In the next module we will be continuing to develop your coaching skills with some ‘unseen’ coaching magic.

You’ll learn:

  • That resistance is just a sign of lack of rapport
  • How to create an environment for powerful personal discovery
  • How to use silence to induce deeper discovery

And you’ll have moved from:

  • feeling like you have to have all the answers, to trusting that the right outcome will present itself
  • resisting the resistance in some clients, to embracing it and turning them into your greatest advocates

 

Module 4 will be available on 5th July
