We are happy to announce the kick-off of the Northeast Coaching Roundtable on January 27th from 10:00am - 11:30am.  IOC is convening roundtables in Europe, Asia Pacific and is launching groups in Canada and South America in 2022. In the US, we have roundtables in mid-Atlantic and western regions; we are thrilled to join this fantastic group of coaching thought leaders as we establish the Northeast Roundtable.

For this inaugural roundtable we will discuss what you as a member would like to experience or learn as part of the roundtable. We will also have an opportunity to reflect and share with each other around a couple of key questions: 1.  What are some of the most difficult challenges you are facing in your current coaching practices? 2. What do you believe will be the leading themes for coaching in 2022?

To help us shape this conversation, and provide some ideas for discussion, we suggest you review the keynote talks from the IOC Coaching and Leadership Conference. This will include talks from coaching science luminaries such as Richard Ryan, Amy Edmondson, and Robert Biswas-Diener, among our stellar presenters. The videos are available here for your review.

Allison Davis, based in Connecticut, will be our convener. Our Director of Global Development, Jeffrey Hull, PhD, BCC will also join to kick-off what will hopefully be an on-going series of deep dialogue and community-building among IOC Fellows and Affiliates in the Northeast.

Presenter:  Allison Davis (IOC Fellow)
