Coaching for Growth and Development

Using Applied Gestalt Theory

We are happy to introduce a new opportunity to study GISC's coaching concepts remotely. Each blended-learning program consists of a two-hour video which includes didactic, discussion, exercises, and a coaching demo of the concepts presented.


1. Polarities: 

Focusing on Well Developed & Less Developed Competencies

This blended learning program (video plus live-online follow-up session) focuses on coaching applications of the Cape Cod Model©, a unique intervention technique which identifies and addresses the Well Developed/Less Developed© skills of an individual that support the individual’s own competencies and ability to move towards change. In addition to facilitating the Well-Developed/Less-Developed© skills in an individual, we explore the use of polarities in reducing resistance to change. Simon/Walk, faculty.


2. Resistance

Working with Resistance Through Contact & Awareness

This blended learning program focuses on coaching applications for the cycle of experience, including the specific areas of awareness, contact, and the use of resistance in supporting the client’s intentions during coaching. Participants will learn to employ structured feedback techniques using awareness, contact, and resistance as powerful coaching tools. Simon/Walk, faculty.


3. Presence: 

Developing Your Presence for High-Impact Coaching

This blended learning program focuses on presence as it impacts the coaching engagement and supports the intentions of the client. Participants will begin to explore aspects of their coaching presence that are well developed as well as their developmental edge and learn to use structured feedback techniques as powerful coaching tools. Simon/Halpern, faculty.

"Already a seasoned professional, I moved to a new area and faced many challenges adjusting to changes in my personal and professional life. The Skills for Influential Leadership class helped me reevaluate the value and skills I bring to the table. I left the three-day program with renewed interest in collaboration and problem solving as well as a renewed sense of confidence. I can’t wait to go back to another program."

Sheila Hoogeboom, MEd, Director of Business & Credit Programs

"This program was a big help for me. I learned a lot about myself and several simple tools that improved my ability to work with and lead others on my team as well as my clients. I learned how to recognize and set aside some of my own assumptions about people and the challenges we were facing. This has allowed me to see new opportunities and solutions for moving my organization forward.”
