COACHING.UP actively expands its range of courses for the professional development of coaches through CCE (Continuing Coach Education), helping deepen knowledge and maintain relevance in the profession. Since coaches need to renew their certification level (ACC, PCC, or MCC) every three years, CCE-accredited courses become an essential tool for support.
At COACHING.UP, we always strive to foster the development of our students and help them gain new knowledge and skills.
The course “Metaphors and Transformative Pauses in Coaching” is accredited by CCE in ICF. Through this program, you will learn to use metaphors and pauses as powerful tools for deeper client reflection, aiding in new insights and realizations.
The Role of Metaphors in Coaching
Metaphors help to make sense of complex situations, uncover hidden aspects, and approach challenges from a fresh perspective. By using metaphors, a coach supports the client in exploring new paths and possibilities, enabling a connection between conscious and subconscious thinking.
Metaphors create an emotional bond between coach and client, fostering a trusting atmosphere and open discussion of challenging topics. They form a bridge for creative thinking, allowing the client to view situations from a different angle, which leads to a deeper understanding of themselves and their challenges.
The Power of Pauses in Coaching
A pause not only creates a space for silence but also gives the client time to process, reflect on what they’ve heard, or choose their next step. Pauses allow a client to delve deeply into their thoughts and uncover new resources to move forward.
In a coaching session, a pause becomes a moment of inner transformation, giving the client the chance for deep reflection and a fresh energy to make a conscious decision about their next steps.
The course is available as a recording, so you can learn at your own pace. Enhance your skills and maintain a high level of professionalism with COACHING.UP!
