Presence-Based Coach Training

Presence-Based Leadership Development offers training for experienced and new coaches as well as leaders committed to purposeful and meaningful action.  Each of these offerings will simultaneously support your personal development and professional effectiveness.

Our coach training curriculum is designed to offer robust presence-based coach training, grounded in an inclusive model of human development. The program develops coaches who are deeply committed to their own learning and development, to an inquiry-centered approach to coaching, to cultivating mindfulness and awareness in themselves and their clients, and to placing themselves in service to the growth and development of effective and compassionate leaders.

This curriculum is for discerning individuals who are seeking a top notch development experience with a small group in a face-to-face setting. The core of the training is delivered in three-day residential retreats at a beautiful retreat center in Asheville, NC. Additional reading, self-observations, telephone conferences, and observed audio reviews complete the coursework.

Designed for committed learners at any level of coaching experience, the curriculum is approved by the International Coach Federation for initial certification or renewal at ACC, PCC, or MCC levels.

We received final approval from the ICF; the entire Presence-Based Coaching curriculum now comes with credits for initial coach training or re-certification. We are now in the midst of the Fall Presence-Based Coaching Course. There is still time to sign up for PBC1 in September and PBC2 in October.

With Bev Wann, Doug will be delivering a three day Presence-Based Resilience workshop built around somatic practices to US AID missions globally in 2010. Stay tuned for more on this exciting work.

This was one of the best learning experiences of my career. Mindful Coaching included a focus on the mind, body and soul, all necessary components for long term sustainable change with my executive clients.
