2. coaching a live session
3. mentoring a PCC recorded session
4. coaching then discussing- with the focus of both being on establishing the agreement
5. assessing Tony Latimer MCC live session & and breaking it down, showing us where and how the competencies and markers played out and in regard to the fascinating "coaching without models" he was teaching us
6. coaching session with 2 other MCCs, Janet Harvey MCC & Annie Gelfand MCC, all coaching same client, one after the other, picking up where the other left off
7. coaching Annie Gelfand MCC and being coached by Annie. In these two Certification Prep calls, each session was live, they debriefed both sessions, talked about process, answered my questions etc.

Be sure to read about the calls, all the different specifics and participant take-aways below!

Call #1

Fran will be reviewing Erin's coaching session that just passed the ICF MCC exam under the new BARS assessment method.
Erin Owen is the new Master Coach who is very generously allowing us to utilize her session in this valuable way!

WHY IS THIS OF INTEREST TO A COACH?

• We will listen and learn from Erin’s masterful use and weaving in of the ICF competencies during this recorded MCC exam session.

Yes, we've been so fortunate to listen to other sessions that have passed the Master Coaching exam. 

But this is the FIRST TIME EVER that we will listen to an ICF MCC exam session and explore it in this way.

• The extraordinary Fran Fisher is a Master's Master. As a Master coach, MCC mentor coach and assessor, she will break down the recorded session, explain the what, the why and the how according to the ICF competencies and markers etc.
• Fran’s feedback makes things clear and comprehensible. It deepens our experience and understanding of masterful coaching and how to apply the learning.
• Fran will talk to us about the latest guidelines with the ICF assessments as well as answer our questions.
• And Erin will also be there to answer any questions Fran (or we!) may have for her.

Coaching Scenario: This client is a business executive turned entrepreneur and he’s been the MCC's (Erin Owen) coaching client since 2018.

Coaching Topic: He feels that he's now in a place where he can take the time and energy to focus on what’s going on within himself and what he’s feeling in his body. He’s experiencing pain in his back and wants to really feel it and explore what that’s about.

Some of the participant's take-aways:

• It was a really interesting session and very helpful to hear from Fran and the MCC “anchors”; she highlighted 
• That getting my MCC is possible for me!
• Having the transcript and the ICF eval are so helpful
• Interesting discussion of the assessor’s suggested further exploration beyond the client’s current situation to deepen awareness and address potential obstacles to client growth.
• Greater depth of understanding of what’s important to demonstrate in an MCC submission
• a new distinction: the qualitative difference between Providing Space for the client versus Leveraging Silence/Space
• It's always tremendous to have Fran!  I feel she is practically ICF itself.  So, what she says is like hearing what we need to know straight from the horse’s mouth. 
• The importance of challenging the client and finding out what they’re discovering at the moment.
• It was helpful to observe this coaching of the Who and then to hear Fran's Assessor feedback - thank you.
• Taking partnership, a lot further than I have been doing - right down to getting the client to plan the exploration, rather than asking the client where they want to start and then going straight into it.  These are much more expansive question.
• Nice demonstration of the more recent ICF evaluation method utilizing a Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale across six competency areas, with additional qualifiers assessing ethical practice and coaching mindset.
• Another really great coaching demonstration format this month!  Thanks!
• Super session, thanks Gail. I learnt heaps and loved the feeling of camaraderie. I’ve been floundering around with trying to orientate myself towards my MCC for a while, but it’s so hard to know what the best route is and what’s on offer. I’m so appreciative of keeping abreast of what’s happening in our field through calls like these e.g. the BARS (that was news to me!),
• Language used by ICF regarding how the feedback is to be used.
• deepen my clients personal learning.
• It was so informative on so many levels (BARS, getting to hear a recording that passed and to hear Fran’s comments and feedback to Erin ) 
• That there’s a wonderful community out there also finding their way with this....feeling a bit more supported by being part of this.
• Gratitude for MMC offering a first of this kind of learning; Terms of PCC Markers Vs MCC
• Specific examples of questions for BARS; The need to dig deeper; check in more frequently and ask where they want to go, what they are learning and how one can apply what they are learning moving forward.

• "The use of inquiry structure to keep the question alive."
• "The "discipline" of "holding back" on the part of the coach"

Some of the participant take-aways:

• Hearing an assessor’s (Fran’s) feedback about this session was invaluable. I picked up so many useful tips for strengthening my own coaching!
• I need to become more aware of my coaching patterns that may not be supporting the client.
• I’ll be making sure my questions are truly open-ended and that I’m not leading the client in any way.
• I loved the way Lynn set up the call in the beginning; she went deep, clarified and explored the agenda really quickly, it took it to another level. I also like that she explored all the possible options of where the session could go. I’m also taking away Lynn’s soft, yet strong/confident presence, and use of/paraphrasing of the clients own words, because of that it felt like she tracked well with the client.
• I need to become more aware of my coaching patterns that may not be supporting the client.
• Opened my eyes to the nuances as well, really interesting and would love to hear more!
• I found Fran’s very specific constructive feedback followed then by how it might have been done differently unbelievably helpful.
• Great examples of how not to lead the client.
• Questions to ask that invite the client to do the work.
• Wow Gail I got so much that I can implement right away. Helped me see where I need and want to grow. 
• Fran’s specificity helped me see very clearly what it is in my own coaching I need to work on. Watch out for those leading questions and acknowledging sounds or comments!
• I found Lynn to be very present with her client and I felt the connection. I appreciated the way she checked in with the client and would repeatedly reflect back what she was hearing.
• I will transcribe that entire debriefing.
• Must always confirm with the client re my observations otherwise makes client feel that I’m right or that I think I am!
• I’ll be making sure my questions are truly open-ended and that I’m not leading the client in any way.
• Feel like I got a peek behind the scenes, the inner workings so to speak. I have a page full of takeaways.

Call #4

This was a different kind of MMC call.

Establishing the Coaching Agreement is where many coaches can get tripped up and can be the main reason for not passing the ICF exam. So this call is dedicated to exploring and delving deeply into this core competency as well as hearing Fran demonstrating it at the master level in a real coaching session with one her clients.

Fran says there are three things that are typically challenging at the MCC level regarding Establishing the Coaching Agreement, and they are KEY to the conversation:
1. HOW to take the client’s exploration DEEPER for their underlying issue and taking the time to do so 
2. Measuring for success
3. Inviting the client to lead

Get ready to take this competency to the next level!

As special bonuses Fran gave us an additional 30 minutes to do this, she gave a hand-out which is a wonderful reource and the call provides 1.5 CEU's.

Some of the participant take-aways:

• I am so very impressed at how Fran established that agreement! I have never heard such an in depth demo on the clarity and depth that could come out of establishing the agreement to that extent. Wow. That was very insightful. I now have a beautiful example of what to strive for, to really be of service to my clients.
• Competency 2 is pivotal in going deeper with the client to hear what’s important or meaningful for that person
• Don’t step over the energy shifts, incongruencies, as this is an opportunity to dive deeper
• It’s not linear and Fran circled back to each [PCC] marker until the client was really clear and grounded in the agreement
• Who is the client being in relation to the focus or issue they are bringing to the call.
• Realising how I might be/ am leading clients - Having measures always with numbers - instead of how the client would measure where they are. 
• Moving from coaching the “What” to coaching the “Who”; the client. 
• Changing how I respond to the client’s answer to: How will you know if you have gotten your outcome?
• Amazing demonstration and learning on how important it is to be patient and meet the client where they are, to fully explore what the client wants to achieve and the motivation underneath in defining the coaching agreement. 
• How overlooked the coaching agreement can be! How very important it is in defining and focusing the area(s) of coaching on what the client really wants. It IS the coaching!
• Really nail it down and confirm topic, motivation, and outcome before moving on.
• This was an extremely helpful call and a great reminder to up my game!

Some participant take-aways:

• ​My readiness for getting my MCC and how helpful it is to hear masterful coaches in action to support this process
• WOW. This back-to-back experience was interesting. I was very impressed by all three coaches using their intuition in knowing not to let the client retell her story that she has told herself for many years; with the intention to keep her moving/looking forward, instead of talking about the barriers (which is what she kept going back to).  I also really appreciated all the acknowledgment of the client that the coaches gave her. I felt like she really needed that, being that she was experiencing such grief.
• I loved the creativity in the coaches’ intervention. We learned so much about the client in such a short time.  Use of silence when the client says I don’t know.
• The potential of using the technique of 3 coaches for one client session. Great tool to use in teaching and mentoring coaches on how to stay focused and present while capitalizing on creativity and spontaneity.
• The tag team coaching was amazing. All three coaches were excellent.
•  Being present for your client is of the utmost importance. Allowing them to know and understand you are there for them.
•  Expanded possibilities about what “masterful coaching” sounds like.
• Respectfully pausing a client when they are retelling an old story or getting into the details helps build awareness in service of what the client really wants.
• Hearing the depth of emotion underlying the client’s desire and going there skillfully with the coaching.
• I appreciate being able to hear 3 MCCs in one and I especially appreciated their reflections after the call regarding what they chose not to delve in to given the allotted time as well as the perspective about when/how to interrupt the client when they are repeating or getting in to details.
• Focusing on strengths when the client keeps going back to self criticism and having the client move to empowerment.
• The transition between coaches was quite smooth. I was wondering how it would work, but it came off masterly.
• Establishing quick rapport and ease of making client free to disclose
• To allow space,
• Also found it interesting how seamless the 3 coaches worked together.
• Inspired by Joy + inspiration to coach “seniors”

Call #6

Are you always wanting to better serve your clients by becoming a more masterful coach?
 If so, get ready to strike gold!

Introducing a Revolutionary, Brand New Way of Coaching!

Coaching Without Models involves connecting the client and the coach's subconscious in order to have a deeper, more lasting breakthrough, faster! 

Think you've seen it all? You will be pleasantly surprised!

Master Coach Tony Latimer demonstrated his unique and powerful way of Coaching Without Models for the first time on a Moore Master Coaching demonstration call. During the debrief, he began to touch on the real power behind it all, which he had never shared with external coaches before. 

Coaches found it compelling and were left wanting more!

So in this masterclass, Tony (via use of the transcript) did a deep dive debrief! He peeled back the layers and evaluated what actually happened at the subconscious level during that coaching session. 

We were joined by Fran Fisher, one of the world's top MCC, ICF assessor, and mentor coaches! She analyzed Tony's coaching for us against the ICF competencies. Priceless!

GET READY: to walk into a new world and walk away with a better understanding of:

• The power of connecting the coach and the clients’ subconscious
• Advanced listening to get to a deeper level
• How to discern triggers at the instinctive level
• The trap doors that lead to the subconscious
• Three steps to clarity
• How to become more masterful

You WILL RECEIVE:

• First in-depth look at Tony's Coaching Without Models, with examples from a real-world demonstration
• The benefit of two great minds and masterful coaches
• The live experience and answers to your questions
• The transcript of the coaching demo from October
• The recording of this January Event with Tony for study and review
• The ICF and/or BCC CEU
• The bragging rights to say you were there when...!

P.S. World renowned Master Coach, trainer and best-selling author Dr. Marcia Reynolds MCC is a big fan of Tony's Coaching Without Models. She actually mentioned it in her WBECS 2021 pre-summit class and urged coaches to ask Tony about it. Finally, we were able to do just that!

Some of the PARTICIPANT'S FEEDBACK:

“Like Amy (PCC coach on the call), I too was blown away between the inputs from Tony, his explanation of his process and his rationale for his moves and then with Fran’s exquisite deployment of the science and art of MCC coaching. It was an incredible medley. Like Amy I would relish more of these kinds of deconstructions. It really was food for my soul and dare I say subconscious. I learnt so much from this recording and analysis of Tony’s transcript.” ~ Tara Nolan MCC, Executive & Top Teams Coach

"This special call was really great. Loved every aspect of it. Thank you for always bringing us the best of the world of coaching." ~ Tina Muheim ACC, Executive, Leadership & Career Coach

"The session exceeded my expectations.  This is the first time that I have heard a session that described listening at a more granular level, including what to look for as opportunities to ask questions.  Would love more sessions like this.  Even as a beginner, this information is so useful as I strive for excellency." ~ Pamela Taylor CPC, Retirement Coach

"I hung on every word that both Tony and Fran said.  I wanted more.  I love getting advice that I can grab a hold of.  Listening for key words was so helpful." ~ Paula Freeman PCC, Life Coach 

So enjoy this history making masterful deep dive times two!
