a good investment of your time if:

• You’re curious about what coaching actually is
• You’ve never tried it before, but would like to
• You want to transform your career or change direction
• Coach training would be an augment to your current skillset/role
• Coaching is an approach you'd like to bring into your current organisation
• You’d like to gain a practical understanding of what coaching is and how to do it
• An opportunity to explore our approach to training would be useful

What does the day offer?

It’s a day-long experiential opportunity for you to explore coaching in a safe, engaged environment. You will leave with a clear understanding of what coaching is and isn't; how it sits along-side the other talking modalities; what it would be like to train with us, and whether professional coach training is for you.

During the day we will work through topics such as:

• Contracting
• Core Competencies (as set down by the International Coaching Federation)
• Comparisons between Formal and Informal Coaching
• Definitions (as set down by the International Coaching Federation)
• Practice Sessions (am and pm for comparison)
• Live Coaching Demonstration Feedback Session
• Levels of Listening
• Questioning
• Q&A Session
• and more..!

Why Free?

We recognise that signing up to a coach training involves work, time, effort, energy, finance and commitment. We thought an opportunity to join us for a day would be valuable in the decision-making process and this approach is how, generally, we support and partner with our students during their time with us on coach training and CPD. Although the majority of those joining will be exploring training options, these days are also about ‘coach education’; for those who are curious about what it is and what it isn’t…
