The coaching program is anchored in the methodology of the Gestalt Coaching Program, which is an ICF Accredited Coach Training Program, that presents Gestalt-based approach to coaching that incorporates cutting- edge coaching theories from thought leaders worldwide.

This program is founded on core Gestalt values, which hold that it is the awareness of self and others, in the context of aware possibilities, that support choice for intervention and success. A core Gestalt coaching belief is that it is the nature of the coach’s support and presence which assists the client to do the desired work in service of goals that are achievable, believable, concrete, and deliverable.

Based in this methodology, therefore, the experience of a coachee is always unique to the coachee’s needs in terms of specific interventions and tools. Generally topics that will give context to our sessions include authenticity in leadership, values based decision making assertiveness, communication, public speaking, confidence, and navigating complex issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion.

Just a few years ago, organizations were considered progressive by giving any resources to diversity and inclusion learning or initiatives, but now practically every strategic plan puts equity, diversity, and inclusion centre stage. You’re a leader. You became a leader before this was a strategic imperative across Canada, and now you feel like you’re stuck holding the bag. Our leadership coaching frames its approach around the Socratic Method – helping you explore your own thinking and values, surface any assumptions, and consciously reframe the way you think about ideas in the space of equity, diversity and inclusion. Then, helps you cultivate your own authentic path forward as a leader in a new reality of accountability.

Our leadership diversity coaching is YOUR time. To empower YOU. If what you need is a history lesson, to ask “stupid” or non-PC questions, to reflect on your own experiences and world view, or just someone to kick you in the pants to stop whining and start doing – we can do that. Authentic leadership only comes from first understanding yourself and your motivations without judgement. While we hope the world would be an equitable, diverse, and inclusive place tomorrow, we also believe that a rush towards expectations across organizations has left well-meaning folks in positions of influence in a tricky spot. Our coaching creates a space for you to "catch up”.
