Tools of the Trade

We all have our favorite go-to tools we use most often.  We do that for a reason – they work!  This Cutting Edge Conversation is an opportunity to share either a coaching tool or a business tool that you absolutely would not want to do without.  It could be a tool you developed yourself that you are willing to share or an old standby like the Wheel of Life you use in a unique way.  Perhaps you have a filing system, scheduler, social media, or marketing tool you use on the operations side business that has become invaluable to your business – those are welcome in this discussion as well.  Our fellow coach colleagues have a wealth of experience and wisdom to share.  This conversation is about learning new methods from each other.   If your favorite tool is a worksheet or product of some kind that you can bring to show us, that would be helpful to the visual learners in the group.   The definition of tool is broad; it could be a worksheet, visualization, concept, book, exercise, assessment, video, website, organizer, poster, software, notebook et al.  Bring your creativity and willingness to try something new.

In this Cutting Edge Conversations, we will explore:

•        What is your favorite coaching tool(s) and why?
•        How can I incorporate a new tool into my established way of doing business?
•        What do I do when I am resistant to incorporating a new tool/system?
•        How do I incorporate a new tool when it changes the way I interact with established clients?
•        How does willingness to incorporate new practices expand my range as a coach?

3rd Annual ICF Raleigh Conference

Interested in a Sponsorship?

ICF Raleigh is pleased to present 3 webinars on Ethics in the Coaching profession.  

October Webinar Description: You get a notification from an ICF (International Coach Federation) staff that someone has filed a complaint about you. The IRB (Independent Review Board) has determined that the case has legitimacy and you are asked to respond to the allegations. How do you feel?

Michael will describe the steps involved in the ECR (Ethical Conduct Review). This will be a discovery conversation on your ability to reflect and adjust. You will see how the ERC is more an educational process intended to improve your coaching business and your relationships with your clients, and less a punitive system of Do’s and Don’ts. This presentation will be fun – promise!

Learning Objectives: Attendees will gain a more complete understanding of ICF ethics by exploring the ECR process; examining their personal awareness of the ICF CoE (Code of Ethics); and determining their personal steps to establish a strong ethical basis for their coaching business.

This webinar is assigned 1 CCE for credential renewal purposes.
