Part 4 of 4: We often think of language as descriptive but it has much more power than that. Language also has a generative process. We will reveal the power of declarations, how to notice them, their "congurency" and how to use them in a coaching session.

Supervision is a process in which coaches are supported in reflection about their practice as a professional coach by a coaching supervisor. The ICF recommends that all coaches participate in supervision, European coaching associations require supervision to maintain certification. Intervision is a supervision process among peers. Supervision aims to support coaches in ways that are restorative (e.g. self-confidence), formative (e.g. new learning and development) and normative (e.g. ethical clarity). Coaches typically leave supervision feeling resourced. This is an opportunity for you to bring forward issues that you are facing as a coach.

Ontological coaching uses the approach of observing what it means to be a human being. Epistemology, how we learn, is a component of what it means to be human. In what ways do we support or detract from our learning? How do we determine what territories we need to explore? Join us for a conversation on what learning has to do with coaching.

An effective coach balances challenge and support. Effectively challenging our clients when we observe incongruencies in what they say or do is an opportunity for them to become aware of their breakdowns. The work for the coach is to approach the client with curiosity in offering feedback. The coach strives to offer input without attachment to whether their observations will resonate or not. Come and practice these coaching moves with other coaches to improve your ability to communicate directly.

In this group session, we will coach two different participants with an eye towards exploring the courageous potential moves. What would an MCC do in this circumstance?

Moods and emotions are one of the three main categories of human experience that ontological coaches use to help clients discover their breakdowns. In this course, students will look at the distinctions between emotions and moods. They also will take a look at four basic moods – resentment, resignation, acceptance and ambition. Understanding which mood clients spend their time in helps reveal what types of actions are available.

Coaching presence that is light and gently irreverent can serve a client by helping them to see the patterns they live in may have become too small. Within the context of a trusting coaching relationship, lightness and humor gently shine a light on the breakdown – sometimes more effectively than through more direct means.

On the surface, a code of ethics is fairly straightforward. In practice, it can be messier. In this 2 hour session, we will explore real ethical dilemmas participating coaches face in their practice, using Michael Carroll’s lens of ethical maturity. This is defined as “having the reflective, rational, emotional and intuitive capacity to decide whether actions are right and wrong or good and better, having the resilience and courage to implement those decisions, being accountable for ethical decisions made (publicly or privately), and being able to learn from and live with the experience(s)” (in Erik de Haan Supervision in Action 2012).

Our somatic experience – what happens in our bodies – is as important to forming the observers we are as are our thoughts and emotions. In coaching, attending to “the body”, our client’s and our own, is a powerful avenue for discovery, learning and growth. Our clients’ thoughts and emotions are held in, shaped by and expressed through their bodies, which have their own wordless wisdom. Coaching to the client’s somatic experience can accelerate their ability to find liberating new perspectives and make meaningful changes in their lives. In this session we will explore the links between body, thought, and emotion, how to bring the client’s attention to their somatic experience in useful ways, how to support them in learning through the body, and how to use our own body experience effectively in our coaching
