"I wish to acknowledge you, Marion, for being a superb coach with a stellar intuitive coaching style. In all four of yesterday's coaching sessions you immediately zoomed in on the client's real topic, which for me personally resulted in a shift of perspectives to my own topic.
Then you also showed great self-management skills when I, as a coach, let my own frustration over my client's resistance to being coached, and what I perceived as my own failure as a coach, wash over you. I want to share with you what a great learning experience yesterday's session was for me! So, I really was in the right place for an experience that provided me with great learning and growth, both as a person and as a coach. So, thank you again and where do I sign up for the next micro lab session?" Marie Tapper, Co-Active Coach and Published Researcher, SunWindWater Blog |
'Now, what do I say?' - This is one of the most common questions I hear newer coaches asking when they feel unsure in the coaching conversation. Join this group call and discover easy solutions so this and many other concerns no longer exist. Even if you have taken some coach training, this group will offer tremendous value towards your becoming more confident.
- The aim of the ongoing mentor coaching group is to develop both competence and confidence in your role as a coach. The Practicum will meet for 1 1/2 hours per week with a small group. You can join in at ANY time and stay for as little as 4 weeks or stay as long as you like.
- You will have an opportunity to enhance and practice your coaching skills, theory, and methodology by providing and receiving coaching with each other, as well as discuss situations regarding
current coaching clients whether or not it's a buddy coach, pro bono client, or paying client. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions related to coaching.
INCLUDED: Extensive feedback and teaching throughout. - Find out how to get out of your own way and REALLY listen in a purposeful and useful manner without getting stuck in the story and caught up in the details.
- Participate in an applied coaching experience to deepen your understanding of principles, develop coaching expertise, gain confidence, and feel supported in the development of a coaching practice.
- Learn how to handle difficult coaching situations and think critically about coaching situations. This facilitated small group experience uses participant's clients, case study discussion, and practice coaching with supervision as a basis for deepening the learning and increasing confidence.

Marion's Mentor Program is one of kind in its tangible and real value. Marion takes your coaching skill to a new and revolutionary level utilizing her natural inquisitiveness and her authenticity. Marion revolutionized my world and was the muse behind the Ready for Happiness Group and the mind shift that had to occur in me to believe owning and building my own business was possible. The longer I stay in this industry, the more I realize how honest and wise you are. Marion will give you the honest truth regardless of what it may cost her personally. She is above reproach in the integrity category, and I highly recommend taking any and all feedback she may have to offer. Kathy Brandon, - Ready for Happiness Group |

I highly recommend Marion Franklin who specializes in those seeking or renewing ICF certification as I recently needed to renew my PCC status. I found working with Marion to be cost effective and extremely valuable. I am honored and pleased to say that working with her in getting those hours met was an unexpected gift for me. What started out as a requirement ended up as a much appreciated skills enhancement refresher. Judy Epstein, RN, PCC - Life Enrichment Coach.com |

I just want to say that I am SO THRILLED to be able to re-join this program! I view this program you offer as the coaching version of what Toastmasters provides for speaking.... Practice and invaluable feedback. Marjorie Geiser, MBA, RD, NSCA-CPT, Business coach, author, speaker - MEG-Enterprises.com |

Marion, thank you for including me as a newcomer, for the opportunity to coach, and for your comments. I am still processing everything. I appreciate the gracious way you handled everything. You included everyone's comments, did not react, and you remained neutral about everything that was said. I liked your upbeat tone and the educational focus. My favorite part was the way you checked in with what people were thinking. It is very intriguing to observe the clarity this brought out. What a great group of coaches. We are all blessed! Jessie Hipolit - AttractTheLifeYouWant.com |
You will practice how to help clients:
- Discover hidden ideas that actually prevent them from reaching their goals, and in turn, prevents them from growth and effectiveness.
- Explore new ways of how to view client's situations so that they can
have a different experience.
- Penetrate some of the protective layers of defenses that
hide some of their greatness.
- Explore the realm of possibility and find their own truth so that they can achieve their dreams and aspirations.
I come away after each group call with a new technique, approach or an idea. The class is dynamite and is of tremendous value. L.B. I appreciate all your wisdom, guidance, concern, and patience. Your format is great in that we get training and learning through experience. You make everything look so easy too, and there is nothing like learning from a master. J.Q. Marion is a unique blend of coach/teacher and brings enormous value and experience to this call. An added value is the wonderful coaches she attracts to be part of this group. When I started I wanted to have a solid handle on the certified coach proficiencies. Not only did I come away with this solid foundation, I also gained tremendous confidence in my coaching skills. This would be a wonderful group at any price! Beth Lyons - KitchenTableCoaching.com Thanks to Marion's smart way of structuring each call to provide practice and supportive feedback, I've been able, in a relatively short time, to expand my range as a coach and to coach more confidently and intuitively. Marion keeps the focus on our coaching and her incisive comments have sharpened my coaching. S.W. Marion helped us all feel at ease and willing to share our ideas with her easy, graceful way of eliciting comments. I especially loved the 'sidebars' she convened, when she stopped the practice coaching briefly and asked for comments from the observers-but unlike in court, the 'client' heard all of the comments as well and could respond to those that resonated. Marion also wove in many coaching tips and strategies into the session. It was a pleasure to hear good coaching in action. Don Morris - EncouragementPlus.com |
