Learning from our coaching mistakes:

Coaches are human beings and we face necessary risks frequently during our coaching process. Sometimes, we will make mistakes, even some serious mistakes but this doesn't prevent us from facing the risks and we can still carry on reflectively & intelligently the coaching assignment with our authenticity & professionalism.

This special workshop is an opportunity for us to learn from each other and especially from our past mistakes. We grow by admitting, understanding and transforming our past mistakes. Read more (link)
