Why would I invite “the exact opposite of an Executive Coach” and, as her clients describe her, “a witch” to speak on workshops work?
Because Laura Beckingham is a beautifully clear-minded thinker who has provided me with more provocation, intrigue, and inspiration than most people I have known in life!
As a highly-experienced Systemic Coach, Laura uses constellations (and many other practices) to create space for reflection and change for Executive teams and leaders.
If some, or all, of those words are unclear to you, Laura has an enviable talent for explaining the complexities of Systemic coaching with perfect clarity and nuance.
What I am absolutely clear on is the fact you will find a lot of value in this episode of workshops work. I can’t wait for you to hear it!
Find out about:
• What Systemic coaching is
• How families and businesses share some similarities
• Why long-term change has to be holistic and made within the context of a person’s entire life
• Why Systemic Coaches – and facilitators in general – are a constant work in progress
• How alchemy, physicality, and incrementality combine to create great coaching
