Program Description: 

Join us immediately following our Chapter program to learn how transformative coaching begins from the moment the client shares their story at the start of each session. This narrative contains amazing gems that are often overlooked as we listen for just enough to “start coaching.” Are you new to coaching or an experienced veteran? There is something to gain here for every stage of your coaching journey.

We’ll explore how our own mindset becomes the filter that influences what we are able to hear and do with the narrative. We’ll learn how to listen beyond and beneath what is being said and reflect transformative insights that source from the client, not the coach. We’ll discover neural networks which types of questions engage early aha moments and which keep the client in surface actions.

This workshop combines instruction, interaction, and practice activities so you will be ready to take what you’ve learned out into the world.

Program Outcomes:

During this engaging discussion, participants will:

• Cultivate a transformative mindset vs a transactional mindset
• Tap into the power of silence during the narrative
• Discover strategies for listening beneath the surface
• Gain levels of powerful, client-based observation
• Learn brain networks: DMN vs TPN Qs for awareness
