SGCP Networking Event - 25th June 2009 http://www.sgcp.org.uk/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=110&threadid=908 2009-05-20T09:32:04 00 helbar 1 Special Group in Coaching Psychology

Measuring the Effectiveness of Coaching Interventions - A Networking Evening Event
Facilitator: Dr Max Blumberg

Date: 25th June 2009 , 6.00pm to 8.30pm
Location: The British Psychological Society, 30 Tabernacle Street, LONDON, EC2A 4UE


Come along to our first SGCP evening event - a very topical discussion combined with an informal networking evening.

Our speaker, Dr. Max Blumberg (www.maxb.com) will be talking about how to prove the value of workforce performance improvement interventions such as coaching and then using this information to improve effectiveness. During the session, Max has offered to help a few audience members develop coaching measures for their own practices as a means of illustrating the simplicity of the approach.

As you can see from the above web link, Max has a wealth of experience regarding this subject on which to draw and emphasises that coaching measurement is a journey; no one starts out perfectly, but to prove the value of your coaching, you need at some point to get onto the measurement train. The evening should therefore provide plenty of thought provoking morsels on which to chew.

Other morsels served will be light refreshments!

So come along and meet Max and network with other coaching psychologists over a glass of something.

The cost is £10 for SGCP members and £15 for non-members. Space is limited to 40 delegate's only so book now to avoid disappointment.

We look forward to welcoming you!

SGCP event May 2009 http://www.sgcp.org.uk/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=110&threadid=879 2009-05-06T12:04:18 00 philhain 2

 

 
THE SSPECIAL GROUP IN COACHING PSYCHOLOGY

 

Professor Ernesto Spinelli Presents:

Working With Uncertainty - An Existential Perspective for Coaching Psychologists

 

A one day workshop to be held at the

BPS London Office, Tabernacle Street, London.

22nd May 2009

11am-5pm

Registration from 10.30am

 

As a result of the current world-wide economic crisis, responding to and living with uncertainty has become a particularly relevant issue for leaders, managers and organisations This workshop will present key ideas from existential psychology focused on the issues raised by uncertainty as it pertains to coaching within organisations. It will address how to draw out and work with the (often) implicit fears and concerns experienced by coachees when facing uncertainty so that the creative and constructive possibilities of uncertainty may be enhanced and incorporated into both organisational practice and identity.  This will be done through both theoretical and case study discussion and practical exercises. Participants are strongly encouraged to bring their own case material for discussion.

 

You will learn:

 

- Key principles from existential theory that are pertinent to coaching in general and to issues related to uncertainty and meaning in particular.

 

- Practical ways of working existentially within a coaching framework with particular emphasis on the exploration of uncertainty

 

- How to utilise the coaching relationship itself as a means of clarifying the coachee’s experience of uncertainty.

 

 It is particularly relevant in the current climate of uncertainty and change.

 

Professor Ernesto Spinelli has gained an international reputation as one of the leading contemporary trainers and theorists of existential analysis as applied to psychology and psychotherapy and, more recently, the related arena of coaching, and conflict mediation. He is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society (BPS) as well as a founding member of the BPS Special Group in Coaching Psychology and an APECS accredited executive coach and coaching supervisor.

 

 

For booking information and to download a booking form please see the

‘News Page’ of the SGCP website www.sgcp.org.uk or please contact

Tracy White, Email: [email protected]

Each attendee will receive a Workshop attendance certificate as evidence for CPD Logbooks or Practitioner-in-Training Logbooks.

The coaching psychology 2009 conference http://www.sgcp.org.uk/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=110&threadid=834 2009-03-19T06:14:08 00 AlisonW 1 Hi there

I'm part of the group that's organising this years conference, and thought I'd take the opportunity of getting your input - whilst we still have some time to shape things.

We're hosting the conference at Royal Holloway univerisyty, Egham (15th and 16th December)

The title is changing perspectives - with a number of topical themes.

We think that developing a stronger sense of community as coaching psychologists is helpful

What I'm curious to know is:

What are the ideas that you have that may strengthen the sense of community at the conference?

What would make our conference 'unmissable' for you?

Really looking forward to hearing from you.
