Skills to support groups
Expand your coaching practice through group work
Coaching Circles provide a trusting environment for a small group of peers to coach each other in exploring the challenges and complexities of their roles and in designing effective and authentic ways to achieve what matters most to them. They are a relatively low-cost alternative to one-on-one coaching programs, yet they truly enhance the development of people who meet in this dynamic, challenging and safe setting.
