THE THREE C COACHING MODEL

The Three C Coaching Model represents the critical dimensions of great coaching: Character, Connection, and Conversation. Leaders need to develop in each of these dimensions in order to increase their personal coaching effectiveness. During the Leader As Coach one-day workshop, participants explore the model, take a deep dive into the Character Dimension, and experience values-based coaching.

Great coaches earn the right to coach through the quality of their character. They know themselves well, are confident in their roles as coaches, and are deeply committed to the success of the people they lead. During this workshop, participants examine the core elements that form their unique character. Using in-class coaching and feedback, participants have the opportunity to assess their unique values, motivations, talents, and intentions, and analyze the influence these factors have on their coaching impact.
