Course Description

Before there are items to sort, decisions to make and systems to establish, there is a client searching for help with an overwhelming situation.

Approaching the project from a client-centered perspective and utilizing the 11 ICF core competencies of coaching, can provide your client with deeper clarity and lasting success.
