Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations have been a transformational journey for me, not only teaching me about coaching but helping me build the skills that I can apply in my daily work. Whether you want to get certified or you just want to learn, you will never look at the world the same way again. It’s like one of those optical illusion games. Once you have seen it, you cannot unsee it!

Joining Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations was the right decision for me. My perception of coaching changed completely thanks to this program. The coaches took us on a wonderful learning journey. I had many light-bulb moments and put a lot of theory into practice (not just from the certification perspective, but real-life too). Highly recommended!

Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations changed the way I show up at work, in my relationships and with myself. Our mentors did an amazing job of introducing us to the subject of coaching from scratch, and guiding us forward by alternating theory with lots of practice. I am beyond grateful to have been part of this program and would highly recommend it.

During Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations I gained an understanding of what coaching is and how transformative it can be. The aspects of coaching that resonated with me as the most valuable were: powerful questioning, cultivating a partnership, deep listening, silence, and using metaphors.

When I initiated the "Unlocking Conversations" course, I had no idea how much this course would augment my learning and how much I would value connections with the instructors and my classmates. I have been stretched in my prior knowledge of coaching, and have greatly gained through the classroom learning opportunities. I would recommend this course to anyone currently coaching, or interested in coaching.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the beautiful gift of coaching.

Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations led me, step by step, to create a coaching mindset thanks to an effective balance between theoretical teaching, supporting materials and practice, always accompanied by professional, open, direct and enlightening feedback! It has been therefore an individual journey on a path of full sharing and discovery of my own potential as a coach and that of my travelling companions.

Full presence with someone, building trust, and listening on verbal, non-verbal, and emotional levels are the skills I had a privilege to build on throughout Unlocking Conversations and Deepening Conversations.
