Testimonials

"This  course has been exceptional in delivery, value for money and course  content. I wanted to obtain a deeper authenticity in my coaching  delivery, and this course provided the tools and approach. My confidence  has been heightened. My God given gift of coaching has been  strengthened. Carole is very approachable. She has enthusiasm in her  delivery, God minded and willing to share her experience of growing in  Christ and ensuring her approach as well as her coachees (course  attendees) experience of Christ is deepened in their coaching practise. A  thoroughly enjoyable course, that also opens coach networking  opportunities.”

“This  is an excellent  course that far exceeded my expectations! It was  thorough and included a lot of coach practice. The other participants  were great and what I have learned is invaluable. The fundamentals of  secular coaching are included, however, the fact that it’s scripturally  rooted with Christ at the centre adds another   dimension. Carole is an  experienced and gifted teacher with a real heart for Christian coaching.  She is very supporting and approachable.”

“I  came to the Christian Coach Toolbox with a degree of scepticism,  wondering what the 'Christian' content would add to the practice of  coaching. Within the first session any doubts were dispelled as Carole  introduced us to the basic framework she uses to anchor the coaching  conversation on Christ and the scriptures which speak of him. I believe wholeheartedly in the power of the coaching process to enable  people to move on in their lives, and I use the techniques in my daily  work with the Probation Service. What the Toolbox adds is the dimension I  have always felt is missing from secular coaching, that is spiritual  insight grounded in scripture.Through  a combination of theory and practice sessions we were taken, as  participants, through the essential skills of establishing goals,  building rapport, asking  good questions, and listening. We practised  the skills on each other and learned how to make sure that Christ was  central to the process. Linking in with a 'coaching partner' is a key  feature of the Toolbox and ensures that there is a chance to practice  skills between the tutored sessions.

As  I come towards the end of the course all scepticism has long since  vanished, and there has been an enrichment of my secular coaching  practice. Carole has proved to be a knowledgeable tutor, committed to  Christ, with a wonderful blend of fun humanity and challenge. I have  found it very helpful to review my own attitude, motivations and sense  of accountability in the light of her tutoring. I  will be recommending  this course as a personal development tool, or a tool to use in  discipleship. I believe that anyone involved in leadership in a  Christian context would find these amongst the best-spent days of their  lives.”
