Power and its impact on ethics in Coaching
| Title: Power and its impact on ethics in Coaching Presenter: Paul Stokes Format: A mixture of powerpoint presentation, use of interactive tools via mentimeter and discussion. Abstract: This session will focus on the impact that power relations have on coaching relationships as seen through a coaching ethics perspective. Participants will be offered a number of perspectives on power and invited to apply them to considerations of ethical dilemmas and positions within coaching. This will be done by using interactive tools e.g. polls, Word Clouds, rankings so as to maximise enjoyment and engagement in the session. In particular, a reflexive engagement with power dynamics within coaching ethics will be encouraged and practical take-aways prioritised for participants in the onward coaching practice. |
