For: Coaches, teachers, facilitators, leaders, and healers who want to lead groups or improve their facilitation skills

When:  Thursday February 17, 2022 from 4:00pm - 6:00pm MT 

Do you want to try coaching a group, but don’t know where to start?
What if you could develop the mindset and skills to confidently:

• Share the gifts of coaching with a wider audience
• Use your time more purposefully and earn more money
• Build community around your coaching practice

There are many skills and aspects of the consciousness that goes into holding space skillfully to facilitate individual and community growth. However there are two skills which you must learn in a live interactive setting to master group coaching:

1) Developing a coaching presence in a group

2) Cultivating trust and safety in a group

Cultivating trust and safety within groups is much more complex than with individuals. It requires slowing things down, paying additional attention to group dynamics, and skillfully exploring tensions that arise between members. 

While you may already have an open, flexible, grounded, and confident presence with individuals, with groups you'll need a more expansive awareness, compassion, and patience. Facilitators learn to track all participants, invite them to stay in presence with you and each other, and support growth.

In this class, you'll receive a sample of what we'll cover in the 8 week class "Learn to coach groups from deep presence, cultivating trust and insight."

This class will be interactive, including practices to demonstrate the topics. Please be prepared to participate with your video on and avoid multi-tasking during this time.

Microaggressions reinforce systemic inequality, and lead to alienation in relationships and between organizations. To support your organization in developing relationships across racial and cultural differences, and to build a more inclusive and equitable community, this workshop will give members confidence, skills, and practice at repairing relationships when members make microaggressions, or similar mistakes that reinforce systemic inequities. This will help further your JEDI mission, including hearing from a diversity of voices and promoting social and economic justice.

Benefits of workshop

• Renew one's commitment and build courage to connect across differences
• Practice a way to calm the nervous system if stress begins to rise
• Learn a process to acknowledge microaggressions and empathize with the receiver of the microaggression
• Practice the process with a role play, share feedback
• Build common language and practices within your organization
• With more skills and practice, you’ll be more confident taking risks to connect across differences, knowing it’s ok if you "mess up" and you can use these skills to ‘fix it up’

To support organizations in developing relationships across racial, economic, and cultural differences, and to be more inclusive and equitable, this workshop will: 

• Explain how societal power differences create obstacles to equitable partnerships
• Share a model of ‘power with’ relations rather than ‘power over / power under’
• Provide key skills to establish more equitable relationships, one conversation at a time

Primary Benefits: 

1) Participants will gain insight into 

how power differentials affect relationships and collaborations across racial, economic, cultural, and other differences. 

2) Participants will learn and practice skills to introduce them to: 

• Clarifying intention and impact
• Self connection

• Listening to understand underlying values
• Connecting based on values to develop solutions
