KEEPING COMPETENCY

Because we use an Assist Team in conducting ACMC Coaching Mastery, one of the requests we have is that they have reached competency in the core coaching skills at the 2.5 level. And most have. Some may not have, and that’s okay because it is not an absolute requirement for being on the Assist Team. It is what we desire for the team.

Yet when the members of the team come together for the Pre-ACMC Training which is an internship in group and team coaching as well as training in giving feedback and then benchmarking, only 5 percent of them are able to demonstrate that full competency on the first day of our practice. Strange! Yet some of them have demonstrated the 2.5 level two and three or even more times in the past. Yet on the first days of the training they now get 2.0 scores on listening and supporting and sometimes lower. So what gives? What explains this?
