WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION:
 
"Coaching without Purpose - the Importance of Space in Coaching "

  led by Aboodi Shabi PCC
 
Description of the workshop:

Coaching is about helping our clients get results. Isn't it?
 
Well, yes, of course it is. But ... when we become over-focused on results, we miss the opportunities to explore beneath the surface, to listen to what 'gold' there might be waiting to emerge.
 
During this experiential session, we will be exploring how to use silence and space to make our coaching much deeper and more effective by letting go of our focus on results, and getting more present with our coachees and to their true concerns and dreams.
 
 
Learning Outcomes: 
 
           · Deepening our capacity to fully listen to our coachees
           · Expanding listening beyond words
           · Holding space without purpose, to allow new insights to emerge
           · Learning how to create deeper connections with our coachees
