The Inaugural Cutting Edge Conversations took place on Wednesday June 27, 2012. Ten powerful coaches attended and enjoyed the conversation led by Stephanie McDilda. Stephanie did an extraordinary job of giving us critical information and facilitating the conversation. The topic "The Low Down on Coaching" from Stephanie's article with the same title was about the clear, and not so clear, differences in coaching, consulting, therapy and teaching. It was great to engage in meaningful dialogue about a coaching issue, with ample time for discussion. Since each person came from a different training program, the various perspectives added spice to the conversation while the attendees learned each other at a deeper level.
Cutting Edge Conversations are a result of the member survey in which members indicated they wanted something in the evening for those who are internal coaches, and they wanted a venue in which they could have dialogue about hot topics in coaching.
