Executive Coaching Practicum
After a very successful pilot in 2001 with 30 of our students who volunteered to be coaches to executive with PBS&J, an international engineering firm, and in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006, we had 40 additional coaches. Now, for January 2009 we are set for the ninth year. This class is partially sponsored by PBS&J which results in lower pricing to students. Program Description: Each coach will participate in regular calls with Dr. Lillibridge for training in coaching executives using the Peoplemap™ System of Coaching, and will also be trained in understanding results of the following assessments: The Peoplemap™, FIRO-B, Meyers-Briggs, and 360 Degree Assessment. Each coach will also have at least one, possibly two, executives to coach both on personal and professional goals within the framework set by PBS&J and Dr. Mike Lillibridge, Project Director. Each participant will receive a 175-page workbook, The Peoplemap™ System of Executive Coaching written by Dr. Lillibridge. Benefits: In addition to gaining six months coaching experience with a top level manager, and knowledge of powerful assessments, each coach will receive 20 credits of coach training in the Executive Coaching Practicum which will count toward hours needed with the ICF for coach certification as part of ILCT's certification track Costs: The cost for this program (all classes, executive coaching experience, specialized training, and 20 hours credit) is $795, plus $79 for the required 150-page workbook and a copy of the assessment tools listed above). This cost covers Dr. Lillibridge's time, phone bridge rental, administrative overhead, and records documentation for your student training hours verification. This is a real deal! And made possible by the generous time Dr. Lillibridge and PBS&J give to the project. And you also get 1-2 executive clients as part of the process.

The Seasons of Change: Bringing Hope to Clients in Transition
Do you coach clients in transition? Whether your clients have entered their transition by choice or by force, whether their transition was anticipated or came as a complete surprise, you meet them where they are. It's likely no one else is accepting what they feel deep within. Feeling heard and honored by you is a profound experience that deepens their trust in themselves, in you, and in the transition journey. The Seasons of Change is a rich, multi-faceted nature-based metaphor that gives you and your clients a gentle, accessible way to talk and think about transitions as a natural part of life. Thoroughly understanding nature's responses to the ever-changing seasons provides you with a deep foundation of knowledge and inspirational metaphors to share with those in transition.
Within The Seasons of Change, each season (or phase) of the transition process has its own signs, actions, and detours. Together this information gives you a map you can share with your clients to show them where they've been, where they are, and where they are going.

This Certificate Course, designed for coaching over the phone or in person, will provide in-depth training for coaches in any niche to enhance and deepen their coaching skills. You will develop expertise in accessing the nonverbal dimension that exists in all interactions and communications. Using Body-Mind Life Coaching™ tools, coaches will learn ways to work with the powerful messages of the body. It is said that the body never lies. Through habitual ways of thinking, acting and feeling, there is often a disconnection between the mind and body.

Additionally, you will gain advanced understanding and practice in the many ways you can uncover, utilize and work with the information from the body.

The instructor has written a 175-page manual, filled with articles, references and specific papers on the Body-Mind Life Coaching™ Process. The course content will focus on learning how to access the language of the body by paying attention to presence, physical sensations, breath, voice, posture, and unconscious habit patterns. Readings, discussion, class experiments, cases, role-plays, demonstration sessions, personal exploration and buddy work will provide different ways to work with non-verbal content.

to Body-Mind Life Coaching(TM): Using the Body to Deepen Awareness
and Forward the Action
"Everything in life moves in cycles or spirals. This is the nature of our physical existence on earth. When we pay attention to the body, we open up new pathways for awareness and change to move us through the cycles of life." (Lauree E. Moss, Ph.D., CLC. 2005) Using body-mind life coaching skills, we can learn ways to work with the powerful non-verbal messages of the body. It is said that the body never lies. Through habitual ways of thinking, acting and feeling, there is often a disconnection between the mind and body. Whatever type of coaching you do, this course will provide tools to work with the fertile ground and information from the body to help bridge the body-mind gap. The course content will focus on learning how to access the language of the body by paying attention to presence, physical sensations, breath, voice, and unconscious habit patterns. Readings, discussion, class experiments, cases, fieldwork, and buddy work will provide different ways to work with non-verbal content. The techniques of "pausing," "noticing" and "practicing" will be used to create and deepen awareness, and forward the action. COURSE OBJECTIVES:

Life Coaching Practicum
This course offers the opportunity to practice in more depth Body-Mind Life Coaching techniques previously taught in the pre-requisite course. Using body awareness, breath, mindfulness and other tools, coaching opportunities arise that can provide information often not available in normal conversation. Examples of ways to use the body as an avenue to gain more information to change perspectives, explore possibilities and affirm the rightness of choices will be explored by experimenting in role-plays and case examples. Participants will also hone their skills and deepen their learning of the Body-Mind Life Coaching process by working with a client who has volunteered to be coached in the class. Each week there will be both a didactic and experiential component. COURSE OBJECTIVES:

for Coaches
This highly interactive, user-friendly class will help you learn the research ropes and use them to bring your practice to a new level. National thought leaders Pat Williams and Carol Kauffman are teaming up to provide you with what you need to learn: how to do basic research; how to read between the lines to tell what's good work and what is blue smoke and mirrors. Research is the key to good marketing – and good practice! Find out what works, and what does not. Never be intimidated by jargon again — "hard" science research can be easy too. As clients become more sophisticated those who can operate in the research arena have the performance edge. Mastering research concepts gives you a razor-sharp way of thinking. Remember learning the difference between listening and Active Listening? There is a similar leap with thinking and active, research-savvy informed thinking.

Coaching the Addiction-Recovered Client to
Full Potential
"Once an Addict - always an Addict." – AA
Philosophy This unique 12 session, 12 hours teleclass is designed for coaches who want to either expand their coaching business to include addiction-recovered individuals or increase their coaching skills specifically tailored to coaching this population. Although sober, the concept of having a chronic disease and promise of relapse prevents many from dreaming of an expanded future, give credence to their often secret longings for more, different, and better. This paradigm shift from addiction as pathology to strengths and human potential may hold the elusive answer to the nagging question of how to prevent the dreaded fear of relapse. Central to this affirming coaching approach are the ten "Growth Process Affirmations" GPA). These affirmations highlight the existence of the recovered individual’s use of strengths throughout the history of addiction and will facilitate individual’s growth potential after recovery as appropriate. Here is an example of GPA: "Through my addictions and recovery, I am discovering that I am strong, resilient, creative, and capable. I can bring meaning and purpose into my life by looking beyond sobriety, meet my needs, live an authentic, value-based life fulfilling my dream, and creating joy and fulfillment." Heuristically, the application of the GPA’s mirrors the principles of positive psychology, Gestalt Philosophy, and Robert Kegan’s transpersonal human development model as well as other time-honored coaching approaches.

Training Retreat: Advanced Retreat: Presence-Based Coaching
Retreat starts 9:00 AM on Monday; ends at 2:00 PM Wednesday. Accommodations are available Sunday evening for early arrivals. This retreat is based on Doug Silsbee’s forthcoming book from Jossey-Bass. Presence is a state of expanded awareness and connectedness to what is around us. From presence spring forth the creative interpretations and new actions most generative in the particular world we each inhabit. The retreat will focus on the development of coach presence through practices of mind, body, and heart. Simultaneously, we will explore how the coach, through his or her awareness, extends that presence to the client, evoking new possibilities. The result is self-generative coaches, self-generative clients, and a better world. Early bird price includes all materials, lodging, gourmet meal, and a one-on-one coaching call after the retreat.
