    Here is what people are saying about Power Coaching:

     

    Power Coaching has taken me to the next level as an Executive Coach. The concepts and skills I learned in the training are by far the best I have experienced.

    Patrick Lagutaris — PCL Leadership


     

    I have gone through so much growth and development over the past few months that it is hard to put into words how Power Coaching has impacted my success... What I have learned through the Power Coaching class has impacted many ways in which I work with my clients. Through the Power Coaching class I have also more finely tuned my area of expertise. When I came into the program, I was just starting out and struggling with defining myself, getting myself out there and getting hired. I now know who I am, am definitely out there and have a good close ratio on new clients. The confidence I have gained has also given me more latitude in partnering with others to meet needs for which I have no expertise and suggesting steps to a new client to "test me out" that I would not have proposed before. I think my latest client will end up investing more in me than the training costs.

    Judy A Newman — Consulting Partner , Grey Heron Consulting

     

    As an HR Professional, the JCris Power Coaching training has been invaluable. This has not only taught me a new way to interact with the various team members within my organization, but now I can coach managers and supervisors to do the same. As the saying goes - "it's not what you say, but how you say it" and in a
    management role - coaching to superior performance reigns supreme.

    The results-oriented method of this class combined with solid theory and practical experience has made it both a valuable learning experience and also a safe and sound way to "practice" Power Coaching with like-minded professionals so that I am able to be comfortable coaching my team. I would recommend this course to both HR professionals and experienced coaches alike!

    Erin Gray — Director Human Resources Villa Enterprises

     

    With Power Coach training you will learn how to best work with individuals to help them identify, strategize, and ultimately achieve their individual goals. Over a 24-week period, you will gain an in-depth understanding of McLellandís needs-based motivational model, along with Golemanís Emotional Intelligence findings as taught by world class instructors who will mentor you to get you through the program and get the most out of it. I highly recommend this course to both those who are new to coaching, and established coaches who are seeking to take their coaching skills and in turn their clients to a higher level in helping them to obtain sustainable results. Simply put, there is no better coach training program out there. I wish it did not have to come to an end.
