THE FACILITATIVE COACH The Ying and Yang of Facilitation

When you coach, you facilitate. Well, let me restate that, when you Meta-Coach, you Facilitate. I had to make that adjustment, as you well know, because there are many coach training programs that don’t know that the heart of Coaching in contradistinction to consulting, counseling, therapy, training, etc. is facilitation. But in Meta-Coaching we know the difference and we use it as part of our branding.

That’s why The Facilitation Model of Meta-Coaching is so important. Late to be developed, the Facilitation Model was actually the last of the 7 models of Meta-Coaching although it is the most fundamental and the model that explains the 7 core coaching skills as well as the additional two dozen advanced coaching skills.
