Demonstration of wrapping up after a 'learning pause' in coaching/mentoring - 22 April 2021 @ 18.30 CEST (16:30 UTC)

Working as a coach with cancer patients, I often agree with my clients to close after a pause of 2-3 months. My clients often say they find this useful. It keeps a connection with support and provides freedom to explore and adapt to uncertainty.

I used this approach with a colleague as we were undertaking peer coaching in support of using the coaching tool 'Neilswheel' in the context of climate change.

Join our session in April to close out after a learning pause.

NOTE: due to the confidential nature of this live demonstration this session will NOT be recorded and will not be available to view after the event.
