§
Coaching is not about doing – it is about being.
To “B\Coach” is the essential meaning of business coaching.
B\First, then get results!
§
Learn “to” Coach!
Most programs teach you
about coaching but provide very little experiential learning integrated
into their coach training. B\Coach
bases its business coach development system in action learning. We teach you about coaching and then you coach –
every week of the program. Coaching is
not learned through the neo-cortex, it is learned through the limbic
system.
Learning through the limbic system requires action learning,
introspection, reflection and practice. Don't be fooled by
lecture-based programs with demonstration role plays, that's not enough
to rewire the limbic system!
§
Learn about business
Set in a business context
with business people doing business coaching.
Make no bones about it, coaching in business requires you to
understand business and to work with people who do!
We’re serious about business.
Our new CoachMBA program helps you understand and relate to
business people at all levels of business without worry about whether
you know enough about business to function within a business system!
§
Become a Certified Business Coach!
In an emerging field like coaching, you can find
distinction through credentialing.
The International Consortia of Business Coaches is an
organization specifically formed by leading business coaches to serve
the interests of business coaching.
Two credentials are offered: Certified Business Coachä
and Master Business Coach. Credentialing
opportunities are offered at the conclusion of each program as well as
throughout the world upon occasion.
§
Structured experiential learning!
Our program is developmentally better because we
utilize a structured learning approach – not a hodgepodge of unrelated
classes taken in random order. Structured
learning moves from basic to sophisticated.
It is programmed through spaced repetitions and conditioning to
integrate the learning into your being, over time.
§
Referent groups increase learning potential.
Unlike most programs where people are allowed to come
and go – our program is designed to optimize your learning experiences
by assembling and facilitating a fixed group throughout the entire
six-month program – culminating in a face-to-face retreat. Our participants bond during the first few weeks of the
program – going on to create deeper learning and coaching mastery as
real world issues are brought into the safety of the group.
Deeper levels of learning are achieved through real-life issues
in every coaching role-play.
§
3:1 facilitator ratio
Our 3:1 facilitator ratio is unsurpassed in the coach
training industry. We use a
proven method of creating action learning sessions where each member of
the coaching triad: person
coaching, person being coached and observer switches roles to create 360°
learning during facilitated feedback.
§
Low-cost virtual training
Avoid the high costs of travel, time and lost
opportunity by joining our virtual training programs. We use the telephone, Internet and e-mail to connect people,
distribute materials electronically and build community.
Just two evenings a week for 1.5 hrs each, provide you with the
opportunity to learn to coach. However, to cap off the program, each group meets for a
3.5-day retreat to complete certification, training and the opportunity
to be together in person. The program is designed to be least cost to
participants. We provide
materials by electronic means that you have the option of printing and
cataloging in a conventional manner.
§
Just show up!
That’s right, you win if you show up.
No outside requirements – all training is delivered in
self-contained sessions meeting 2x week. The program accommodates busy schedules and family
commitments.
§
Online Competency Reviews
Each module is accompanied by online competency
reviews that help integrate the material more deeply through an
additional modality of development.
These short quick reviews provide check-backs that are effective
in self-assessment of learning gained from action learning sessions.
§
Make-up sessions available
We know you’re busy and we’re not interested in
asking you to trade-off your child’s soccer game or a skiing trip or
just a bad day to stay in synch with the program.
We offer make-up sessions each week for those who miss or those
people wanting extra practice. If
you can’t make the structured make-up sessions, our facilitators are
available for customized sessions.
§
Real Audio Learning
Real audio learning is available to reinforce the
class sessions in case you miss or just want extra time with the
material. Recordings of
actual coaching sessions help integrate the material more deeply and
provide additional guidelines for development of your coaching skills.
§
Real time coaching optional!
Each participant is provided with the opportunity for
coaching during the program. A
minimum of 10 minutes per week is available at low cost.
Participants have the option to be coached by certified coaches
who help you learn the coaching model more quickly and help you with
issues, which are important to you now!
§
§
Take B-Coach with you!
No program offers you the flexibility and success of
B\Coach. When you complete
your B\Coach program – you’ll be licensed to use B\Coach in
organizations! You’ll
know the program inside and out, and all you pay is a materials license
fee for each participant you train.
You no train the trainer fee to use B\Coach in your private
practice or development inside your organizations, just pay the fee for
each participant.
Join the partners!
Once you complete B\Coach and are certified as a
“Business Coach” you can apply for membership with a professional
group of business coaches who have formed B\Coach Partners, LLP.
The purpose of B\Coach Partners, LLP is to create business
results through collaborative coaching and development.
§
Enhance emotional competence
The program utilizes the Leadership Engagement
Inventory to develop all participants during the program.
This instrument developed over the past four years leverages emotional intelligence
during the leadership coaching process utilizing spiral dynamics. We
also use the PIAV-Personal Interests, Attitudes & Values Survey from
TTIDisc, Learning Styles Inventory, The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode
Survey, The Reiss Profile of Motivational Sensitivity and Myers-Briggs
Type Indicator Step II to round out the
development opportunity to increase emotional competence in the program.
§
Build Community!
B\Coach means community. Our program is designed to foster closeness and togetherness.
We learn by being vulnerable, by taking chances and by learning
to fail in a safe, secure environment.
We also know that people bond when they “walk through fire
together” and we foster opportunities for serious development of
skills, practices and ways of being—together!
All members submit photos and bios and the group is able to grow
in community. An email
discussion list is moderated for community building.
Once you graduate, the opportunity for continued development is
available!
