I'm very happy: ICF global has not only posted the AI Coaching Standards, but also published the draft for the Coaching Platform Standards. The latter is so important, for me more than anything the points around Business Practices and Transparency. #icfproud #icfglobal #icfcoaching #aicoaching

They are out, the #ICF #Coachingsupervision #competencymodel Thank you Joel DiGirolamo Thomas Tkach Carrie Abner, CAE and all those who have worked diligently on this growing our field. My wish for 2025 - an ICF #credential and approval of programmes as opposed to just CCEs plus SUPERvision even more embedded in credentialing and renewal… ICF have chosen to focus the model on Coaching SUPERvision, however, our faculty at #CoachME note that it can be transferable for SUPERvising mentors, leaders, OD and L&D professionals, trainers, co-coaches, facilitators… Now for a bit of debate and generative thinking. 🤔 I find the phrase ‘coaching the coach’ leads to confusion in the field. We always advocate, right from initial coach training on our Association for Coaching and our ICF Level 1 programmes coaches having coaching for themselves for the experience (of course!). We prefer to say a coaching style of SUPERvision which can be one way to SUPERvise. This discussion came up this week in our #emcc #esqa training for #esia and some of the group were surprised at my stance due to my usually eclectic approach blending, for example somatic work with gestalt approaches and psychodynamic… My take is that if you are coach me on my stuff such as eg a relationships, we may talk about the ways that beliefs or habits play out in my different relationships including with clients and so the topic could come up in SUPERvision with a focus on the business side of coaching work and on the behaviours, ways of being too and yet it is a different focus. Of course, the restorative element of SUPERvision may also shine a light on the topic too. Maybe a dotted line around SUPERvision and coaching the coach, one that is permeable as opposed to being a thick line or division? Of course, in SUPERvision we may also ask for, or a SUPERvisor may offer an opinion or advice from experience or from research and we don’t have to leave with action and accountability (to put the end of a session bluntly). I know Michelle Lucas refers to coaching the coach in a write up as part of her new model too and Julia Carden PhD, PCC, FCIPD has also shared on this this week. Does the phrase confuse those training in SUPERvision and new SUPERvisees? What’s your take? Damian Goldvarg, Ph.D., MCC, CSP, ESIA, ACTC Paul S. Sanbar, MCC ESIA Mirella Treves Caroline Beckett MCC EIA/SP ESIA MA Prof. David Clutterbuck Professor Peter HAWKINS Eve Turner Craig McKenzie Dr Lise Lewis Robin Shohet Benita Stafford-Smith, MCC Jo Birch Edna Murdoch Erik de Haan https://lnkd.in/ghCUak_q I am proud to say that our #40cce #professionalcertificate in #systemicsuoervision and our #emcc and Association for Coaching (AC) accredited #diploma need no tweaks, they are all aligned to ICF’s competency model. #cce #icfcce

HOW DO YOU ACCELERATE YOUR COACHING IMPACT AND OPTIMIZE TOWARDS TRANSFORMATIONAL COACHING? ICF talks about 'Coaching the WHAT' and 'Coaching the WHO' in their revised competency model. Coaching the what tends to be to some degree equivalent to transactional coaching which goes a bit like this: Coachee shares what they want to improve, coach works with the coachee on how to best improve it. So far so good, and in some cases, that's all we have time for, especially if it's a short session and the coachee needs a solution right away. However, a coach tends to add a lot more value to the coachee if they help them identify their patterns that lead to such situation in the first place, and then expand their mindset around that, or perhaps even shift the way they look at it. This is what Coaching the WHO or transformational coaching is about. Such transformation tends to benefit the coachee way beyond the issue at hand, and therefore tends to be more valuable than transactional coaching. Easier said than done. We found that Harrison Assessments Int'l is a great tool to accelerate transformational coaching, and in our upcoming session we share some real-life cases to illustrate that. Join our complimentary session on 10/October here: https://lnkd.in/g2mc4BGr #transformationalcoaching #coachingexcellence #ascendu #harrisonassessments

In short excellent in all regards. She focused me on my identified development needs and balanced gentle prompts and tougher reflection for my own deep learning with education and techniques to build my skills. Some of the most valuable things I learned through Tracy's mentoring were to pace myself and watch my "advice monster". More importantly I learned how to focus the coachee on their own process and in particular reflect on their own learning. I'd be happy to recommend Tracy as a mentor for anyone in the coaching field especially if they are pursuing an ICF credential. She has a deep knowledge of the subject matter formed from wide reading, a constant hunger for new knowledge and ideas, and the wisdom that is gained from many years of practice. She has a warm, empathetic, light style borne from a genuine care for the people she works with. I have no hesitation in recommending Tracy to you and I'm sure you will flourish professionally and personally as a result of working with her. I have!” Tim Sprague M.Sc (Coach Psych) ICF PCC Robert Gaylard Meaveen Sullivan MAppSc, PCC Sheena Polese MBA, MSc (Coaching Psychology), PCC ICF Nicole Florio

What’s stopping your organisation from accessing coaching? I saw from a recent ICF article that a global study identified 73% of employees and 78% of senior executives value coaching, yet only 38% of organisations have access to coaching modalities. You may be interested in coaching but not sure how it fits with your existing development processes? The great news is we’ve seen with our own clients that adding coaching alongside L&D programmes can really amplify the ROI, helping employees to embed their learning and apply to their own circumstances. It really can be a win/win. And if you need to keep your lovely CFO happy in the process, consider group coaching. It’s a fantastic way of reaping the benefits, whilst maximising the impact of your budget. Take a look at our case studies or get in touch directly to hear how we can help your company get started with coaching. #groupcoaching #leadershipcoaching #managementcoaching

🌟 Unlock Your Professional Potential with Modalities! 🌟   In the dynamic landscape of the modern workplace, effective communication and understanding your colleagues can make all the difference. One powerful tool to achieve this is understanding modalities - the different ways, people perceive and process information.    What are Modalities?   Modalities refer to the sensory channels through which individuals prefer to receive and process information. The primary modalities are Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic.    Why Should You Care?   By recognizing and adapting to these preferences, you can enhance your interactions, boost team collaboration, and improve overall productivity.   Here’s how:   🔹 Visual Learners: Respond best to images, diagrams, and written instructions. Use charts, graphs, and visual aids in your presentations to engage them effectively.   🔹 Auditory Learners: Prefer listening and speaking as their primary modes of communication. Ensure your verbal instructions are clear and concise, and consider incorporating discussions or verbal summaries.   🔹 Kinesthetic Learners: Thrive on hands-on experiences and physical activities. Provide opportunities for them to engage in demonstrations, role-playing, or interactive workshops.    Benefits at Work   1. Enhanced Communication   2. Improved Team Collaboration 3. Boosted Productivity Case Study: XYZ Corporation   XYZ Corporation, a mid-sized tech company, faced challenges in team collaboration. Despite having talented employees, project timelines were often delayed, and team members felt misunderstood and undervalued during meetings. To address these issues, a workshop was conducted on understanding modalities - Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic.   Results after Three Months:   - Enhanced Meeting Effectiveness: Meetings became more productive as presenters used a mix of visual aids, clear verbal instructions, and interactive elements.   - Improved Team Collaboration: Team members felt more understood and valued, leading to decreased miscommunications and increased collaborative efforts.   - Boosted Morale and Productivity: Employee satisfaction surveys indicated higher morale, with many employees appreciating the new communication strategies. Productivity metrics showed a 20% improvement in project completion times.   By understanding and implementing communication modalities, XYZ Corporation successfully enhanced team collaboration, reduced misunderstandings, and improved overall productivity.   This case study underscores the importance of recognizing individual communication preferences and adapting strategies to meet diverse needs, fostering a more cohesive and efficient work environment.   Let's connect and explore how you can enhance your communication skills and team dynamics.   Thanks, Isha Khanna www.ishakhanna.com #SoftSkills #ProfessionalDevelopment #CommunicationSkills #Teamwork #NLP #BehavioralTraining #ishakhanna #ishainspireslives

TEAM COACHING - JUST A FAD? Team coaching has become very popular in recent years and an increasing number of coach training institute now offer team coaching certification programs for any practicing coaches to become a certified team coach. First, we are one of them - you can get ready for the ICF Advanced Certification in Team Coaching through Ascend-U also. So, I'm biased to some extent. At the same time, having been an executive coach since 2002 and a practicing team coach since 2010 (we launched our first team coach training in 2011), I can't deny the impact team coaching can have on a leadership's team positivity (how they relate) and productivity (what they achieve). If you want to know more how and why this works, and why we're quite certain that this is not just a fad but here to stay, join our upcoming complimentary preview on Team Coaching on 5/Nov, 12.30-13.30 (SGT/HKT/CST, GMT+8): https://lnkd.in/gdnYam2y #teamcoaching #icfcertification #teamcoachingcertification #innovativeteamcoaching Amit Chatterjee Dana Breitenstein PCC Wilson Li Clara Wang PCC Coach Kumar KS Dr. Sabine Kullak Josephine Tan Wendy Wu
