The Senior Practitioner Program
For experienced coaches, facilitators and consultants ready to work at greater depth
Many experienced practitioners reach a ceiling that has little to do with skill. You can sense a level of work beneath the surface of a session, one you reach sometimes and cannot yet reach reliably.
The Work
The program develops that capacity through vertical development and direct experience of working at the level of state and field. Your technique stays with you. What changes is the place you work from, so the same skills carry further with every client.
Beneath this sits your own inner work. The patterns that shape you as a person also shape what you can meet in a client, and what you steer away from without knowing it. We work with these within the cohort, so your own development becomes the ground your practice stands on.
The program draws on two of the eight vertical capabilities in the Arc of Leadership Consciousness. Self as Instrument is its foundation, as you learn to work through your own presence with precision. Field Awareness develops alongside it, attuning you to what is moving in a client and their system before it is spoken.
Structure
A cohort of eight to twelve over six to twelve months, meeting monthly, with the practice community that grows around it. At the outset each practitioner sets the development focus they will be held to, and we review it together at the close.
