Let’s talk about the power of feedback, recognition and reinforcement in coaching !

In this interactive session Brett will help us consider how we solicit and respond to feedback and the impacts of that. Let’s think about how we model behaviours for the people we interact with. Also, we will talk about how you provide feedback and encouragement to your coachees and others. Brett will remind us of a simple process to unpack feedback and turn it into positive action. Lastly let’s challenge ourselves to give recognition and feedback more often and in a more meaningful way !

With such a rich topic we will touch on several ICF core competencies in the session including: active listening, direct communication, creating awareness, plus establishing trust and intimacy.

If you’d like to join Brett and work this intriguing topic together, please register. It looks like it’s going to be a very thought provoking session. Don’t miss out !
