ILCT announces its Christian Track Life Coaching Class

It is my belief that the church community is a powerful way for coaching to reach a wider audience. In response to requests from people desiring a model of coach training that integrates principles of Judeo-Christian theology, ministry of the Holy Spirit, and solidly grounded in a faith based service model.

ILCT is the only ICF certified program that has a special emphasis for those who want to apply coaching in a faith-based manner, either due to their community or because of their approach to service and stewardship. The curriculum of ILCT has always had a whole person approach to our training; this includes how to work with client’s spiritual goals, life meaning, and purpose inquiry.

At ILCT, we promote our training to be applicable to all religious affiliations and in April, we offer this track to an audience of Christian faith-based professionals. Many of our ILCT graduates set up church coaching groups. In April, I will be conducting a, two-day training for Catholic leaders in a Connecticut Diocese. These leaders want to learn to use the coach approach with their ministry, their staff development and as an outreach to their congregations.

If this special niche appeals to you, there is more information about the Christian Track in our April Newsletter.

Live Training with Patick Williams, the ambassado of life coaching

Opportunity to train with Patrick Williams live in Cape Cod!!!!
Dear ILCT members, and Tomorrow's Life Coach subscribers

Patrick Williams is once again presenting his very popular workshop in Cape Cod this summer with the New England Educational Institute, August 22-26. Even though the symposium is called Therapist as Life Coach, it is applicable for anyone who wants to hear Pat's perspective on Life Coaching as the operating system of all coaching and how it is different and a unique profession. Topics include history of coaching, distinctions, and practice....all done with Pat's humor and enthusiastic and engaging style.

THERE IS STILL ROOM FOR 25 PEOPLE!!!!

This symposium has been designed to provide participants with an understanding of the theory, historical perspective, and practical methodology of the profession of personal and professional coaching and how it has evolved. This symposium will clarify the distinction between therapy and coaching. Participants will learn skills that are transferable from the field of therapy and skills that need to be "unlearned." This symposium has been designed for participants who would like to understand further the field of coaching and how they may incorporate it into their practice or evolve their practice into one entirely of coaching.

Live coaching demonstrations, practical experience, and interactive worksheets will be utilized to illustrate coaching principles and techniques.

Welcome to the Life Coaching Blog

Welcome to our new Blog.....yes I too wish there were a better name for this (smile)!

This weblog (blog) is designed as a space for you to build community, share ideas, ask questions, learn new things and get new inspiration. My select faculty from the Institute for Life Coach Training and myself will be writing articles, posting insightful content, answering questions and creating community.  Think of this like your favorite coffee shop, or French Cafe, or library.  Come hang out, share, learn, connect.

This site is intended to share the power and practicality that life coaching and the coach approach to living, learning, and loving can be in the world. Come as often as you like and invite others to join us!

Happy Coaching!
