ECS awards first Team Coaching Mastery diplomas
The ECS training approach is experiential learning with input on theories and frameworks.
Executive Coach Studio welcomes the “graduation” of the first cohort of coaches achieving its Diploma in Team Coaching Mastery.
The group of seven highly experienced executive coaches completed the 8-month course last month.
ECS principal and course leader Georgina Woudstra said: “I am very proud of all of them. It has been an intense and challenging programme and I believe they are all now equipped to take on the complex role of coaching whole teams in both the private and public sectors.”
The ECS Diploma in Team Coaching Mastery is a 12-day, four-module course for established executive coaches, which takes place in Winchester in the UK.
It has been designed by Georgina, an ICF Master Certified Coach, to deepen knowledge, skills and practice in the fast-growing area of coaching senior executive teams.
Jonathan Webb, Managing Partner at Clarity Associates who received his diploma in December commented: “The course covers a comprehensive syllabus, allowing students to explore a broad range of subjects and giving them the ability to design a coaching programme that best fits with their personal needs.
“It allows the time for students to learn and further research the course material and helps provide practical feedback on the shape of the coaching programme that students design for themselves,” he said.
The course comprises Team Coaching Fundamentals, Relational Team Coaching, Psychology of Teams and Integrating Team Coaching. The ECS training approach is experiential learning with input on theories and frameworks. There is a strong focus on practising and “being” a team coach.
All participants are required to run small team coaching exercises, practising delivering and receiving team coaching with constructive and robust observational feedback throughout.
The next Diploma in Team Coaching Mastery course with availability begins on February 21.
