The Resonant Coach: A Focused Refresh of Listening Foundations and Competency 6 (Co-Hosted)
The session will also include a practical look at how ICF Competency 6 shows up in real-world conversations, identifying the small shifts that turn regular hearing into truly transformational listening. Through quick breakouts and lighthearted exercises, coaches will have the opportunity to align with these markers and sharpen their existing skills in a high-energy environment.
This is an educational, reflective, and experiential session designed to support coaches in refreshing their core skills, regardless of their current level of experience.
Learning Objectives:
- Align their coaching practice with ICF Competency 6 markers, specifically focusing on the subtle shifts that move a conversation from simple hearing to transformational listening.
- Differentiate between "functional hearing" and "transformational listening," identifying the specific behaviors that move a coach beyond simple information gathering toward deeper resonance.
- Cultivate an adaptive coaching mindset by using lighthearted, high-energy interaction to overcome common listening barriers and maintain presence in a virtual environment.
