What support would you like to develop your practice as a coaching psychologist? And would this come from the SGCP or elsewhere?

Reflective practice group

SueBurnell — 2009-03-11T15:08:13 00

Two places are available in this London based group that I belong to, which explores the dilemmas, paradoxes and ethical issues we encounter in our work. We are consultants and coaches who work into organizations.

We meet monthly for two hours on Tuesday afternoons at a venue near to Swiss Cottage tube. The group size is between 5 and 8 members. I find the sessions both supportive and informative - it is rare to have the opportunity to compare experiences with peers of working "into" organisations of different types. The sessions count as continuing professional development.

The group is led by Christine Thornton, whose book on "Group and Team Coaching" is about to be published by Routledge. More information about the group, costs and an application form is available on her website www.thorntonconsulting.org http://www.thorntonconsulting.org>

Regards, Sue Burnell

Request for Speakers

VickyEllamDyson — 2009-01-27T10:53:40 00

Hi all

Ruth Raven of the Standing Conference Committee (SCC) at the BPS is looking for recommendations for speakers for their annual conference. Posted below is the request from Ruth. Please note that whilst the request focuses on very research focused speakers I have since clarified with her that they are open also to speakers who can discuss practice as well as reasearch. In fatc this is something that they are keen to increase.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keynote speakers - for our Society Annual Conference
these people should be outstanding in their field of research, someone who would attract and engage a wide audience, they may be international or from the home nations.

Speakers for the student lectures
these people should be able to engage with an audience of students, mainly A-level and under-graduate, presenting up-to-date research or methods which can link in to the current curriculum. They should be from the home nations, the student lectures are unable to fund international speakers.

The BPS Conference office at the Society propose to hold a database of potential speakers names for future events and you will be contacted if one of your speakers accepts our invitation for a particular conference.

Please forward your nominations in the following format:

Name
Affiliation
Key research area
Keynote/student lecture speaker (please delete as appropriate)

Our deadline for receiving this information is Saturday 14th February 2009. Please reply to [email protected]
