A one-day workshop (virtual or classroom)
In this workshop, we offer you a challenge to move away from CPD (Continuing Professional Development) to CPPD (Continuing Professional & Personal Development) to focus more on how we are being rather than what we are doing with our clients. We invite you to consider that developing your capacity for complexity and sitting with uncertainty, i.e. upgrading your system, underpins a deepening of our practice. The work we all need to be doing is the ongoing personal work on self.
Learning Objectives
- Understanding coach development
- Developing self-awareness
- Possible blind spots and biases in your coaching approach
