Coaching as a Way of Leading : 3-Day Intensive
Combining two of Growth Coaching International’s most impactful courses – Introduction to Leadership Coaching and Managing Challenging Conversations - this intensive 3-day professional learning experience is an ideal way to accelerate and enhance your conversational skills and awareness as a leader.
Over three transformative days hosted at Bangkok Patana School, you will explore the GROWTH Framework, the key coaching skills, and a coaching way of being, and apply these in a range of real-world conversational contexts.
Managing Challenging Conversations : A Coaching Approach to Maintaining High Expectations and Constructive Relationships
In this special pre-festival workshop, Growth Coaching International Executive Director and EdFest China 2025 presenter Chris Munro will draw on his three decades of experience as an educator, leader and coach to tackle a perennial ‘hot topic’ – how to initiate and manage challenging conversations.
Do you want to:
✅ Be more intentional in how you initiate and manage conversations?
✅ Feel calm and confident in managing challenging conversations?
✅ Lead awareness-raising conversations that support greater responsibility and action?
✅ Become more attentive and attuned to others?
✅ Have the conversations that need to be had? (rather than putting them off)
If you answered ‘yes’ to any or all of these, then this workshop is for you.
The Impact Cycle in Action
Real coaches, real teachers and real classrooms = real coaching.
This is the only coaching course where you can experience the reality of coaching in a real school environment.
This practical course is designed for leaders, teachers, and instructional coaches who want to explore The Impact Cycle and see it in action over the course of three days.
Each day will incorporate a variety of classroom visits, coaching demonstrations, coaching practice, strategies to implement coaching and ‘Ask Me Anything’ sessions with current instructional coaches and leaders.
