FFT-Coaching 101

Coaching 101 is an introduction to the art and science of coaching, appropriate for those who have no prior familiarity with coaching.

The course is divided into three parts:

• Coaching Basics - things every coach needs to know in order to start coaching
• Coaching Process - one way of understanding how the coaching process can unfold
• Christian Leadership Coaching - this explains a particular kind of coaching built on the Marshall Goldsmith "Alliance for Strategic Leadership" (A4SL) model that is used by coach David VanDenburgh in coaching leaders of non-profits like churches and schools

Students should work through the Modules in order, and do the Assignments within the Modules in order.

Upon completion of the course, graduates should have sufficient understanding of coaching to:

• maximally benefit from coaching themselves (as clients being coached)
• begin coaching others who desire some help with achieving dreams
