About This Course

PLC501 Theories of Coaching details the core theories of coaching. These theories will be evaluated with reference to empirical research and conceptual analysis. An integrated goal-focused coaching draws on a broad band of behavioural sciences. Within this framework, primary attention will be paid to cognitive-behavioural and solution-focused theories of behaviour change and self-regulation, and their application to coaching clients. Each weekly seminar has a theoretical and an experiential learning component. The latter requires students to evaluate each week's topic in their own personal life experiences, and to participate in group discussion and coaching practice.
