"Some sessions were truly magical"
Roberto Milani
"This has been the most significant
learning I have experienced. I most appreciated the balance between
safety and challenge. A safe and empowering environment for learning
and being"
Danny Jolly
"The programme was very rich and
inspiring. I learned a lot about myself and the coaching business
as well as skills in the course"
Tianshu Deng
"I knew I would build and develop
my skills but I never knew how much I would achieve through being a coach
and client. The programme has exceeded all my expectations."
Caroline Harding
"I think the course has been exceptional
in its ability to communicate the fundamental principles and practice of
coaching in a way that has been both accessible and inspirational"
Sophie Wellings
"My experience has been profound.
I have gained a lot of new knowledge, skills and confidence. I most
appreciated the supportive climate of the whole group including Phil, Colin,
mentors and participants. It has felt like a co-active, safe, supportive
experience."
Alison Rennison
"An outstanding adult learning programme
constructed with a keen eye to our learning"
Deryn Holland
"The programme has fully met my expectations
and the goals I set. I appreciate most the method of learning / ownership
you represent."
Per Bennet
"I have been totally engaged in the
course. It has been a very rich, positive learning environment.
Well paced. Brilliant that is has been so inclusive of participants
experience, thoughts, ideas and questions. Demonstrations have been
great and also opportunities to coach so much and be given clear, focused
feedback."
Jan Davies
"It's really an experience more than
a programme and it's been transformational."
Mounir Salib
"It's been challenging, thought-provoking,
stretching and fun. It's been uncomfortable at times and I've loved
every minute. I now feel I'm a great coach - thank you."
Corinne McGee
"It was a very good experience.
I clarified my purpose even further. I built my self-confidence more
and learned a lot from the group. Most importantly I developed my
self-awareness and became more congruent with my identity. I really
valued the experience and I highly recommend it."
Marielena Sabatier
"Coaching Development provides a
safe environment to learn and to just be. I've learnt and put into
practice an awful lot but most importantly the stuff I've learnt has been
the most important stuff. For me the content covers the skills that
make really great coaches. There is still a lot for me to learn and
practice but I know I have had the best start."
Lucy King
"Transformational experience.
Exceeds expectations. Will highly recommend it."
Stephen Kirk
"I loved the whole course.
I feel blessed to have attended it. I appreciate your loving, gentle
approach which broke through my 'control and pushing' when coaching others.
High integrity, high quality course."
Gosia Gorna
"An incredible learning journey of
growth and inner wisdom. This has been the key in opening the door
to new possibilities and areas of my life that I would never thought possible
nor achievable."
Patrizia Amanati
"Overall a great experience.
Builds competence and confidence in a focused and reinforcing, affirming
way."
Mark Brown
"I appreciated the structure of the
programme and the careful thought around the experiential work"
Naomi Graham
"The experience was like a wonderful
dinner. I feel very tempted to eat more and very hungry!"
Geraldine Ipavec
"My overall experience was fabulously
positive and enjoyable. I really appreciated the group dynamic which
has been created."
Danielle Brooks
"What I have most appreciated about
this programme is the coaching practice feedback. I have and will
recommend the course to others."
Matthew Last
You have provided us rigour by allowing
us and trusting us to do and to think. And your observations of our
work have been equally honest - if something is good it is enthusiastically
praised; if it is poor we are told so, nothing second rate accepted.
This has been a huge stretch and I've appreciated the opportunity."
Judith Bodenham
"A wonderful experiential journey
in which I experienced a far heightened level of coaching; a blending of
theory with practical application. Everything being asked of us was
fully demonstrated by those running and supporting the programme."
Karen Galley
"During the course I feel I have
become a coach and am becoming a coach. I have not so much learnt
techniques but a sense of how to be. It has been both a personal
challenge as well as a professional challenge. The experiential nature
of the programme has been highly enjoyable and crucial for learning and
realizing this sense of being. Colin and Phil have created something
rare which has to be experienced to be understood."
Julian Staniforth
"Unexpectedly challenging, varied
and supportive with a powerful underpinning of values. I appreciated
the safety of the group (created and maintained effectively) and the non-defensive
position of the trainers - excellent, authentic modeling."
Anna Bianchi
"I mostly appreciated the attention
given to the course design - every element was thought through so much
so that we embedded in our learning as we went along. The quality
of the course participants meant I learnt as much from our interactive
elements as from the 'straight' teaching bits"
Mary Anna Wright
"The course overall has had a huge
impact on me and it is not an exaggeration to say life for me will not
be the same! I have made enormous strides forward. Thank you!"
Jo Nunn
"Enjoyed it greatly. I have
gained as a coach in specific areas and generally in my confidence, perspective
and structure. It has been a fantastic group of people - open, supportive,
fun, values-driven and I feel it will have some longevity. You have created
a fantastic space to explore, learn and grow. "
Nick Cowley
"I have experience this course as
a model of co-active coaching. You have been endlessly responsive
to our needs and feedback - shaping a massively productive learning environment
and a very safe place in which to experiment, stretch and grow. The
biggest value of all to me has been the experiential nature of this course
- coaching, coaching, coaching, what a great way to learn!"
Carola Bennion
"The Coaching Development programme
has stretched me beyond the limits I thought I knew. The diversity
of the group in terms of background and experience and Phil's and Colin's
enormous care, enthusiasm and thoughtfulness enabled a learning environment
that was supportive, thought-provoking, safe and highly enjoyable.
I know that the programme will continue to impact my personal and professional
life and I cannot recommend this experience highly enough."
Maren Urschel
"A truly outstanding programme; accurately
described, presented clearly and assembled carefully. A safe, powerful,
challenging learning environment. I most appreciated the demonstrations,
frequent practices, the way the teaching linked together, the clarity of
the presentation and the clarity of the intent."
Jeremy Carruthers
"I found the whole experience extraordinary
and amazing. I really appreciated the obvious care, thought and expertise
in the design of the programme. I think that the balance of styles,
experience and personalities of Colin and Phil added both interest and
depth to the teaching sessions. I also appreciated the variation
of tone and pace within each module and day."
Sian Modine
"A stimulating, thought-provoking,
comprehensive course. A good balance between theory and practice.
Good support structures. Clear delivery. The interaction and communication
between the trainers provided, from the outset, permission for me to be
myself, a safe space which felt supportive and holding, as well as challenging."
Sheila Ashley
"This has been the best programme
I've ever attended. It has felt like an adult, appreciative, learning
environment. The design is thoughtful, creative and meaningful.
The facilitators are serious professionals with a passion for their craft.
The journey is of reflection and discovery about what you are and what
lies beneath and drives anything you might want to do as a coach. The ultimate
test is "does it work?" - the growth in people's skills, confidence and
comfort in their own skins is palpable and inspiring."
Elsa Ducker
"Overall worthwhile and enriching."
Michelle Cheng
"I appreciated the quality of the
peer group; the underlying learning process design and the fact that you
changed it to meet the learning needs of the group; the format which maintained
momentum while enabling life to go on; and the rigour through a) choice
of material and b) making everything experiential - there was no getting
away and we had to learn things 'in our bones'."
Kate Ng
"A hugely enriching experience which
has allowed me to explore "being" a coach, rather than "doing" coaching."
Sara Milne Rowe
"I found the course to be fantastic.
On each module the learning seemed to deepen and in parallel my skills
as a coach grew. The course took me from feeling inadequate to be
a coach to being ready to face the highly competitive outside world.
The very practical, experiential learning style was perfect for me and
I feel the learning has been profound."
Richard Izard
"Profound. Enlightening.
Enriching. Fabulous. Well-planned. Thorough. Intelligent.
Adult. Balanced: theory to practical. Life-changing.
Transformative."
Remi Baker
"All in all I have found it beneficial
and would highly recommend it to others."
