Coaching Conversations 10/18 & 10/19 

We all know how to talk. But conversations that utilize coaching skills leave people feeling stronger, focused, and more creative – more capable of tackling the tasks in front of them and doing it in a way that leaves them feeling fulfilled rather than drained. Coaching conversations improve performance and attitude. They're a key way of helping groups become functioning teams. 

Virtually every church today is in a turn-around mode.  That requires pastoral and lay leaders who know how to engage the laity at a deeper level than ever before.  Coaching conversations create the space where persons get in touch with their unique giftedness, find encouragement to test those gifts, and then have a place of reflection and accountability.

Coaching Conversations Practicum

Continue learning by applying coaching skills in your unique ministry setting and reflecting on your practice with an experienced coach. The optional Coaching Conversations Practicum will allow workshop participants to establish their learning goals, practice skills, reflect on the applications and learn from others in ministry through a series of coaching calls with one of the workshop leaders over the 5 months following the workshop.

The practicum includes:

  1.  Individual call to set individual learning goals (45 min)
  2. Group call to practice skills, share learnings and gain feedback (90 min)
  3. Individual call to assess learning goals and continue skill development (45 min)
  4. Group call to practice skills, present and debrief case studies for group learning (90 min)
  5. Group call to practice skills, present and debrief case studies for group learning (90 min)
