Presence and Mastery in Use of Self: Being an Agent of Awareness and Choice June 18–20, 2015 in Istanbul Are you aware of your distinctive presence? Are you satisfied with the impact you have? Can you be bold when you need to be? Can you access both intimacy and agency when needed? Can you respond in the right moment, where possibility exists? A core belief of the Gestalt approach is that a self-aware and compelling presence is a critical practitioner success variable that goes beyond the scope of specific tools. A compelling presence is a competitive advantage for coaches, consultants, and leaders. Although defining presence is challenging because of its uniqueness across individuals, it is a decisive factor in attracting clients and inspiring others. This highly experiential 3-day workshop is designed to address key aspects of your presence and your intentional use of self in the service of effectiveness, creativity, and satisfaction. Assessing and developing one’s own presence requires the context of others. We learn about the impact of our presence only by learning what we evoke or provoke in others. Thus the creation of a safe environment, with a rigorous demand for courage and trust, is an essential component of the workshop. The workshop uses the power of groups as a vehicle for exploring presence and use of self across levels of system: individuals, dyads, the group itself, and the larger institutional context of the group. Group configurations provide the practice opportunities that are accompanied by varied and intense feedback regarding participants’ leadership styles and skills. Participants will work with their impact as a group leader and with follow-up development strategies to increase personal mastery of and satisfying use of self for effective leadership. Who Should Attend The workshop is open to coaches, consultants, trainers, HR specialists, leaders, and graduates of any coach training program that has introduced the applicant to the concept of “presence.” Come ready to: Increase your awareness and your capacity to act choicefully in the moment Strengthen your capacity to influence and inspire others with your presence Develop greater self-trust in your ability to skillfully intervene Learn practices that strengthen your interventions across system levels Dates June 18–20, 2015 Location BÜMED (Boğaziçi Üniversitesi Mezunlar Derneği), Istanbul, Turkey Fees Early Bird Discount Full Registration $1,400 USD + VAT by May 15, 2015 $1,600 USD + VAT For more information and to register, contact: Zeynep Evgin Eryilmaz (532) 684 11 88 email [email protected] / [email protected] WORKSHOP LEADER Dorothy E.
