Organisational Design Programme Manager

Sera has a great style of coaching. She cuts through the noise to get to the core of issues quickly whilst being empathetic and supportive. Sera also supported me with coaching supervision, which was really valuable.

Head of People

Sera has been so amazing, she was not just a mentor but was also a coach who has helped
me reflect proactively (now part of my usual practice) and challenged my perspective where needed. She has given me valuable tools and techniques that I can use not only at work, but also in my personal life. I cannot thank Sera enough for all of her help and support during our sessions.

HR Business Partner NHS

My supervision session with Sera enabled me to develop new insights into my coaching practice. Sera listened carefully and asked powerful questions at just the right time allowing me to really drill down on some of the issues I was experiencing. I was able to gain much needed clarity and develop plans to move forwards.

I particularly appreciated Sera's warm and focused approach to our session. Sera works with integrity and modelled excellent practice throughout the session. I felt both supported and challenged in a stimulating and positive way. I would highly recommend Sera as a supervisor.

Is a Two Day Health Coaching Training course incorporating work-based learning between Day 1 & 2.

About our CPD training.

It’s fair to say that as a therapist, there are times at each appointment with a parent or school that feels like you are repeating the same conversation as previous weeks resulting in no or hardly any improvements made. It becomes frustrating for you the therapist, parents/schools become disengaged and as a service/department the referrals are building with an ever-increasing caseload. It doesn’t have to be this way, there is a solution – Speaking For Results™️ gives you the tools for a better way to engage with parents or in schools.

Typically the role of the Therapist is to share their specialist knowledge followed by sharing resources, strategies and tips after showing the parent/education staff the important dose of specialist therapy with the child/ren. In therapist/child interventions, the parent is often relegated to being an observer and carrying out follow-up activities involving implementing decontextualized activities that focus on skill development.

Rather than create dependency, this 2-day course teaches the therapist how to help the parent/education staff discover what they already know and therefore can do, share new information and ideas. Develop tools to achieve desired outcomes and help the parent/education staff understand the resulting reflections and actions to new/different situations.

Upon successful completion of the training and workbased learning, delegates gain 11 CPD hours which can be included within a formal CPD record for a professional institute, regulator or employer.

CPD ACCREDITED COACHING & MENTORING

You have gained the qualifications, accreditations and attended courses, yet are struggling to know or even understand what type of leader/people manager you are as you lack confidence and self belief in your role.

You are a leader or people manager working in the NHS or an organisation seeking coaching to help in times of change, or a period in your professional/personal life where you feel stuck. Gain 1 CPD hour for every 1 hour coaching session.

Or perhaps mentoring is better suited to your needs as your primary purpose is driving personal growth, building skills, knowledge and understanding.

Mentoring is different to coaching. Its focus is much more on offering suggestions and working through different options. A mentor brings extensive experience, knowledge and influence to assist the mentee in reaching their potential and goals. The mentee brings their own personal challenges and invites the mentor into their own inner dialogue to help provide insight and intellectual challenge to move them towards their goal.

Some of the benefits of having mentoring are:

⦁ Through the knowledge and experience of a mentor, the mentee leapfrogs the learning process, learning to avoid making the same mistakes, by having a personal ‘guide’ who has been through the journey

⦁ Builds confidence, innovation and creativity through being challenged and inspired

⦁ Encourages you to aim higher, step up and take leadership

⦁ A mentor believes in you, will vouch for you, and share their network and knowledge to help support you

⦁ Enables a reflective space for learning

CPD Coaching Supervision

I strongly believe the standard of coaching varies among coaches.
Supervision is a powerful vehicle that demonstrates a signal of professionalism as a coach and also signals a professional approach to the coaches clients. If you are a qualified coach and/or qualified in NLP let's start your supervision journey today.

COACHING SUPERVISION

You are a coach, qualified in Life, Executive, Leadership, Health Coaching or NLP wishing to enhance your coaching compliance so as to maximise your personal and professional potential by addressing the 3 main functions of coaching supervision.

Hawkins & Smith (2006) define 3 main functions of effective coaching supervision as: Qualitative, Development and Resourcing. Coaching Supervision is a must for any qualified coach working and impacting others lives.

If you are a clinician, it is standard practice to have clinical supervision as part of your development. Yet it is less common for coaches to have coaching supervision and adopt the same standard practice for their own development. Whether you are newly qualified or an experienced coach, supervision is essential to keep yourself coaching compliant.

Supervision is considered good practice and offers reassurance to the coach's clients. There is much written and referenced supporting research on coaching supervision.

If you are unfamiliar with how supervision works, it allows and provides the person (coachee) a supportive space to process the experiences they have had when working with their clients. It provides an opportunity to develop the practice of coaching while ensuring the coach is working within their scope of practice.

The ICF identified key benefits for coaches who receive coaching supervision:

⦁ Increased self-awareness
⦁ Greater confidence
⦁ Increased objectivity
⦁ Heightened sense of belonging
⦁ Reduced feeling of isolation
⦁ Increased resourcefulness
