Coaching for conscious leadership
Today’s managers and leaders need to be able to adopt a coaching approach as part of their leadership style. By so doing they consciously create greater employee engagement, engender culture change, and give focus to high performance and achievement and, most importantly, deliver the business requirements. This means being in tune with situations and the different perspectives that people hold in order to respond in real time for greater effectiveness and performance. Tapping into this reservoir of latent talent is important at any time and especially when times are hard.
Whether you are looking at creating a coaching culture, an in-house coaching service, or even simply ad hoc access to qualified coaches in-house, this ICF accredited programme provides the tools, techniques and personal development that are needed for this to happen. Furthermore, we are happy to provide this training in-house for any organisation’s team of strategic leaders.
Changed behaviours resulting from this training include the ability to:
- see others’ perspectives and take them more fully into account
- encourage positive and creative responses in others
- create a greater sense of team and improve team-working
- hold difficult conversations and deal with issues effectively in a non-forceful way
- be sensitive to atmosphere and energy around a situation
- create space for strategic wisdom to emerge, even from unexpected sources
There are 3 levels of training and support: Certificate, Diploma and Credentialing.
The Coaching for Conscious Leadership Certificate comprises 3 incremental modules which are usually studied over a period of 3-6 months accompanied by practice, journaling and six hours of one-on-one coaching. The robustness of the training rests in
- its adherence to the ethical guidelines and core competencies of the International Coach Federation
- its design drawn on the best of the learning and experiences of today’s philosophers, leadership research, master coaches and trainers
- its incremental development founded on the Stillpoint 6-step model
- its delivery using experiential transformational learning.
Certificate Module 1 – All About Me
Anyone intending to use coaching must know themselves first. Authenticity is founded on self-awareness; an integrated coaching approach on the ability to hold powerful conversations.
Certificate Module 2 – All About You
Requires higher levels of consciousness and develops more advanced coaching skills and tools to sustain focused conversations in real time that are wholly about the other person. It introduces body consciousness and knowing how to deal with entrenched views.
Certificate Module 3 – All About Relationship
Focuses on creating powerful relationships quickly using the full range of tools and techniques so that coaching approaches are fully integrated in the participant and available at any time.

The Diploma route requires completion of a fourth module:
Diploma: Module 4 – Embodying the 7 Cs
This is a post-experience module. Each participant must have a minimum of 30 logged coaching hours. Through this module participants become much more evaluative and discriminating in how the skills, tools and coaching attitude contained in the Coaching for Conscious Leadership programme are applied. It comprises 12 hours taught time (6 hours face to face plus 6 one-hour teleclasses) with 3 hours minimum written work and two separate supervision sessions.
Completion of these 4 modules gives the 60 hours’ taught tuition required for Associateship credentialing with the ICF which gives the added value that participants can enhance their own career profile.
Credentialing Support
Two hours’ supervision time with a qualified Stillpoint and ICF credentialed coach who will guide you in the process through to application.
