Leadership Coaching

Coaching professionals in corporate and nonprofit settings can be a unique and rewarding experience. A coach needs to understand the context of the business's business culture and goals and how coaching will enhance the leaders and the organizations they serve. This class is designed for coaches who want to further understand the nature and application of leadership coaching.

This interactive course focuses on understanding and skillfully applying psychosocial theories in leadership coaching conversations. It includes in-class practice coaching. Coaching tools, resources, and current trends are also discussed.

Another benefit of this course is that the final project is submitting a "Draft Request for Proposal" (RFP). This provides the opportunity to develop, present, and receive detailed feedback on a future leadership client proposal. Many former students agree this is the best part of the course.
