What is Encounter Coaching?
Encounter Coaching is facilitating experiential encounters with Jesus in the coaching session, to transform the heart & thereby change behaviour.
Create Real Transformation
Get started in the exciting world of coaching with this polished and professional course on the coaching fundamentals. It’s a great set of communication and leadership skills for leaders, pastors, counsellors – anyone who wants to go beyond giving trite advice and learn to help others really change.
Designed by Tony Stoltzfus, who has authored a dozen coaching books and trained 1000’s of coaches over 20 years, you’ll be learning from the best. Even better, it’s a course you’ll love taking! The 35 video sessions are nearly all live, unrehearsed coaching demos (instead of talking head lectures) by Tony and his fellow LM trainers.
- Watch master coaches at work in over seven hours of live coaching demos
- Learn in a cohort-based class with peers
- Includes five hours of live practice time with peers
Foundations for Encounter Coaching
Encounter Coaching is built on a foundation of practical coaching skills: the tools and techniques that underlie all types of coaching. In this course, which is a practical introduction to Christian Coaching, we’ll cover skills like:
- Setting up a coaching relationship
- developing SMART goals
- Creating options
- Converting options to action steps
- Intuitive listening
- Asking powerful questions
- Providing healthy accountability
- Overcoming obstacles
How You’ll Learn
This is NOT a video course where you’ll just listen to a lecturer! Instead, you’ll learn through three complementary methods: reading for content, video demos to see and experience the technique, and practice sessions where you’ll try these skills out yourself.
