The Coach as a Fellow-human Companion: Coaching expertise between hypercomplexity challenges and a trustful relationship

Activity: Talk or presentation typesLecture and oral contribution

Reinhard Stelter - Speaker

    The coach-coachee relationship is the essential factor for change and development in coaching. However, in times of hypercomplexity, the relational issue gets a new twist. As coach, it is no longer enough to facilitate through questions but requires becoming more involved in a dialogue where both sides are willing to change.
    In the workshop, the concrete ingredients necessary to establish a trustful and collaborative relationship will be explored including experiential, existential, relational and narrative aspects.
    Participants will get the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the key factors that strengthen and intensify the coach-coachee relationship: a relationship that from time to time will have a symmetrical character. Furthermore, participants will explore how to implement these factors in their own practice.
    The workshop leader has a strong interest to create a lively interaction between participants and between participants and himself. The objective is to create a learning environment for reflective practitioners.
