Coaching Training with New Ventures West
Opening New Territory—Realizing Our Capacity for Sustained Development
The Enneagram Institute and New Ventures West are delighted to present our collaborative, in-person training, which was presented at The Barn in New York in June 2010 and is now being offered on the West Coast for the first time.
This hands-on, in-depth program is a creative synthesis of our two approaches that is aimed at breaking through the most challenging aspects of coaching as well as sustaining our personal development. This Training goes far beyond providing tips about each Enneagram type; instead, Don, Russ, and James Flaherty will be illuminating points of potential breakdown and breakthrough in both the client and the coach.
Building from a foundation in presence, mindfulness, and accurate self-observation, we will explore the fundamental hidden obstacles in both coach and client that tend to produce the “make-or-break” moments in the coaching process. In these critical moments, the coaching either opens up to new understandings and actions, or produces our characteristic defenses and avoidances. We will learn about our own automatic patterns that skew our own coaching away from our most powerful engagement with clients, as well as how to work with the various reactions and habitual responses of our clients. In short, the intention of this course is to help our clients and ourselves move to higher levels of development and consequently greater competence, insightfulness, and maturity.
This event will be experiential, with extensive group work, dyadic inquiries, demonstrations of technique, and hands-on coaching as well as a presentation of new topics and materials for both coaches and Enneagram teachers. The program includes periods for group discussion, questions and answers, and debriefing of our own processes. The teaching will take in and build on the comments and questions of participants.
The course will be led by James Flaherty and Russ Hudson, who will bring their many years of coaching and teaching experience to this event. We will have a robust group of students but will limit the size of the group to allow for intimacy and individual attention.

Prerequisite
We strongly recommend that all participants read The Wisdom of the Enneagram (Don Riso and Russ Hudson) and Coaching: Evoking Excellence in Others (James Flaherty) as minimum preparation before attending the training.
We also recommend that attendees have previous training with either The Enneagram Institute (Part One Training) or New Ventures West (Coaching to Excellence or equivalent). If you have not taken either of these programs but have had significant previous coach or Enneagram training with another organization, you are still welcome to attend. However, we will assume that participants are familiar with the methodologies of The Enneagram Institute and New Ventures West, and we will not take time to review these methodologies or to reconcile them with other approaches.
