How can we support our next generation of leaders? Coaching is now recognized as one of the key components of effective management. Business leaders recognize that building strong team relationships, accelerating solutions and an inclusive leadership style are core elements in high-performance management.

What makes a great leadership learning experience? Think of a time when you had a great learning experience. Perhaps working with a brilliant trainer or collaborating with a leader you respect. We have all experienced learning moments. Our understanding of the world shifts. We gain an entirely new perspective. New paths of action suddenly become clear. What if a program was engineered to provide this level of concentrated learning?

The Art and Science of Coaching is a 4 to 16 day accelerated learning program specifically designed for busy leaders, managers and organizational professionals who want to benefit from proven coaching techniques and structured practice. Participants experience great coaching and learn detailed models and systems that they can immediately integrate into day-to-day business. The program builds a foundation for mastery in the art and science of coaching, assisting managers and teams to operate from a high-performance coaching and leadership model.

The Art & Science of Coaching is a 128-hour program covered in four stand-alone learning modules. The program is accredited by the International Coach Federation, the worldwide governing body of coaching. With more than 10,000 graduates since 1996 and hundreds of corporate programs, The Art & Science of Coaching is well established as the leading corporate coach-training program worldwide.

This program is ideal for teams and individuals who wish to rapidly reach a high level of coaching capability, and is structured around four fundamental coaching questions. These are explored in four highly-integrated 4-day learning modules:

Module I asks, "What do I want?" and provides mastery in the art of achievement. Learn how to create motivation, energy and momentum. Module I is an ideal stand-alone introductory program.

Module II asks, "How might I get it?" and provides a powerful relationship with strategy, priorities and planning.

Module III asks, "How will I stay on track?" and offers a domain of commitment, resolving emotions that can block project success.

Module IV asks, "How will I know that I got it?" and develops the art of achievement and long-term career satisfaction.

If you are committed to leadership in your organization, the accelerated success tools in this program are your key resource.

What is Solution-Focused Coaching?
Solution-Focused Coaching is an advanced coaching model that integrates the profession of coaching with a highly developed body of personal growth technologies. Developed over the past 30 years, it provides a comprehensive approach that assists managers and teams to take action in alignment with their highest individual and corporate vision.

Solution-Focused Coaching assists business leaders to build coaching mastery by practicing and integrating skills at every level of corporate engagement. This coaching leadership approach seamlessly integrates into day-to-day business conversations, creating motivation, team alignment, confidence and effective long-term thinking. Fundamentally, this coaching methodology creates a shift in business perspective that opens new opportunities and paths of action.

What if you and your team already had all the required resources for breakthrough results? Solution-Focused Coaching provides a new alignment between work and core values that expands creativity, strategy and innovation. Solution-Focused Coaching integrates the standards of the professional coaching industry, as defined by the International Coach Federation, with the most established and respected transformational technologies of the past 30 years, into a single unified model of accelerated business effectiveness which includes: Ericksonian Coaching, Neuro-linguistics, 3-Brain Coaching, Whiteboard Thinking and 4-Quadrant Learning.

First recognized in the 1960’s, Ericksonian Coaching is a foundation of true respect on which to build authentic leadership skills, and provides a framework to trust in the process of leadership development. In this comprehensive model, individuals may face challenges and opportunities and are always honored.

Neuro-linguistics is an advanced model of personal transformation that is seamlessly integrated into the Solution-Focused Coaching approach. “Neuro-linguistics is the most powerful vehicle for personal change today.” Psychology Today.

Recently, MIR research on the reptilian, mammalian and visual regions of the brain has fundamentally altered the science of coaching. The 3-Brain Coaching model allows managers to quickly resolve objections and emotions that can block high-performance results. Whiteboard Thinking is a simple set of tools that managers can use to develop the higher-brain visual capabilities for accelerated planning.

Training begins with simple coaching practices that build into coaching systems and finally expand into a highly-integrated coaching model. This refined process, known as
4-Quadrant Learning, is a holographic learning model that quickly develops mastery in both the art and science of coaching.

Why is the Erickson Coach training model so effective? What is the difference between talking about a great meal and eating a great meal? Move from knowing about coaching to the experience of being an effective coach. Learn by doing. Managers leave the program with a solid foundation of experience at being a great coach. Deep learning takes place when participants are immersed in hands-on training that allows them to practice coaching. Breaks between each of the four modules allow for further practice and integration.

Participants leave the program with a deep understanding of the science of coaching, how the brain works, how to increase motivation and how to coach effectively to realize goals. Managers gain the skills to be an outstanding coach and accelerate other people’s success. Learning how to weave powerful coaching questions into everyday conversations builds the foundation for a flexible and dynamic leader. This kind of on-the-ground learning provides a new level of understanding and confidence.

This comprehensive approach includes a detailed 300-page program binder.
Coaching exercises and practice use a triad structure in which the coach, subject and observer, all support the learning process with respectful feedback.
