Did you know that curiosity is your superpower as a coach? Though we often think of being curious as a personality trait, it’s actually the foundation of our capacity for connection, growth, and healing — and to support others on this journey too. 

Dr David Drake is partnering with the Institute on a year-long project to help us move beyond competency models in coaching. This discussion group is your opportunity to explore his work on The Five Maturities as a new paradigm for coach development. Sessions will focus on topics such as (1) why we need to align how we assess and develop coaches with what the research concludes make the most difference; (2) why maturity is often more important that mastery when it comes to client outcomes; (3) why we need to define ‘coach’ and ‘coaching’ in new ways now; and (4) why the five maturities and five masteries are key to advancing your craft and practice.

Save the date for the next EMEA roundtable on December 5, 2023 at 9:00am CET. The EMEA Café Roundtable is a free monthly, one hour, live virtual meeting with the intention to explore our experience and to connect with each other and ourselves.
