Open course with Paul Z Jackson & Janine Waldman
Date 14-15 November 2011
St Albans

A two-day intensive workshop for managers, coaches and all those wishing to enhance their coaching skills

“Problem talk creates problems – solution talk creates solutions”
- Steve De Shazer

SF Coaching builds on strengths, draws out people’s know-how – and enables them to share it in the service of outstanding results.

Focusing on solutions and doing more of what works is often much faster and more effective for clients than analysing problems and difficulties and their causes.

It can produce more sustainable results and a lasting shift towards continuous client and organisational development.

Participants describe this course as “fun, practical and dynamic”, relishing “a wonderful, supportive atmosphere”, appreciating “trainers who live the work”. One said, “I'm leaving with a new set of skills that I can begin to implement straight away”.

Whether you are employed within an organisation or an independent coach or consultant, solutions-focused coaching offers you a set of new tools, techniques and tips that you can apply immediately to your current business issues and practice.

Applied by many professional coaches, these methods are now making significant differences within organizations including Walkers, PepsiCo, Syngenta, The Metropolitan Police and Merton Borough Council.

This two-day workshop will develop and build on your current coaching skills to help you become an even better coach. It focuses on making your coaching as direct, pragmatic and effective as possible by concentrating on what works for you and for each of your clients.

You will be introduced to the Solutions Focused coaching model OSKAR and the solutions focused principles. This is an intensive and practical programme with plenty of opportunity for you to practice and hone your skills.

From this workshop you can expect to:

• Start saving time with colleagues,
• Have higher quality conversations, and get your messages across far more effectively
• Discover how to  apply Solutions-Focused Coaching within your business to get better results
• Take away instantly usable tools and techniques that enhance your coaching practice

“May I thank you for your excellent coaching support you have given me, and may I also say that the training you delivered was one of the best examples of training I have ever undertaken in my 35 years in education. Your training course re-vitalised my belief in the value of training!” Keith Garside, South Thames College, London

"I thoroughly recommend this course to all senior managers who are trying to bring out the best in their colleagues, in order to realise the full potential of the organisation that they lead and manage.” Cathy Walsh, Vice Principal, Curriculum and Learner Experience, The College of North East London
