Pamelia Robinson

6:30 to 8:30 p.m.

CCEs: 2.0 (1.0 core / 1.0 resource)

Panera Bread
400 Penn Center Blvd
Pittsburgh, PA 15235

This “Coaching Conversation” will be centered around the concepts of “fixed” and “growth” mindsets as introduced in the book “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success” by Carol Dweck and how they relate to the coach-client relationship.

The author points out that are many implications of a growth or fixed mindset. For example, perceptions about risk and effort come from our mindset. People with a growth mindset understand the value of challenging themselves and will want to put in the effort to learn and grow. People with a fixed mindset will often avoid the effort and feel that it doesn’t matter. There are also implications regarding the mindset of the coach and what they bring to the table. This session will offer participants the opportunity to explore the mindset concepts through lively discussion and for sharing coaching experiences when a mindset consideration has led to outcomes that were either successful or not so successful.

Participants will learn:

  1. The Differences between a fixed & growth mindset
  2. How to Recognize one’s mindset
  3. Strategies for effective coaching for each mindset type
  4. The power of “Not Yet”

Zoom Monthly Event

Wednesdays 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm

April 24, 2019
May 15, 2019
June 19, 2019

As coaches, we often work 1:1 with clients, but otherwise spend a lot of time alone, in our heads, noodling possibilities, challenges, or dreams, with no dedicated outlet to process, take action or have accountability.

The Coaching Lab is a space for coaches to come together to share our ideas in a safe, non-judgmental forum.
It’s a place to get feedback, input and support.  It’s a built in focus group for whatever is on your mind.

Sample topics:

  • Talk through branding or design
  • Get feedback on an article or post
  • Talk through a challenging client situation
  • Voice a fear or concern and receive peer coaching
  • Ask for recommendations on products, services or resources
  • Proof concepts for webinars, workshops or events

Process:

  1. This will be a standing monthly VIRTUAL meeting on the 3rd Wednesday of the month from 7- 8pm. (Some dates are not the 3rd Wednesday)
  2. Submit your topics to Lauren Travis Lambrecht at leadwithverve@gmail.comat least 5 days prior to the event, or post your interest in the meeting invite on Facebook ICF Pittsburgh Coaches page.
  3. Selected presenters will be notified 2-3 days prior to the session; Selection is based on volume and broad applicability
  4. Goal: 3 topics per meeting, 15 minutes each (including sharing idea and receiving feedback); time will also be allocated for introductions and reflection.
  5. All community members are invited to participate, but only current paid ICF Pittsburgh members may present their ideas to the lab
