G4 Mindful Coaching: The Artful Investigator
Level: All Levels

Coaching can be seen as a facilitated individual process of change. Mindful coaching requires a razor self-awareness as we commit ourselves to being fully present in service to our clients. In this experiential workshop, we explore the interrelationships between three distinct lines of artful questioning in facilitating insight, goal clarity, and impetus for action. Emphasis is on the quality of presence of the practitioner in opening new ways of seeing and being. We experience the power of artful questions from perspectives of practitioner and client.
