From: Tom Stone

To: All accomplished and aspiring coaches

It first started as a dialogue between myself and Michael Stratford, Master Certified Coach and author of the Master Coach Series on coaching skills. We were discussing, analyzing and closely examining precisely what is needed to train powerfully effective coaches who are also highly successful in their own businesses.

Over the course of our discourse, we came to a somewhat startling conclusion: while there are many terrific coach training programs available today, there remains a significant void. This void, when examined at face value, seems so obvious and yet so overlooked that it's actually quite amazing that it's not addressed more frequently.

What is this void that Michael and I
discovered in our discourse?

It's the stark reality of you. Or more specifically, your own core dynamics, and the roadblock these perpetually create to the self-actualization of your clients. Unless you develop and utilize the ability to "get out of your own way", come to terms with the deeply rooted realities that lie dormant in your own past, and take purposeful steps to clear them, you'll continue to be considered just one more coach in the ever-expanding ocean of average coaches. There will be no way to differentiate and distance yourself from the other coaches whose own core dynamics are holding them back as well.

Coaches who don't have a firm grasp of how their own core dynamics can act as a tinted window on their view of their clients' life pictures are consistently relegated to scenarios like these:

  • Imposing your client's agenda: "Am I a consultant doing the telling or am I truly coaching?"

  • The money issue: "Will people be willing to pay for my coaching?"

  • Marketing: "How do I get clients when I hate to sell?"

  • Parenting: "How do I support clients in following through and not be the mom/dad?"

  • Knowing the value: "How do I know my clients are really getting what they need?"

Conversely, the ones who truly excel in this field are those who have learned to let go of their core dynamics and live a daily life of self-worth, of seeking the greater good and of setting examples for those they live with and coach. It is then and only then that they can be true coaches to others.

These are the success stories!

These are the elite coaches in the industry!

It was this revelation that allowed us to craft the ideal union of the Core Dynamics and the ICF Core Competencies in order to train coaches in the most effective way possible.

Introducing the Core Dynamics Coach
Training & Certification Program

Core Dynamics Coach Training explores all 12 Core Dynamics in great depth with special emphasis on learning how to ask the questions that draw out the dynamics and learning to coach people using all five Pure Awareness Techniques.

You will also have “buddy coaching” with other members of the training program so that you can practice coaching using these extraordinary tools and techniques to remove barriers to being the best possible person and Core Dynamics Coach that you can be. This is a wonderful experience that transforms your life by removing the insidious limiting influences of your conditioning.

And that’s just the first round of benefits! Core Dynamics Coach Training gives coaches the ability to use Core Dynamics work while helping their own clients remove the obstacles blocking the road between them and their destination.

If you’ve read this far then I’m sure you’re starting to see the raw power and limitless potential that this program can have with both your clients and yourself.

How Does the ICF Fit Into This Equation?

The International Coach Federation (ICF) has quickly become known as the premier organization for certifying coaches that have a high skill level and the ethics and integrity that the public can count on. Blending the Core Dynamics and the Core Competencies for optimal effect was one of those rare synergies, like capturing lightning in a bottle. It was truly a thrilling day when this synergy was discovered!

Once the Core Dynamics that obstruct great coaching are out of the way (which really means the coach is out of the way) the business of getting down to the coaching can begin. The second phase of training is built around ICF Core Competencies (masterful elements of coaching, distilled by an international group of coaches) and is a precursor to ICF certification.

The Core Competencies are delivered in two modalities: Live In-person Training and Live Internet Classroom. This combination gives people the ability to deliver their coaching either by the phone, over the web or in person. It has the benefit of eliminating some of the travel usually involved in taking a full training program.

All sessions both in person and via the web will by led by both Michael and myself, and involve a weaving in of the Core Dynamics work while focusing directly on the skill set at hand. We have observed that the synergy of being and doing practiced together creates the foundation for true mastery. We also believe that it is truly difficult to master riding a horse unless you get on it. To that end, there is a strong element of in-course practice to support the integration of skills so they become second nature.

Here are the Exact Details of What You’ll Learn

Core Dynamics Coaching is structured to develop four areas of who you are as a person and as a coach:

  1. You’ll be guided to more directly experience your essential nature and remove the barriers to fully living and enjoying who you really are

  2. You’ll cultivate new ways of being based on living from your essential nature

  3. You’ll generate a thriving business as one expression of who you really are

  4. You’ll become a master of coaching by being grounded in who you really are through guided practice

Level 1 (64 hours)

The Core Dynamics - this course of 24 hours is the first and highest priority with its focus on your personal development. It's all about removing the Core Dynamics from your life and becoming grounded in your essential nature. It is a prerequisite to the Core Competencies coaching skills training part of the program.
Learn the penetrating insights of all the 12 Core Dynamics and the powerful 5 Pure Awareness Techniques that are used to address them.
This includes learning the Core Dynamics Coaching protocol, a simple and very specific series of steps that guide each coaching session and insure a rapid and profound result.
Master the Human Software Engineering Code Checking Tool that allows you to check for discrepancies between your client's thinking and their knowing. You will also learn how to inquire deeply enough to find what is really blocking your clients from fulfilling their desires, and then discover exactly what to do to support the rapid and complete resolution of such blocks.
The Core Competencies - this phase of 40 hours is focused on the 11 ICF Core Competencies and is skills-based.
ICF Credential preparation. We do our best to prepare you for ICF credentialing, including practice coaching with feedback, case studies, and written tests.
Level 1 covers the 60 hrs. coach training component required by the ICF for their Associate Credentialed Coach designation. The 100 hours of client coaching experience are the responsibility of the participant.

 

How is it all delivered?

Level 1 begins with an in-person four day workshop. The first three days (24 hours) are learning the Core Dynamics model and coaching techniques with a fourth day (8 hours) dedicated to the beginnings of the Core Competencies training.

The additional hours on the Core Competencies (32) will be delivered via live webinar format. There will be 2 one-hour webinars per week over a period of four months following the initial live event.

The webinar is rapidly replacing the teleclass as a preferred distance learning modality. Like teleclasses webinars allow you to cut travel costs and time while having the added benefit of being able to participate from your computer. In addition there are no long distance phone charges and the webinar environment allows for many advantages such as PowerPoint presentations, graphics, a whiteboard more real time annotations and the ability for participants to record the entire session right on their computer. You can even attend in your shorts if you like, we won't know. This learning modality is almost completely weatherproof as well requiring only internet access and an appropriate headset or microphone & speakers connected to your computer. A webinar is led by 1 or 2 moderators and all participants simply log in to the appropriate web site at the designated time. The webinars last 60 minutes and participants are required to attend ALL 60 minutes in order to get credit.

Core Dynamics Coach Training Intro

What are people saying about Core Dynamics Coaching?
Here's what people are saying about this extraordinary breakthrough in coach training:

He immediately caught himself...

"As a trainer of coaches, I am always listening for coaching mistakes. Of the thousands of coaching sessions I have listened to the average level of mistakes is about 20 per 1/2 hour coaching call. When I had my first full hour coaching session with Tom Stone, he made only one coaching mistake, but then he immediately caught himself and corrected it. I was really amazed.

I've even flown out to San Diego to spend a day with him -- and I go out again next weekend. (I say this because I'm a frugal guy and if he wasn't this good, I wouldn't go to all this trouble.)"

Thomas Leonard-Founder of CoachVille


I threw away every other coaching strategy...

"After attending the Core Dynanmics training in Phoenix, I threw away every other coaching strategy and tool I've ever learned because I don't need them anymore. People are coming from all over for appointments and are reporting changes of mind-blowing proportions. There is no way to overstate the importance of the Core Dynamics training for coaching. If you are a coach or anyone for that matter, you will want to attend."

Wendy Down-Coach-Brantford, Ontario

 


The Core Dynamics material is excellent.

"The Core Dynamics material is excellent. In a very simple way, Tom presents how we may have come to some wrong conclusions in the pastand how we can now update our perspectives to be more successful and effective both in business and in life.

What I found particularly useful is the idea that feeling things fully is actually the key to a powerful way of being. We often think as business people that logic and intellect should be the only driver for business; but Tom points out how much power is available to us when we use all of who we are, including our emotions. Tom is a great presenter. His style is open, relaxed and totally supportive of the participants. Tom actually models the viewpoint he is presenting: he makes the class all about the students."

Val Williams-Master Certified Coach
