What Students Say
The Presents of Mind by Marilyn Atkinson, PhD
The One Hidden in Two Presents:  What's the Miracle System in Systemic Thinking?  What's the process of building spiritual process.

Logical levels work implies and supports the development of the capacity to prioritize.  Systemic NLP trainers with emphasis on "all models have their value" often don't emphasize selecting and prioritizing value effectively except through the outcome frame. 

We need to often ask the question what is even more valuable, more important in the moment;  than what I currently am doing;  and learn to do this without missing the moment. Quite a task. 

To strike a spiritual direction we need to ask this question with a deep interest in the answer.  Using logical levels sets a direction of choice among priorities. This is different from "this is good, this is bad". Observing hierarchical priorities might assist us to maintain consistency with ecological choices. Our difficulty is rigidity.  It is easy to stop with any evaluation once made. It then turns into a decision. A decision needs no more attention by the conscious mind...

Magic of Mastermind by Teresia LaRocque, MCC
 
"If you can achieve your dream alone, your dream is not big enough."
~ Teresia LaRocque, MCC
 
Hello fellow coaches,
Can you believe we're already halfway through this year? It's true! Summer is upon us, so I have a very important question for you:
 
Are you still on track to achieve the goals you set in January?
 
By this time of year, most people are more focused on getaways than breakthroughs... but the actions you take in the next 90 days can have a tremendous impact on your results for the year.
 
So I'm going to let you in on my favourite way to have the best of both worlds. If you want to get more done with less effort... if you want to take quantum leaps forward without burning yourself out... I strongly encourage you to explore the Magic of a Mastermind.

What Students Say

THE ART AND SCIENCE OF COACHING

"I believe coaching in its truest form is that ability to hold pure space for the customer without any attempt at judgement or interference, free from advice giving. Truly a "zen" like attendance only.
 
Where the processes or tools allow the customer to ride a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
 
What an enriched and enlightened discovery, when the customer creates the very answer he/she seeks, by means of their own imagination and resourcefulness.
 
Erickson College fully provides the coach with a complete package that supports the knowledge required to place every customer in the driver's seat of self discovery.
 
Thank you Erickson for standing as a leader in the coaching field with principles that put the customer first. I applaud your integrity and am proud to be an Erickson Graduate."
