ICF Orlando Updates

Greetings from Day 2 at the 2009 ICF Orlando Conference. I flew in late last night and am just back from a full day of sessions and events at this year's annual international conference.

Some of today's highlight's included:

  • An inspirational morning Keynote by Getrude Matshe about her life's journey, and important work with orphans from HIV/AIDS in Zimbabwe.
  • Discussions about the proposed ICF Credentialing ISO process;
  • A phenomenal presentation by Charles Feltman on Coaching to Trust. I really enjoyed Charles session which was practically focused on supporting and coaching organizations and teams on this critical issue. It seems like TRUST is a foundational issue for most client groups I am working with at the moment. Anyone else?
  • Robert Middleton's session on Marketing High End, Outcome Based Programs.

You'll see my tweets on several of these topics over at http://twitter.com/jennbritton.

I also heard great feedback on many of the other sessions today including the Aikido for Leadership as Praxis, and Karyn Greenstreet's Call to Action session this afternoon, aimed at supporting conference attendees in taking their learning forward.

If you are here in Orlando, what was your favorite session today? I'm presenting tomorrow afternoon at 2 pm and look forward to meeting many of you.

Warm regards,

Jennifer
