A direct application of self-determination theory is a leadership coaching model based on Intentional Change Theory, developed by Richard Boyatzis at the Weatherhead School of Management and laid out in the book, Helping People Change: Coaching with Compassion for Lifelong Learning and Growth, co-authored by Richard Boyatzis, Melvin Smith and Ellen Van Oosten. This session will harvest this conference’s learnings with an interactive audience experience. Together we will create a vision for the field of coaching, an ideal state that is anchored in strength, our collective passion, purpose, values and dreams. We will also describe our current state, and some steps forward to an ideal future.
