"Coaching Mastery: Developing Yourself to Develop Your Clients"
Have you reflected on a coaching session and noticed an insight that will help you grow? Have you had an afterthought realized that you might be hampering your client's progress?
Meeting your clients' needs is critical for coaching to be successful. Working with clients can lead to new self-awareness and development-for the clients and for you as a coach. In this experiential session, we will explore a framework for coaching mastery that includes your development as a coach in order to use who you are with your clients.
We will explore how your unconscious and conscious strengths and limitations impact your client work as well as ways to develop as a coach in service of your clients.
