Coaching knows no borders—how about your practice? 🚀

On February 25th from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, ICF France (Occitanie and Bourgogne Franche-Comté branches) is partnering with ICF Italia to offer you a unique experiential journey: “Coaching in a Foreign Language, Ready to Dare!”.

Facilitated by Sylvie Filipski (PCC) and Stacey Marie Hiebert (ACC), this interactive workshop has already inspired coaches and other professionals from over 15 countries during ICW 2025.

Why join this adventure? Coaching in a language other than our own is an extraordinary opportunity to strengthen our Core Competencies. By simplifying our language, we leave more room for intuition, energy, and a deep presence.

✨ On the agenda:

• Understand the potential benefits and challenges of coaching in a foreign language for both coach and client.
• Explore how linguistic differences can be leveraged to enhance the coaching process.
• Reflect on your own beliefs and assumptions about language in coaching.
• Have the opportunity to gently step outside your comfort zone to test, learn, and explore new possibilities with us, all while having some fun!

This workshop is designed for coaches with an intermediate to advanced level of English (listening/understanding) who wish to transform their vulnerability into coaching power. If you’re already coaching internationally, that’s wonderful!  And please keep in mind that this unique space is created for those who haven’t yet dared. 

 

Highly recommended pre-work:

Listen to the dedicated episodes of the Language Explorers podcast to fuel your reflection!

Each episode ends with a thought-provoking question that may inspire you further! 🎧 Episode 1 Episode 2 Episode 3  Episode 4

 

To fully benefit from the experiential nature of the event and ensure safety for everybody to dare, active participation is strongly encouraged.

An event driven by the spirit of international collaboration, with a beautiful balance between French and Italian ICF members, welcoming Global members too!  Are you ready to dare?
