Objectives | Coaching in a Thinking Environment has one goal: the independent thinking of the client. This goal sets the Thinking Environment apart from other models that rely heavily (and often subconsciously) on advice and direction from the coach. The Thinking Environment allows clients truly to think for themselves: • to go beyond dependence on the coach’s views, guidance, or analysis; and • to come up with ideas, directions, understanding and solutions for themselves that can be staggeringly accurate, imaginative, and practical. • to develop confidence in their ability to think for themselves and to understand the limitations that might be stopping them. |
Learning outcomes | A few comments from last year’s workshop: • ‘Sophie was an excellent facilitator; new ideas ; fantastic content; inspiring/useful’ • ‘A new perspective towards coaching’ • ‘A whole new perspective’ • ‘Excellent today, stimulating and informative’ • ‘Inspiring new approach to coaching which feels liberating’ • ‘A method and technique which I can’t wait to go and try out’ |
