Executive Coaching, is obtained on completion of the 6 days
of Gestalt Skills workshops plus:
- Three hours coaching supervision
taken individually or as part of a group.

Personal Coach Supervision Sessions
The coaching supervision sessions are led by Marjorie Shackleton.
It
is an opportunity for personal exploration through the focus
on your attitudes and reactions to your clients. They offer
a way to continuously develop and hone your skills.
Primary Objectives:
- Supporting the growth and development of the coach.
- Through
the coaching supervision, supporting the clients and their
work.
- Supporting the Gestalt approach of being, of developing
presence so the coach acts as a powerful role model in his
or her work.
- Developing new insights, tools and techniques
for coaching interventions.
- Raising awareness of personal
issues and how they limit your effectiveness.
- Breaking habits
and changing behaviour at a fundamental level.
- Developing
interpersonal sensitivity and skills to a deeper level.
- Developing
a deeper understanding of Gestalt theory and philosophy.
- Understanding
the differences between a therapeutic contract and a coaching
contract and explore the boundaries between them.
Method
There are four methods that are used in the personal coaching
supervision sessions to enhance the learning experience:
- Focusing on the personal experience of the
individual from a cognitive, emotional and behavioural aspect.
- Identifying
the parallel process, which occurs in the participant / supervisor
interaction and the consultant / client experience. For example,
around control issues, the coach may react towards the supervisor
in the same way as the client reacts to them.
- Using creative
experimentation such as role-playing the coach / client situation.
- Carrying
out an ongoing review of work-based case studies.
