How to be a Brilliant Coach
“If a good coach can make a measurable impact on performance, imagine what a Brilliant Coach can do!”
There’s no doubt about it, coaching works.
But the extent to which it works depends on the skill of the coach. Coaching is not the same as training. It’s not the same as mentoring. It’s not the same as giving advice.
So what is coaching?
“Coaching is a relationship between a coach and a client that enables the client to access the resources they need to succeed.”
If you’ve studied NLP, you’ve probably done some coaching. Since we teach NLP, we’ve done a LOT of coaching over the years. During 2012, a colleague and I started getting curious about what we were doing that was getting the results our clients were shouting about.
So we decided to do an NLP modelling project.
‘How to be a Brilliant Coach’ is the result of our work. By applying the NLP principles of modelling to discover exactly what’s going on when one of us coaches a client, we have created a model of the essential skills of a Brilliant Coach.
We also uncovered the essential MINDSET that goes with those skills. And I’m sure you won’t be surprised if I tell you I think the mindset piece is actually the most significant.
If you’re a coach…
This programme is for you to take your skills to the next level. In four days you get more development of your skill in working one-to-one than you would ever have believed possible. The combination of NLP models, extensive practice and high quality, precision feedback takes you way beyond your current awareness – that’s a promise.
But it’s not ONLY for coaches…
According to a CIPD Survey Report, coaching by LINE MANAGERS is among organisations’ most effective learning and talent development practices since 2008.
If you lead a team, your ability to coach each person individually, when they most need it, probably represents your greatest value to the organisation. What could be more useful than being able to maintain high levels of performance from everyone who reports to you. (And some who don’t!)
What could be more useful than the ability to increase performance when times are tough?
I can’t think of a single reason why you as a manager or leader WOULDN’T want to be a Brilliant Coach!

The venue
Environments are important, so we’re offering this programme at the lovely Woodland Grange conference centre and hotel set in 16 acres of beautiful gardens just outside Leamington Spa. It’s easily accessible by both road and rail but once you enter the gardens, you’ll get the sense of stepping into another world. A world where time goes at a gentler pace and you experience the mental space that’s often missing in your busy workday.
Dates for your diary
