Join Team Boo as we welcome you back to coaching. This session is for any coach who wants to get back to basics. It’s an opportunity to refresh your skills as the team share a range of practical tools and helpful reminders. The team will demonstrate how to use the coaching wheel, GROW model and share their expertise in getting started on your coaching journey.

The purpose of this session is for you to explore ethical dilemmas you may face as a coach and the role of supervision and reflective practice to explore and resolve. The session will also allow you to explore ethical dilemmas you may face as a coach, particularly where working internally within the system organisation and the role of supervision and reflective practice to explore and resolve challenges and issues.

At its purest, coaching is the art of truly listening and asking questions that help the coachee generate insights and new perspectives to help empower them and move forward in a positive way. This can be achieved in a short space of time in a confidential environment where it feels safe to share vulnerabilities and issues that might otherwise inhibit progress.

We are working with coaches from within the region, who have undertaken Express Coaching training to support health and care colleagues working across the South West. They will provide focused, short-term support in the form of one virtual coaching session. 

This workshop will explore Express Coaching from the perspective of the coach: building an understanding of how to be impactful as a coach in a time-limited, outcome focused coaching session.

Calibrating your practice to supporting a coachee in potentially one standalone session can be challenging. Overcoming some of the potential barriers, natural preference and indeed bias to practicing in longer term coaching relationships will be key. We will explore the practicalities of contracting effectively to build rapport and trust quickly and then practice in an agile way along the spectrum of coaching to best meet the needs of the coachee.

The Foundations in System Leadership; collaborating for health and care programme is open to all colleagues working in health, care, local authorities, and voluntary sector partnerships, who have a desire to improve the way they collaborate across organisational, professional, and hierarchical boundaries to design and deliver better health outcomes for the communities they serve.

It covers 3 main themes – What is a system? Why is it important? How do you do it?

The programme will run for five weeks and will take approximately five hours of self-directed study per week so you can fit the course around your work, study and family commitments.
