UNIT CONTENT ▼
1: THE PRACTICE OF COACHING CLIENTS
Explore the processes of building trust, coaching agreements, coaching packages and build your coaching presence, authenticity and courage to stand up for your clients growth process. You'll deep dive into the role of calmness, positive regard, intuition and humility.
2. RUNNING SESSIONS
Setting up sessions is an integral part of an effective coaching session. Inviting the client to share their concern, exploring the process of resolving it and what this means to them in achieving their desired outcome are essential in each session. You'll build skills in active listening, curiosity-led questioning, holding space for clients, and using permission to develop sessions. Importantly, you'll become adept at celebrating client successes which are pivotal in continued growth of a purposeful and meaningful life.
3. BRING THE SESSION TO A CLOSE
Closing a session is just as meaningful as any other part of a session. In this part of a session coaches explore obstacles to implementing the outcomes the client has arrived at, what resources may be needed, how the outcomes can be evaluated in following sessions. You'll be skilful in inviting clients to bring their session to a close.
4. FOLLOW-UP SESSIONS AND BEYOND
Follow-up sessions are often overlooked in coach training, and given they are often very different from initial sessions it can leave some new coaches struggling to find their flow. We will look closely at how to conduct follow-up sessions so they build on where the partnership is, plus how to refer clients to other practitioners, coaching duty of care and obligations, how to find clients and how to build your clientele.
You quite simply will learn to coach the person, rather than just the problem.
