Workshop summary
Certificated by the Association for Coaching, this short programme will be delivered in response to expressed need (either F2F training or an Online Blended Learning experience).
• F2F – two full days with 3-4 weeks between sessions.
• Online - 6 weekly x 1.5 hour zoom calls, backed up by access to supporting materials on the Acorn Principle virtual learning environment (VLE).
Over the duration of the course, we will be exploring what coaching is and what it is not, sharing experiences of coaching and exploring of how this approach differs from other supporting roles – such as mentoring or counselling.
We will be engaging with the coaching approach through skills awareness and practice and deepen our understanding of the underpinning principles.
On a practical basis, we will introduce a coaching conversational tool that provides a useful structure for working effectively with individuals and groups. Participants will have opportunities to try out the tools shared.
We work on the principle of reflection on action – drawing out the learning from the gap between each session and how participants are applying their learning.
We will explore effective applications of the coaching approaches – in personal contexts and in the workplace – and signpost participants toward becoming reflective practice, leaning more into reflection in action.
Throughout the course we will engage in coaching conversations to embed the learning, further develop coaching competence and introduce some useful tools, tips and techniques for use in the workplace and beyond.
