"This course has already been incredibly useful. During the course, I went back to my room one evening and had the opportunity to practice coaching a dear friend who was in turmoil. The results were fantastic."

"I was delighted to be a part of the first Coaching: Engaging Relationships workshop April 14-17. I have been a learner at the Haven for many years and even though the distance is far to travel, I never disappoint myself and always have a rich learning and a meaningful experience. The Coaching workshop provided me an opportunity to crystallize the impact (and pure beauty) on others, of showing up fully present in coaching engagements/conversations. Integrating the Haven approaches and models has been a wonderful complement to my work experience and my learning in the Royal Roads Executive Coaching Certificate program...a real-time opportunity to notch-up skills with deep intrapersonal learning...learning how to be while I do. I can already sense a shift in my approach with others as a business coach and in my close relationships. I was inspired to capture the essence of my own deep learning with a short poem:
|
Winds of transformation blowing gently forward
Currents of energy shifting the sands of time in my internal hour glass
The endless forms of self reflecting and dreaming the future into Now"
