How Reflective Practice helps me to be a better coach?

Reflective Practice is a key means by which coaches review, reflect on and improve their coaching.

As a coach, do you ever wonder: “What might I have done differently?”, “What was the learning for me?” or “How can I improve my coaching?”

Reflective Practice helps a coach turn their knowledge and experience into wisdom, and use that wisdom going forwards in their practice.

It’s a vital part of the Coach’s continuous professional development and improvement of what they do and how they do it. Reflection on values, beliefs, approaches, and ethics can help coaches become more responsive to the backgrounds and needs of their coachees.  

This webinar series will explore how Reflective Practice creates an opportunity for critical analysis and ideas about “what I might have done differently and what can I do better in the future, based on these reflections?”

In this webinar series you will learn:

• Why Reflective Practice matters
• When and how to use Reflective Practice skills
• Practical tools to enhance your Reflective Practice
• How to enrich and sustain your Reflective Practice

The presenters will provide the opportunity for live Q&A in each session.
