Group Coaching Intensive: July 12 - 13: 15 Take-Aways


I am looking forward to leading the next two day in-person Group Coaching Intensive in beautiful Huntsville, Muskoka, Canada on July 12-13, 2012. The program will be of interest to both coaches who are looking to add group coaching to their offerings, or want to deepen their skills and practice in group coaching.  The program is approved by the ICF for 15 CCEs (including 13 hrs of core competencies, and 2 hours of business development)
 
15 things you’ll learn, or take-away from the Group Coaching Intensive: 

  1. What group coaching is and how it is different and similar to workshops, retreats and individual coaching
  2. Essential skills for group coaching and how you stack up
  3. Key issues in group dynamics
  4. Tools for designing your own group coaching programs, whether in person
  5. Key considerations for Knowing Your Client
  6. Essential components in opening, closing a session and keeping the flow
  7. Core exercises and tools for group coaching
  8. How to create actions, assignments and accountability to take your clients to the next how
  9. New group coach stretch points, pitfalls and how to avoid them
  10. Designing Virtual Programs – Phone, Web, Key considerations when going virtual
  11. Corporate considerations – positioning group coaching, connections with other initiatives
  12. Evaluating your programs
  13. Pricing your group coaching work
  14. Developing a marketing strategy for promoting your work – social media and traditional media
  15. Tricky Issues – how to avoid them, and what to do if they happen

And two of the most valuable things coaches have indicated from their experience with the Intensive – the ability to have their specific questions answered in the small group intensive, the opportunity to connect with other coaches, and practice and feedback!

Today, May 15th, is the last day to benefit from the Early Bird rate of $775 CDN (plus HST). Pricing will increase to $950 (plus HST) tomorrow. Take advantage of the early bird pricing. Included in your registration are the 15 hrs of training, a copy of Effective Group Coaching, a group follow up call after the event, and your own physical Group Coaching Toolkit to take forward with your work. A special accommodation room rate is being arranged for coaches attending.

The program will be held in beautiful Huntsville, Muskoka, CANADA. Take a look at what Muskoka has to offer - it's a great excuse for making this a family holiday! Muskoka was voted as a top summer destination last year by National Geographic.


Spaces are limited as this is a hands-on learning experience.

I hope that you will join me this summer in beautiful Muskoka! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Warm regards
Jennifer
