The C-ME Method: Crafting Transformative Group Coaching Experiences From Day One

9th October 2024  | 55 minutes

 

Session Description

When creating a group coaching program, it's easy to get lost in logistics, but one essential element differentiates group coaching from a standard course. The key is ensuring that participants see value in the conversation and each other. The C-ME Method introduces a powerful framework that uses core values, constraints, and clarity to create a sense of belonging from day one. Learn how to design group coaching experiences that make authentic connections, shared accountability, and a more profound understanding of safety within the group.
 
This session will focus on: 
  • The Power of Core Values: Identifying a single core value among participants can create immediate connection and a shared purpose.
  • Strategic Constraints: Why defining who doesn't belong in the group is as important as who does, and how this fosters trust and cohesion.
  • Clear, Unified Goals: The importance of providing extreme clarity on the destination and outcomes of the coaching journey, aligning everyone with a shared purpose while honoring individual diversity.

 

Session Outcomes

➙ Identify a single core value among participants to create immediate connection and a shared purpose 

➙ Define who doesn't belong in the group to foster trust and cohesion

➙ Provide extreme clarity on the destination and outcomes of the coaching journey
