"Marion's program is not only one I would recommend to a new coach, as it offers every foundational element required to be a coach, but is one I would recommend to ANY coach that seeks mastery of the craft. I learned more about how to be a coach, from an application standpoint in the laser coaching program, than I learned in all the coaching classes I took at my coaching school. This program has given me a whole new approach to coaching along with the skills. I am very pleased to say that my coaching has improved, but what I am really excited about is the change in my confidence level. You have a gift. Thanks for finding it and sharing it with all of us." Melissa Quiter, NLP www.ProvocativeCommunications.com |
Do you still feel as though you are the only coach who is:
-
- lacking confidence?
- feeling as though you are not doing enough for your clients? - scrambling and winging it as you go?
- having a hard time getting to the bottom of things quickly?
- not providing the best possible value?
- talking in circles or lost in the details?
- finding it easy to fall into 'fixing and solving' mode?
- not delivering the value to your clients that would justify higher fees?
- Not able to say what you are thinking for fear of offending or losing your client?
- coaching without receiving constructive feedback?
Marion's Laser coaching class isn't just a class; it's her gift to the coaching world. She gives you her knowledge, wisdom, support and attention. Stephanie Jansse, MS, Life Coach |
As a result of this 12-week program, you will:
I think you were just about the most valuable class we had in the ICF conference because of your authenticity, directness and deep understanding of the coaching process. I feel so fortunate because Direct Communication is a competency about which I was getting conflicting messages and your teaching cleared up so much of that.

What is Laser Coaching and Why Bother?
--Laser means getting to the source or root quickly.
--Laser coaching is defined as a specialized coaching technique and approach that promotes quick alignment, a rapid sense of relief, and a way of quickly unblocking someone who may have felt stuck in their way of thinking for a long time. (Thomas Leonard, 2002. Laser coaching, Class #008.)
--It does not necessarily shorten the coaching time but it does make each coaching session more effective and efficient.
Stop wasting time figuring out where to go with the client, what to ask. Learn how to recognize the 'essence' and get the client moving forward easily and skillfully.
--The most common MISperception is that it means short, quick coaching sessions. Actually, that is a BY-PRODUCT of efficient and effective lasering -- not the goal.
Using laser coaching allows you to go deeper rather than broader, thereby staying more focused, maximizing the time, and creating long-lasting change.

"An expert knows the subject very well. A model teaches by showing instead of just telling." by Thomas Leonard
This describes Marion's style of mentoring and teaching the Laser Coaching program.
Why This Course is a Great Choice For You:
Every need and question is addressed so you will not be lost in a mass of people feeling frustrated.
In 12 intensive weeks, you will experience 16 content-rich skill lessons, 8 group mentor calls, 10 supervised practice calls, and an actual pro bono client so that you will be ready to take on clients when you finish, or if you have previous experience, make your sessions much more powerful, efficient, and effective.

Actually experience the learning through stories, metaphors, real-life client examples, and shared participation. Practice actual coaching relationships right from the start. You will be coaching from the first class on.
Get exactly what you need without wasting time and money. This program is exceptionally content rich and will provide in-depth material not found anywhere else such as strategies, defenses, and threats.
Classes meet on the telephone based on participant's availability. (Your scheduling requests are factored in.)
Learn coaching from a teaching approach with stop and start explanations at every opportunity. Understand what makes coaching effective and eliminate the guess-work.
Only 3 months to getting your cash flow going. (Some coaches feel confident enough to begin charging before completion of the course.)
I have been impressed so many times by how value packed your course is and you don't waste any time at all on fluff. Every moment spent in class or practice time has me learning, thinking, and absorbing such incredibly practical, real-life information. Only 7 weeks into the program and I wanted to share what a different experience it was working with my pro bono client using your approach. I kept thinking about the trick we learned to stay out of the story, and it really helped me see some things I know I would have missed if I had focused the way I did in the past. When I did the loop around at the end, she actually did have a shift in her thinking, and she came up with an action step all on her own! OMG, it does work! Not only is the information you offer absolutely wonderful, you are an incredibly talented instructor. You bridge the gap of presenting things in a logical, practical manner and still have the ability to 'paint the picture' so beautifully to show us what masterful coaching really looks, feels, and sounds like when all the practical, logical pieces are put together. Thank you, Marion, for sharing your heart, your knowledge and your unique way of teaching with us. Nikki Brown, Coach - coachnikkib.com |
(Note: The overall theme of the testimonials is about confidence and the advantages of small class size.)
Why did I design this program?:
This coaching program was initially created when I realized that I can't be the only coach who feels stuck in a coaching conversation, or insecure, or worried about the value I was delivering, rather than focusing on how the client was doing. And with my unique background as a high school teacher, blended with my decade of coaching experience, the course is designed to not only show you what coaching looks, sounds, and feels like, but to teach you HOW TO coach.
Once I discovered some very simple, powerful techniques and tools, and most importantly a particular, unique approach and "The" QUESTION to hold in mind* during every coaching conversation, coaching became effortless and the fear of not knowing where to go or the feeling that I wasn't delivering enough value disappeared. This course is purposely affordable and customized because it fits with my mission of raising the quality of coaching by helping as many coaches as possible. I love supporting new(er) coaches as they incorporate these advantages and shortcut the learning curve to become masterful and successful MUCH sooner. (Only 5 participants to a group for HIGHLY individualized attention.)
"THE" question is so powerful because it takes my attention away from interpreting. It provides me access to listening underneath instead of listening with the intent to solve or respond. My thought energetically holds the space for the other person to REALLY share. I actually used this at an office party, and I was able to remain quiet for a longer period and learn much MORE. This, in turn, allowed me to gain rapport with everyone I talked to. I truly believe each person in the conversation really knew I was listening!

How This Course is DIFFERENT From the Others
Outline of the 12-week program (Meets twice weekly for class plus once for practice.)
You will learn THE most important question to hold in your consciousness while coaching as well as:
Included: Clean Sweep Assessment; NeedLESS Program*
For the description, significance, and purpose...
It distinguishes itself from other programs because the lessons are taught through stories, metaphors, and real client examples, lots of VERY individualized attention, and emphasis is placed on producing permanent change. This is a substantial program with NO FLUFF of any kind and coaches truly learn to coach with confidence even before the program is completed. (Read Testimonials) This course continually pulls all of the learning together rather than the typical compartmentalized instruction. There are practice lessons built into the program that contain teaching while offering an opportunity for trying out coaching in a safe and supportive environment with immediate, relevant feedback.
For 8 weeks, you will be in an actual coaching relationship with someone not in your immediate group. This is in addition to practice time with your peers outside of the structured time.
Upon completion of the pro bono coaching relationship, you will receive one hour of feedback based on your coaching recording. The feedback conversation is always available (recorded).
Overview
Coaching is designed for those who want to improve or make changes in their lives - go from good to excellent, and to help people become their best. The course will help you gain greater clarity and understanding of the structures at play which prohibit a client's growth and effectiveness and then how to help clients attain their vision. It follows the Structural Alignment™ method of coaching.
*Structural Alignment™=Aligning truth, vision, and purpose
A little bit about Marion:
After taking many personal development workshops and classes, I found out that all of the transformations I was observing were happening through a process called coaching. When the facilitator said that he would teach us how to do what he was doing - I was the first one to sign up! I was SO curious to find out how he could figure things out about people as quickly and accurately as he did. He would ask a few questions, make some comments, and next thing I knew people were thinking entirely differently.
After coach training and eventually co-facilitating, I noticed some missing pieces and created a 4-week teleclass to fill in the gaps. That course is now integrated in the "Laser Coach Your Way to Sustainable Success" program. After a decade of coaching and as a Certified Master Coach (MCC) through the International Coach Federation (ICF), I am still as passionate and enthusiastic as when I started.

Clean Sweep Assessment: An easy-to-complete Assessment that looks at physical environments, well-being, relationships, and money. After taking the assessment, you may use it as a great starting tool with your clients to help pin-point aspects that need addressing and/or coaching.
NeedLESS Program: One of THE most powerful, life-altering programs. It examines underlying personal needs that usually manifest as negative behaviors when not met. The program is all about identifying personal needs and then finding ways to get them filled leading to a greater sense of fulfillment and happiness.
Both of these help with getting rid of distractions and finding out what holds you back from your greatness.
*All programs are best used with clients AFTER the coach has personally experienced them first-hand.
