Presence-Based Coaching for Resilience

We live in extraordinary times. We are called, both in our own lives and by the emerging needs of our clients, to greater resilience. By this, I mean the capacity to remain resourceful, creative, and at choice, no matter what is going on around us.

Presence is a core competency for practitioners. Less well understood is that presence is the very core of resilience. In fact, evoking presence in our clients is central to seeing and acting on new choices, and therefore to delivering on their behavioral and business outcomes.
