This virtual coach training is accredited by the ICF with 12 CCEU (Continuing Coach Education Units) and your certificate will reflect the hours you attend. It is designed for coaches who have already completed an accredited/approved coach training programme. Although focusing on how we can embody a coaching mindset we will be covering other core competencies along the way. So…

What would it take for each of us to know and feel like we belonged? Accepted for who we are and how we show up. Being wholeheartedly included in all the systems we are connected to. Imagine being in this place for yourself and what that would mean for you. What could become possible from your strengths and skills standing in this place of being seen, heard, respected, and valued?

Coaching, through the lens of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), stands for humanity flourishing yet how do we flourish as coaches unless we are competent and comfortable appreciating our own self-awareness and cultural identity.

This virtual coach training offers an introspection into who the coach is and their responsibility & accountability for upholding the potential impact for making a profound difference in the conversations we have.

The coach training will include and is not exclusive to:

• Personal preparation before, during and after coaching
• Describing Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Social Justice and Belonging
• Being aware of intent and impact
• Deepening insights from Compassion & Mindfulness
• Being aware of conscious and unconscious bias
• Notice our blind spots and how this might make a difference to our coaching relationships
• Developing a shared common language from which to have safe/respectful/challenging discussions on:
  • Ethnicity / Racial / Cultural ID
  • Levels of Oppression > from individual to institutional/national
  • Privilege

There will be an iterative process to these specific subjects to deepen the level of learning, understanding, sharing, and coaching practicing.  If we, as coaches, can have these conversations for ourselves it amplifies and accelerates the dialogue, we might have with our clients to advance social system change and ultimately humanity thriving.
