ILI Coaching Approach - The Principle of Presence.

The ILI emphasises the importance of "being present" in all  Business coaching engagements. Allowing your "Presence" to be in the coach's chair rather than your Mind is the essential difference between excellent coaching and poor coaching. This is easier said than done as we spend most of our daily lives living from our minds. Not alone are our students taught how to engage with their "presence" during the course to help them to be competent at coaching, they also learn how to bring their "presence" into their everyday lives thus hugely enhancing their life experience.

A coach can be taught all the usual skills of coaching on any coaching course, but without "presence" the skills cannot be utilised effectively. Being present is both the greatest skill and the greatest gift of all, not just for coaches, but for everyone, and unfortunately very few people are aware of it or its power. The world's foremost spiritual leaders and personal development gurus write about it, talk about it and give lectures on it. We, in the ILI, teach it on our courses. If you want to experience the most powerful coaching that exists and to use it as a coach or/and in your personal and business lives, then this ILI course is a must for you.
