Combine peer accountability, short teaching and coaching around participants’ situations.
Based on A Model for Group Coaching by Valorie Burton
People can share a direction while facing different obstacles. Group Coaching combines brief teaching, discussion and coaching around participants’ situations, with opportunities to learn from peers. Each person connects the conversation to their own challenge and chooses an action they can review with the group.
People with a shared direction and individual challenges.
Shared direction, individual application and commitments.
Inside the programme
These themes guide the learning. The depth and selection depend on the format and the needs you bring.
Clarify the group’s focus while recognising the different goals and circumstances participants bring.
Discuss what you tried, what happened and what you learned since your previous commitment.
Use coaching questions and peer perspectives to consider an issue without assuming another person’s solution will fit yours.
Choose your own next action and decide what you will bring back for reflection.
From ideas to action
Bring a challenge, choose an action and return to review progress.
Bring a challenge linked to the group’s shared focus, such as delegating more effectively. Examine one situation with the group, choose an action and return with an account of what happened.
This is an example of local application. We adapt the discussion to your situation and agreed scope.
Your practical takeaways
The learning experience
Bring a goal or situation you want to work on. Coaching uses questions, reflection and consideration of options to help you choose your own action. The focus, number of conversations and review arrangements are agreed with you before the engagement.
