'Thanks for all your help with my PCC, I found out yesterday I got it!!! ...I was really pleased with the comments about being direct as this was what I’d be practicing since your feedback and was glad it came across.'
Katie Harvey PCC
Coaching supervision is about the art and craft of coaching.
The art of coaching uses the Seven Eyed model of supervision to refine your practice with clients and organisations. It is to do with the context of your coaching. Too often coaching is about meeting the client in a room where the door is closed on the organisation. Excellent coaching keeps the door open and ensures the client is coached in the context of the organisation.
The craft of coaching is concerned with developing your coaching skills against the core competencies of the ICF. It is to do with the content of your coaching.
Attention to context and content ensures excellence and simplicity in the art and craft of coaching.
"I knew that I could be better as a coach, but it was only when a very experienced coach, Claire Pedrick, listened to my recorded coaching sessions and gave me feedback over a period of time that I had concrete things to work on. Claire acknowledges me when I am meeting the ICF competencies for the level I am aspiring to. Equally, she is very supportive in helping me see the possibilities for what I need to do differently. Every time I leave a supervision session with Claire, I feel the challenge to improve my coaching for the benefit of my clients.
I cannot extol the virtues of supervision enough, even for an experienced coach, and Claire is an excellent supervisor. " Clare Norman, Global Management Consultancy Company
We are passionate about excellence and simplicity in coaching. Supervision is the best way to develop professionally as a coach by integrating your acquired knowledge with what you are learning from working with your coaching clients. As you do this you will notice your coaching stlye becoming simpler and cleaner so that you the coach become less and less important in the coaching relationship.
Please note that if you are going for the PCC you will need TEN hours mentor coaching. It may well be that a good pace for you is an hour a month. Therefore you will need to start almost a year before you intend to go for your credential.
Pick up the phone now and call Claire on 0845 458 0154 to ask the questions which are on your mind about your own development as a coach - whether you are just starting out or very experienced. Face to face and telephone supervision is available.
'First of all a thank you for what I felt was an excellent session last Thursday morning. I just wanted to share this 'success' with you. On Tuesday morning this week I had my first client since last Thursday and I put myself 'in the passenger seat' as we'd talked about. I think I spoke for maybe 5 minutes altogether in the whole hour. I made no notes at all (and I usually take quite a few) and I could remember much more of the conversation than I have in the past. It was obvious to me as the session progressed that in letting the client 'do the driving' I was listening and engaging with her at a different, much deeper level and wasn't being distracted by e.g. thinking about what to note down, what I should say next, what the outcome of the session would be for me. I'm sure there's much more which will become more obvious as I reflect on it.' Colin Hurst
