Program Description

Module 1 (Day 1): Mastering the Foundations of Effective Coaching

In this intensive first day, participants will immerse themselves in the core foundations of coaching excellence.
They will not only learn the theory, but actively practice and embody the essential competencies and mindsets that distinguish impactful coaches.

Key Focus Areas:

• Understanding the psychology and neuroscience of coaching: why coaching transforms behavior and thinking.
• Distinguishing between coaching, mentoring, managing, and consulting — and when to apply each.
• Deep dive into the Core Coaching Competencies (trust building, presence, active listening, powerful questioning, creating awareness, and fostering accountability).
• Learning and practicing structured coaching conversations using proven models (e.g., GROW Model and advanced adaptations).
• Building the inner stance of a coach: emotional regulation, humility, curiosity, and resilience.

Methodology:

• Short theoretical bursts followed by immediate practice.
• Triad simulations (Coach-Coachee-Observer rotation).
• Real-world cases and debriefs.
• Facilitated peer feedback to accelerate skill development.

By the end of Module 1, participants will confidently structure and run a real coaching conversation, applying foundational skills that can immediately be integrated into leadership and workplace interactions.

 

Module 2 (Day 2): Expanding Coaching Impact — Contexts, Challenges, and Professionalization

Building on the foundation of Day 1, the second day focuses on strategically applying coaching skills across diverse contexts, handling complex coaching challenges, and exploring the path to professional coaching for those who seek it.

Key Focus Areas:

• Coaching for Performance: Enhancing team productivity, accountability, and motivation without micromanagement.
• Coaching for Conflict and Difficult Conversations: Using coaching skills to mediate, resolve tensions, and foster understanding.
• Coaching for Innovation and Change: Unlocking new thinking patterns, creativity, and adaptability in teams.
• Embedding Coaching into Leadership: Moving from "doing" coaching to "being" a coaching-centered leader.
• Exploring Coaching as a Profession:
• Overview of professional coaching certifications (ICF, EMCC, etc.).
• How to start building a coaching portfolio.
• Ethical considerations and maintaining coaching integrity.
• Positioning yourself as a coach within or beyond your organization.

Methodology:

• Simulation labs across different coaching contexts.
• Critical incidents: participants will coach each other through real-world leadership dilemmas.
• Reflective journaling on coaching challenges and strengths.
• Personal strategic plan: How to embed coaching into career and leadership journey.

By the end of Module 2, participants will have a clear roadmap on how to integrate coaching into their leadership style — and, if desired, how to take their coaching skills to the next level professionally.
