About this Event

Your Coaching Practice: Taking Stock & Looking Ahead

As coaches, we spend so much time focused on supporting others that we don’t always pause to reflect on our own development and how our practice is evolving. It can be easy to simply accumulate coaching experience without really noticing what’s changed or how you’re developing.

A chance to pause and reflect

As we head towards the summer break, June's session offers you space to step back, take stock and reflect on your coaching practice over the past year.

Through meaningful conversations with fellow coaches, you’ll have the opportunity to consider what you’ve learned over the last 12 months, what’s shifted in your practice, and where you’d like to go next.

Pre-session reflection

To help you get the most from the evening, we’ll send everyone who books onto the session a short reflective handout in advance. The aim is simply to help you pause and gather your thoughts beforehand — there’s no formal preparation required.

What to expect

We’ll begin by briefly revisiting some of the themes from our April and May sessions — including the balance between sharing insight and giving advice (April), and Dr David Drake’s Five Maturities framework (May)— and use them as springboards for reflection and conversation about your own coaching practice.

We’ll then move into developmental trios, offering a confidential and supportive space to share reflections, learning and insights with fellow coaches, consolidate learning from the past year, and think intentionally about the year ahead.

Who is this session for?

Don’t worry if you haven’t attended either or both April and May’s sessions – you will still benefit from attending. Whether you join us regularly or if this is the first time, this session is designed to be a supportive and energising space to bring your reflections, learn from others, and take meaningful insights back into your coaching practice.

Our Venue:

Parking is free and there is a large car park.

We'll be meeting in the The Garden Room, (turn right through the main door, walk past the bar and the Garden Room is on your left).

Our meeting starts promptly at 7:30 and ends at 9:00pm with time to chat afterwards. Please aim to arrive a few minutes early to get settled in and buy a drink from the bar beforehand (if you wish).

What is Coaching Central?

We're a friendly and welcoming coaching group established in 2017 for coaches based in the Midlands (and beyond when we're online!). The group is run by two local coaches, Rachael McNidder and June Hogan.

All professionally trained coaches are welcome, regardless of level of experience (that includes trainee coaches). Come along to meet like-minded coaches, make useful connections and develop your coaching knowledge and skills.

Our aims are to inspire and support professional coaches, to encourage learning and growth, and to uphold ethics and standards within the coaching profession.
