Use the MBTI Type framework to provide coaching insights in a wider range of coaching situations including the coach-coachee relationship.
You will learn how to provide Type-related insights in your coaching practice. You will gain experience in applying the MBTI instrument in a range of ways and be provided with related practical tools that enhance your coaching.
Course flow consciously mirrors how coaching works: how at the heart of coaching is the individual, followed by an understanding of how the individual relates to others, and then their effectiveness in an organisational setting.
