Do you wonder if you should know more psychology to be an excellent coach? Are you looking for new practical tools? Do you want to broaden and challenge your thinking? Or are you just hungry for fresh ideas...
Top speakers, serious learning, great networking and great fun – welcome to the leading Psychology for Coaches course!
This practical and inspiring course gives you a “map of the territory” of the psychology relevant to coaching. It takes you in turn through each of the core domains of psychology, and introduces you to leading edge thinking that is already transforming coaching and the coaching-based management style.
The course fee includes all materials and refreshments each day.
For those logging Continuing Professional Development time, the full course represents 20 hours of structured learning and is fully accredited by Meyler Campbell and The Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA).
Designed to stimulate discussion and real learning.
University-style lectures, plus corporate-type small group work to deepen learning.
Practical case studies, research evidence and the real world experience of the tutors will be used to demonstrate the psychological principles that underpin successful coaching.
Course participants will also be invited to share their own experiences and current coaching issues.
The course runs in two formats: as a 2 + 1 day block course, and in modular format of one lecture a month over ten months. The block course consists of two intensive days of lectures, plus a third case study day with the focus on discussion and applying the learning. In the modular course each lecture stands alone, and participants are welcome to attend as many or as few as they wish.

By training a research psychologist, Henry is a member of the Meyler Campbell Faculty, and also runs the consultancy Kingston Jones. He worked for almost a decade with a prestigious global law firm as the Head of Learning and Development and Head of Human Resources within Europe, and has a PhD in improving decision-making processes. But he wears his learning lightly, and is a warm, funny, and highly engaging speaker with a strong practical bent, and a real understanding of the challenges facing senior people in organisations. To keep his thinking fresh he also continues to work in academia as a Visiting Lecturer in Psychology at Europe’s largest teaching University.
