Leonard, Dave Buck, and other coach colleagues look forward to the dialogue with you.

In celebration of International Coaching Week, you are invited to a live TeleDiscussion on one of the most important coaching topics in the development of coaching.  


You will be engaging in a discussion about this primary question:
 
What is the emerging role of coaching in societies, worldwide?


Dear Today's Coach Subscriber:

If the ultimate role of....

 ...the government is to protect.

 ...the family is to nurture.

 ...education to expand.

 ...economic system is to afford exchange.

 ...culture is to provide a common bond.

 ...spirituality is to increase awareness.

 ...then what is the role of coaching, especially as it expands worldwide?


 Could the ultimate role of coaching be to...

 ...accelerate the pace of achievement?

 ...evolve the experience of life?

 ...individualize the common spirit?

 ...absence the common delays of reality? 

 ...integrate the notion of work and play?

 ...facilitate the resolution of global inequity?

...or something else?


I believe that both the process of coaching itself and the role of coaching in society are yet to be fully articulated.  Which is one of the reason that I and several of my coaching colleagues are hosting a series of TeleDiscussions (live, interactive discussions via conference calls using one of our 10 bridges) during International Coaching Week, February 3 through 9, 2002.

If you are a coach, or an interest in coaching, you are invited to call in.  Together, we'll be discussion that primary question:
"What is the emerging role of the coach in societies, worldwide?"

There are many possible answers to this question, and that's the idea.  One of the strengths of coaching is the diversity of who coaches are and how they both define and delivery coaching.   The purpose of this discussion is to expand our understanding of the role that coaches is currently playing, and will play, in societies worldwide.

Related to that, I was reading a quote by a tech guru type (I don't recall his or her name) who said something like "The next big challenge for technology is to find the solution to global inequity." 

I have this feeling that coaching is going to play a role in that as well.

My friend, Coach Steve Straus of Dallas, shared with me last Friday that "Coaching touches the human core, just to the left of the heart; it's that personal, it's that profound."

And anything that profound personally is likely to have a similar effect on society.

You are invited
If you find this topic of interest, I invite you to join me for a highly collaborate discussion on the expanding role of coaching in our worlds.  
 If you have an opinion, come to share it.
 If you have an observation, come to share it.
 If you have an idea, come to share it.
 If you are just curious, come to listen.  
...and then share what you discovered.
