Foundations Programme: Transformational Learning for Advanced Coaches 

Advance your skills as an experienced coach.  Leap forward in your coaching mastery through Newfield’s multidisciplinary approach, including our unique synthesis of pioneering concepts in systems development, emotional intelligence, leadership science, consciousness studies, somatics, linguistics, and integral living. 

One of the most valued elements of our advanced training is the opportunity to interact with advanced coach colleagues and to become part of Newfield’s robust, international community.  You also receive ICF CCEUs for Newfield's advanced coach training, including this programme and Newfield Teleclasses & Webinars.

This programme is not about giving you coaching tips or techniques.  It is not basic, but rather provides you with a set of foundational principles and distinctions that will completely shift your understanding of learning, what it means to be human at this time on the planet, and of coaching itself.

You'll learn a transformational approach to coaching based on Newfield’s decades of research and invention of the practice of Ontological Coaching®.  As an advanced coach, you will learn how to work with your clients on emotional, physical, cognitive, and spiritual levels and support them in profound shifts in their personal and professional lives.

Newfield offers a rich and powerful learning experience to advanced coaches—that goes well beyond theory—in an environment of fun, care, and respect.  You will also become part of our global community of graduates where you meet colleagues, engage in meaningful conversations around cutting-edge topics, and enjoy great networking opportunities.

In this rigorous programme, you will explore with coaching colleagues the boundaries of human knowing, learning, and action.   Specific outcomes include: 

• You will be a better coach—able to go deeper with your clients in helping them achieve sustainable new results.
• You will leave with greater knowledge but also greater wisdom with which you can make a difference in the marketplace.
• You will be given a solid body of knowledge and practices, based on our understanding of the generative power of language, emotions, and body.
• You will experience how the body is our conduit for learning and lasting change and how to break immobilising patterns.
• You will discover how moods and emotions impact our ability to take action and how to work with your clients to shift their emotional habits and constraints.

Programme Structure

Two, in-person conferences are led by an international team of Newfield’s experienced, skilled facilitators and Newfield’s most senior, certified, ontological coaches.
