Coaching CPD – EMCC – Intuition and the Coaching Relationship – Trust your gut, listen to reason

Target Audience: Coach practitioner, Senior Practitioner, Master Practitioner

What is this event about?

Objective

Many coaches profess using intuition with their clients – yet most give little thought to how they do so. Claire Sheldon worked with experienced practitioners to start closing that gap. In this session she shares Working at the Boundary, an innovative, research-based model that captures the potential in the moment between us noticing and responding to an intuition. Participants will use it to unpick their responses to intuition in their coaching, to examine the impact of intuitive interventions on the coaching relationship, and to consider ways in which they can work more choice fully at the boundary between intuitive and rational ways of knowing.

What will it cover?

Key areas

  • Intuition: A coaching context
  • Exploring the territory, sharing experience
  • Working at the Boundary: a model for exploring intuition in coaching
  • Expertise, maturity and the quality of intuitive interventions
  • Responding to intuition: four responses and their impact on the coaching relationship
  • The implications for practice: personal reflection and planning ahead

Why should I attend?

Outcomes

Coaches and Supervisors should attend if they want to:

  • Sharpen their awareness of how they experience and act on intuitions
  • Identify when intuitions add value for coach and client – and when they disrupt the coaching relationship
  • Move more elegantly between intuitive and rational ways of knowing Participants will take away Working at the Boundary, a practical model for exploration, supervision and professional development.

How will it run?

While grounded in research, this participative and engaging workshop focuses on practical
application. With Working at the Boundary as a touch point, participants will share personal experiences, experiment, and reflect on practice, both collectively and in smaller groups.

Who will present?

Claire Sheldon has over 20 years’ experience as an executive coach and facilitator. Her clients report developing richer, more productive workplace relationships, and the skills and self-awareness to sustain individual and organisational change.

Having long described herself as ‘an intuitive coach’, her curiosity about what that might mean triggered her dissertation. Her research broke new ground in clarifying how coaches talk about and use their intuition. She uses her model, Working at the Boundary, to support her own work as a coach and supervisor– and to help coaches and supervisors extend personal understandings of intuition in their practice.
