The International Association of Cognitive Behavioral Coaching is announcing our next workshop

Prescriptive Executive Coaching Fundamentals Training

Arthur Freeman, Ed.D. and Oana Gavita, Ph.D.
February 24 -26, 2012, Istanbul, Turkey

Executive coaching (EC) has become a practical, competency-based, and action oriented model for helping individuals at virtually every level of management to have greater success and a more positive impact on their work, those with whom they work, and on their personal lives. Most EC is done from the theoretical perspectives of the psychodynamic, Rogerian, Systemic or even Neurolinguistic Programming. Few if any books, programs, courses or papers have promulgated a cognitive behavioral coaching perspective. The present workshop has grown out of a confluence of work and ideas that merge the “action impact” nature of executive coaching with a theoretical and applied model that has grown out of cognitive behavioral theory and therapy (CBT) and been transformed into Cognitive behavioral Behavioral Coaching (CBC).

Program Content (Main Topics)

•Understanding the basic theory, philosophy, and conceptual framework of the Cognitive Behavioral model.
•Moving from CBT to Cognitive Behavioral Coaching (CBC)
•The model and ethics of Executive Coaching
•The Prescriptive Executive Coaching Model
•Assessment and the Prescriptive Profile
•Applications of the PEC model to executive coaching work
•The future of PEC

The attendees will receive certification from International Association of Cognitive Behavioral Coaching and 16.5 Continuing Coaching Education (CCE) credits from the International Coach Federation.
