Workshop Description

Becoming a mentor is challenging and rewarding in equal measures. It is challenging as you have responsibility to be as knowledgeable and enthusiastic about recent developments in coaching and coach education.

It is rewarding because, as a mentor, you will have opportunities to articulate your own perspective, views and beliefs about coaching to another coach, effectively reflecting on your own thinking and practice. As the mentor to another coach you will inevitably become involved with their delivery of coaching, touching along the way on personal and professional activities associated with the coach’s development.

Furthermore this interaction will stimulate your own understanding of coaching, bringing professional activity and debate into the process. In conclusion, there is a profit for both parties engaged in a mentoring process and it should be appreciated that this is an exciting and demanding context in which a coach can develop professionally.
