Dear friends
It seems that summer has arrived in Romania. Paris, however is still quite cold. Like me, many of you may be preparing your vacation, and projecting into the fall season. So, here are some indicators of what I have in mind for the fall, followed by a few personal thoughts and plans. And don't hesitate to share this with your network.
The Systemic Coaching Fundamentls : This is the market's benchmark training process to become a systemic coach, or you can use it to prepare for ICF coach certification, to become a really performing manager or leader, to radically transform how you are in your personal and professional life, etc. Whatever may be your goal, this course is transformational. Some testimonials: https://www.metasysteme-coaching.eu/english/testimonials-fundamentals/ And to register : https://www.metasysteme-coaching.eu/english/dates-locations-and-prices/1338/systemic-coaching-fundamentals-bucharest-romania/
The Supervision Marathon : The best way to fine-tune your systemic coaching skills with other recognized professional and systemic coaches, and to prepare yourself for the next level, or to pass your next ICF certification. The next one very soon in July, and then one in January 2014: https://www.metasysteme-coaching.eu/english/dates-locations-and-prices/1395/systemic-coaching-supervision-marathon/
The workshops : The Delegated Processes, the Breakthrough Processes, Risk Management (Cubes), Diagnosis. These four two-day workshops are designed for for systemic leaders, managers, or coaches who want to develop their personal, team or organizational coaching skills. The web page for more information on all these workshops is https://www.metasysteme-coaching.eu/english/dates-locations-and-prices/
In Romania : In June, I just led two introductory workshops on minimalism in systemic coaching in Iasi: city of the heart and I plan to come back there. Also coached a 3-day organizational coaching process for 30 key players of a Timisoara IT company (a local branch of an international group). After summer, I expect to lead more of these, both within client companies and for interested "open" groups in Romania.
International : Aften the Enesco music festival in September, I will to go to Sweden for a systemic coaching workshop / conference , and then to Mexico City early October for another conference and two workshops (https://individualandteamdiagnosis.wordpress.com/: (Please tell your Hispanic and Mexican friends about this). It seems I will have more long-distance, international trips this year, work with new cultures. This is always enriching to me, and usually stimulates my creativity.
On line : You may have already seen some of the short videos I have recorded on systemic coaching. They are listed on UTube : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLul7g3zvXpWKS8VoT42J_rZ95whppLMja And don't hesitate to link to my personal Facebook page (Alain Cardon MCC) and to the Métasystème Coaching page on which I often list other video resources : https://www.facebook.com/groups/metasysteme.coaching/?notif_t=group_r2j
Metasysteme Coaching Websites : Also, the aging Metasysteme websites soon will be re-designed and simplified this summer. Expect some major changes in our web "look". On the same websites, but a little later in the fall, you can also expect e-learning innovations, first for coaches and then for managers and leaders (teasing) !!!
To top it all... I have become a grandfather, to a New Yorker grandson. Pictured above, he seems to be pondering what this world is about. His birth has suddenly pushed me into a generation of "elders", into an even more international family. As with every unforseen nomination or sudden acquisition of a novel position, I first had a feeling of surprise and imposture : It seemed to me as if nothing had really changed, except in the eyes of others.
But let there be no doubt; Raphaël's arrival is a divine blessing, and I know he has come to this world for a very precise mission. That is already obvious ! Transitions can simultaneously be slow, seem uncertain, and feel definitely clear. Luckily, I have all summer, including a few weeks of vacation, to digest and align. One week in the Mediterranean : farniente in Ibiza. A week-long niece's wedding in Maine (US), with Raphaêl and extended family. Another week-long visit with friends in Montreal. And ample open time to think, write and, seize another batch of unforseen opportunities.
What's next : As usual, I am hoping you will stay in contact. Please do not hesitate to tell your network about my systemic coach-training program. I sense that I am usefully contibuting to the evolution of leadership, management and the coaching profession. In this developement, I know that your word-of-mouth is really precious. Also, please keep in touch and occasionally give me news of your own quests and challenges, or come to one of my open tables (communicated on Facebook) and share a coffee, beer and friendship on one of my Bucarest trips.
I wish you an excellent summer.
Amicalement
Alain
