PowerPlays Coaching, LLC

Client Counseling Skills

Board Room Skills

This type of coaching addresses communication in small group settings (i.e. "across the conference table" communication.)  Private coaching will focus on both 'projected' communication -- what you the communicator are projecting with both your verbal and your non-verbal cues; and 'receptive skills' -- learning to decode what others may be thinking based upon their non-verbal responses.  We will address the important social dynamics both in group settings, such as board or partnership meeting, and in individual settings, such as a client interview.  These sessions utilize a team-instruction approach -- a facilitator will introduce concepts and offer critique, and a role-player will "perform" as the client, collegaue, or superior, offering feedback both through action and critique.

Coaching sessions can be individually tailored, and scenarios and/or presentation materials will be suggested by the client to maximize his/her upcoming professional goals.  If desired, PowerPlays can travel to you to maximize your time and minimize disruption to your work schedule.  A DVD copy of the individual sessions will be provided, so yo uwill be able to further the learning experience by observing your own performance.

"I liked the fact that you told me what was "working for" me, and gave suggestions for improvement.  The discussion and suggestions about body language really helped me."

 "The one-on-one feedback and the constructive and honest commentary on strengths and weaknesses were most useful."
