Leadership Coach Training
Leadership coach training is designed for those
who wish to understand and incorporate
essential coaching skills into their own
vocation or leadership style.
Leadership Calling offers two distinct
Christian leadership training programs:
Group Leadership
Coach Training
This Christian leadership training program is
for administrative or adjudicatory leaders
genuinely interested in equipping their key
personnel with essential coaching skills in
order to strengthen their leadership
contribution. The result is greater cohesion
and health in the organizational culture.
This seven month program can be customized to
meet the needs and fit the size of your
particular organization. The group training
program was initially developed in 2005 for the
Florida Conference of Seventh Day Adventists and
due to its significant success has since been
expanded within the Florida Conference. In March
of 2007 the program is to be rolled out to the
Georgia Cumberland Conference of the Seventh Day
Adventists.
Focus of the
Leadership Coach Training Program
It is increasingly recognized that strong
coaching skills are central to effective
leadership in today’s world, especially as
top-down styles of leadership lose their
effectiveness.
Acknowledging the importance of leadership
skills is an important first step, but real
world observation tells us that few leaders
move beyond the awareness stage.
Coach training provides the hands-on method
needed to insure leaders begin to actually
practice and develop core leadership skills
such as:
- Listening well
- Asking powerful questions
- Affirming positive contributions
- “Naming” or identifying core issues
- Confronting key problems skillfully
- Clarifying foundational values, and
- Establishing a compelling vision
Through the range of activities provided by this
Christian leadership training program, each
participant is well-positioned to begin
mastering these vital leadership skills and
strengthen the organizations they serve.
More importantly, the group of leaders who
complete this program will be equipped to
function better as a team because they have
acquired the skills together and deepened their
relationships through the process.
Essentials of the Leadership Coach Training
Program
The training program incorporates the top
methods for transformational learning. The seven
month program entails a balance of:
- 3 two-day seminars,
- 4 two-hour group learning sessions,
- 12 individual coaching sessions,
- Engaging activities, and
- Rich reading assignments,
Since experience is the richest tool for
learning and growth, program attendees will also
provide coaching for two of their own people as
a foundational part of their learning.
Participants will receive feedback on their
coaching activities during the program,
deepening their learning.
By including training seminars, coaching and
being coached, rich reading material, and
interactive group learning sessions spread
throughout the program, participants are
immersed in the learning experience and have the
greatest likelihood of lasting change and
improved leadership functioning.
To reduce your travel expenditures and insure
that participants fully benefit from the full
program regardless of their location, group
learning sessions are conducted via
teleconference calls, and coaching sessions are
phone based. Class size for this Christian
leadership training program depends on the needs
and experience of the group but requires at
least 6 members and is limited to no more than
18. The overall size of the group will be
determined by the degree of coaching experience
among the group members.

Individual Coach
Training
This training is customized for the individual
depending on their experience level. It is
intended for you if you want to be more grounded
in key coaching competencies in your leadership
role, or if you would like to substantially grow
in your skills as a professional coach. We will
evaluate your aspirations, challenges and
current skill level and from there develop an
action plan for you to develop the skills
essential to your effectiveness and success.
A key component of your growth will be the
coaching work you will be doing as a part of
your training. In this robust training process,
we will draw upon valuable readings, our
personal model of the coaching process, your own
coaching work, guided discussions and coaching
role-plays to help you gain the mastery you
seek.
To learn about the possibilities around
individual coach training, we encourage you to
contact us for an exploratory discussion without
obligation.
