What is coaching and what makes the narrative spin? We define coaching as the evolution of new meaning through dialogue and we consider every question as intervention. In this seminar we shed light on the foundations of narrative work in 1:1 settings and give an overview of the narrative landscape.

The stonepiles of the seminar:

• The campfire of the narrative pioneers (White, Epston, Tom, Winslade, …)

• Listen for more than one story (double listening)

• The road from problems to solutions (exceptions and sparkling moments)

• The basics of externalizing conversations

The seminar is highly interactive. Participants are expected to get involved, bring their own questions and cases to practice the approaches and tools. Seminar fee includes access to the course material and additional materials.

This seminar can be booked as optional session for the certified training program Narrative Organizational Development.
