Core Competency Intensive:
Evoking Awareness
Develop Skills to Support Clients’ Emerging Awareness
At the heart of coaching lies a powerful truth: a client’s best answers come from within. A skilled coach doesn’t provide solutions or advice, but instead facilitates discovery, evoking awareness through curiosity, presence, and an openness to possibility.
This course dives deep into the art of fostering awareness, blending complementary techniques like skillful questioning, metaphor and analogy, and the strategic use of silence.
The result? Clients who embrace the generative process of self-discovery—and a revitalized coaching dynamic that re-energizes the coach’s practice.
This Core Competency Intensive (CCI) course offers a rich, interactive experience:
- Authentic Practice: Each session features a real coaching demonstration with students in coach and client roles.
- Collaborative Insight: Share and explore the challenges arising in your coaching practice.
- Flexible Learning: All classes are recorded, so you’ll never miss an opportunity to learn.
While ideal for coaches seeking credentialing through recorded sessions, this course is open to all qualified professionals whether you’re pursuing certification or simply deepening your skills.
Open to Coach Approach graduates and other experienced coaches (60+ training hours and 100 paid client hours), this is your chance to refine your craft and elevate your impact.
