Abstract
Who should attend this workshop
You wish you could clone your knowledge into other people.
You tried to clone, but now everyone just comes to you for answers. All the time.
You haven't thought about cloning your knowledge before now, but now the option is there, you need to know more.
Why you should come to this workshop
I don't have a knowledge cloning machine (this isn't the Matrix, that we know of), but I can teach you how to coach. Coaching helps others internalise new knowledge rather than just giving them an answer which they may or may not understand how to apply now or for other situations in the future. Using coaching, you can help people gain more than skills: they'll gain context and wisdom, passed on through you. This is a skill useful in work, in parenting, in communities and in school.
What you will learn
In this fully interactive, totally participative workshop, we'll cover:
* what coaching is (and isn't),
* when it's appropriate to be used (and when it's not!),
* some key skills (and some key pitfalls),
* how to coach others - through lots of practice
