Mentor Coaching with Christian van Nieuwerburgh
Live Course

The most vital aspect of learning to coach effectively is receiving feedback on your coaching.
Participants will accelerate their professional development by learning the skills of reflective practice. This practice is more than just noticing what goes wrong in coaching and trying to fix weaknesses. Rather than focusing on “getting it right,” we emphasize the development of personal style, identifying moments of critical choice within each session, and engaging in on-going improvement.
Mentor Coaching occurs in a safe and supportive environment and past participants describe it as “empowering.”
This course is offered on Fridays or Saturdays with sessions running from 5 to 7 PM GMT.

What our alumni say

I found this sequence of courses so informative and engaging. The mentoring course was a real opportunity to show a sample of our practice, and to learn from feedback and discussion.
June Rousso
The best investment I could have made is to join your program! It has changed my perspective about people and situations as well as moved my career. As I had less experience than other members of the group, I started very nervously. Thanks to the coaching sessions with my peers, it got better each class!
