April Coaching Conversation: Coaching for Character Strength
When: 4/20/2021
Character Strengths. Are you aware of your own character strengths? Your client's? What are character strengths and what do they mean? Character strengths are doorways into personal presence and awareness of one's individuality and inner well-being. Character strengths may open a wider conversation surrounding the potential of humanity and the internal goodness humans are capable of being and sharing. As coaches we may find a deeper appreciation for invoking our inner well-being and helping others invoke the same for themselves. We will explore what character strength looks like, how character strengths show up in us, and how we can help our clients discover their own character strengths. Please join me, Jonathan Powell, as we explore and discover the ideas behind character strengths within coaching.
The goals of our discussion are to:
• Define and build awareness around VIA Character Strengths (viacharacter.org)
• Affirm some of our own strengths.
• Understand a few ways to leverage our own character strengths in coaching.
• Be better able to guide our clients in evoking their own character strengths for personal and professional goal attainment.
CCEUs will be available for this program: 1 Core Competencies.
