Thank you to everyone who attended our first in-person event on Tuesday 23rd April; you could sense the energy radiating around the room. And the biggest thank you to Janine Waldman for introducing us to Solutions Focus and its value in the coaching space.
Through a series of exploratory activities, we got to experience for ourselves the shift in perspective, both as coach and client, when working with Solutions Focus. Through large and small group discussions we shared how much more resourced and empowered we felt, and the joy in the room signified how much more positive and happier people can feel when working with Solutions Focus 🙂
This is what some of our attendees said:
“I enjoyed my first London Coaching Group event last night, receiving a warm welcome when I arrived and appreciating the buzz of entering a room full of coaching enthusiasts! Although I was already familiar with the topic (having been a fan of the SF approach and Janine’s work for a few years now), I really valued having the opportunity to reflect, discuss and practice with fellow coaches.” Kimberley Hovish
“It was so special to be in a room full of passionate coaches yesterday evening! As well as the engaging, interactive and practical content on Solutions Focused Coaching, it was wonderful to feel the energy and dynamism of this being an in-person event. I particularly appreciated the opportunity to chat informally with several people, to make connections and have that sense of camaraderie and support, which you don't get so easily from an online event.” Olivia Sophia Spiro
March Event feedback:
"The series of 4 workshops organised by the London Coaching Group on Inner Work, Outer Impact was amazing. All the speakers were incredible and gave thought-provoking and stimulating talks. I went away from each session feeling invigorated and wanting to explore more. As an inexperienced coach it was very good to realise that my development as a coach is not dependent on the number of tools and Apps that I have in my armamentarium. It is important to focus on myself and to tune in to who I really am to realise the potential of who I really can be." Quen Mok
"Many thanks to the LCG Team and all the excellent speakers on such a thoughtful, insightful and enjoyable 4 sessions on Inner Work: Outer Impact. When I signed up I had high expectations based on last year’s series and these were met again. Each session allowed reflection and discussion on a different aspect of BEING as a coach – our humanity, how we best reflect, harnessing our shadow and building our own capacities. As all of these were grounded in WHO we are and the importance of doing deep self-work. I’m taking away even greater clarity on the direction of my personal development in presence, embodiment and partnering." Mary Farebrother
"This series was a timely reminder that we coaches need to spend time on ourselves and reflect how to find the best possible way of being in order to be able to coach well. Each of the four sessions brought something different and equally important. I loved them all, but perhaps quite specially the one on one's shadow. I think we all went away feeling changed." Susan Doering

Ontological coaching is about coaching to our Way of Being. Our perceptions and attitudes drive our communication and behaviour, and these exist in our Way of Being, often deep-seated and out of awareness. Shifts in these perceptions and attitudes can remove significant barriers to change and create immediate and lasting transformation.
Jeremy will introduce elements of the ontological framework that participants can apply to their real challenges. He will facilitate a series of experiential activities to demonstrate how linguistic and emotional shifts can equip people to adjust and adapt successfully to the challenges that characterise much of everyday work and life.
