Course description

Coaching has become an emerging area of interest in personal and professional circles, and a sought-after skillset in business settings. As coaching has grown in popularity, it is often confused with other forms of developmental activity such as formal supervision, consulting, mentoring, and even therapy. This course provides a foundational understanding of the distinct purpose, skills, and applications of coaching and the role it plays in business settings. Students learn how coaching has evolved as a recognized profession with specific ethics, competencies, and certification processes. We explore the academic research that supports coaching as a vehicle for change and growth, including insights from psychology, human performance studies, and neuroscience. While not a certification course, the content provides students with opportunities to learn core coaching tenants and frameworks and actively practice key coaching skills of self- and other-awareness, listening, inquiry, reframing, and exploring options. Other topics may include emerging areas in the coaching field such as team coaching, somatics, and trauma-informed approaches. This course is well suited for students who already do some coaching in their personal and/or work settings and would like a more fundamental understanding of what coaching is, how it works, and why. This course is also useful for students who are considering more formal training in the coaching field.
