How Art of Coaching can help you:
If you are in a situation where you feel extraordinarily frustrated at work, maybe there’s power dynamics or agendas getting in the way of the stuff you’re trying to accomplish.
Or maybe you’ve just lost your spark because it seems like the organization doesn’t want to change or is sterile.
Or maybe you’re just looking for more feedback as a leader and you feel like you’re not growing as much as you would like to.
If any of this sounds familiar, then make sure to check out our Live Events for 2023. We offer a wide variety of workshops that are all dedicated to helping people with these real-life situations.
Real Life happens in the gray area, there’s no getting around that. And real leadership often requires a tremendous amount of improvisation or being able to think on the spot. This is exactly why tactical improv is a huge part of our clinics at art of coaching.
If you want to learn, you have to get hands on, you have to be able to explore the full range of your decision-making, your communication skills, your behaviors under pressure, and your ability to think laterally.
So don’t wait – find the right workshop for your needs HERE.
