Event Information
This interactive two-hour webinar offers a rich, practice-informed exploration of group coaching, designed for practitioners seeking to deepen their capability and confidence in working with groups. The session will outline key principles that inform group coaching practice, including relational dynamics, psychological safety, and the role of the coach in navigating multiple perspectives and interactions. It will also consider how group coaching differs from one-to-one coaching and facilitation, with attention to ethical considerations, power dynamics, and inclusion.
The webinar will include a live demonstration of a group coaching conversation, providing an opportunity to observe how a coach works in real time. This will be followed by a facilitated debrief, where participants can reflect on what they noticed, explore links to relevant theory, and consider possible applications to their own practice. The session aims to offer both conceptual input and space for reflection, rather than prescriptive models or definitive approaches.
By the end of the session, participants will:
•Develop a clearer understanding of the distinctive features and value of group coaching
•Gain practical insight into structuring and facilitating group coaching sessions
•Reflect on their own stance and ethical considerations as group coaches
Event Participation
Participants will be invited to volunteer to take part in the live group coaching demonstration, giving them the opportunity to engage directly in the process if they wish.
