How to Be a Powerful Direct Communicator without Crossing the Line

Join Senior Faculty and ICF Global Board Director, Marilyn O’Hearne, MSW, MCC to advance your coaching (and your coaching business) by flexing your potentially powerful Direct Communication muscle.

Course Objectives

  1. Clarify what it means to use language that has the greatest positive impact on the client given cultural variations.
  2. Learn to move beyond Active Listening to reframing and sharing intuition; how and when to interrupt.
  3. Playing with metaphors to bridge the known and unknown, leading to awareness and “aha” moments.
  4. Demonstrate being direct without being directive.
  5. Understand how this competency relates to all the other ICF core competencies.
