Introducing The Coach’s Retreat^TM – is an intensive workshop designed to increase your reflective practice and enhance the effectiveness of your coaching.

What is Reflective Practice and Why is it Important?

There are many different ways to describe reflective practice, such as:

“a window through which the [coaching] practitioner can view and focus self within the context of his/her own lived experience in ways that enable her/him to confront, understand and work towards resolving the contradictions within his/her practice between what is desirable and actual practice” (Johns, 2000, p.34)

No matter which profession you work in, the ability to reflect on what you are doing is a key to learning and improving practice. Reflective practice helps build competence and confidence in your ability to respond to challenging coaching engagements.
