Creating Future Stories Together:
personal responsibility | professional viability | global sustainability
August 31, 1-2 September
Conference Streams
The ICF Australasia 2009 Conference in Adelaide is being designed around four streams to provide a flow for learning across the two days. We intend for each of these phases to have offerings for:
- new coaches
- intermediate coaches
- advanced coaches
- coaching leaders, educators etc.
Searching for Sustainable Lives
Central paradox: How do we honour the journey we have been on as professionals AND adapt to the urgent needs of a future that is upon us?
In the morning of the first day, the focus is on exploring the current global situation and examining our own stories about it in order to better understand what we may have to leave behind, personally and professionally, in order to rethink our roles. In doing so, what will engage us to step forward? The aim is to support each of us to notice where we are now, what are our calls to new actions, and what it might mean for our own personal and professional sustainability as part of this process.
Building More Sustainable Practices
Central Paradox: How do we courageously and creatively engage in the challenges of our time AND run a viable and sustainable practice?
In the afternoon of the first day, the focus is on exploring what it will take to run practices, internal projects and businesses that will be commercially, energetically, socially and ecologically sustainable. As part of this process, what would open up for us if we stepped fully into this time? What is being asked of us and what is important to focus on right now? In creating stronger ties between our life and our work, we can develop greater personal responsibility.
Developing More Sustainable Leadership
Central Paradox: How can we be client-centred and non-directive AND be advocates and leaders for a more sustainable future?
In the morning of the second day, the focus is on exploring the call to leadership, both for ourselves and for those we coach and teach. As part of this process, what is being asked of us now as professionals and leaders and what is ours to do for the greater good? What kind of leaders and leadership do we need now and how will coaching support this development? In creating stronger ties between our work and the needs of/for leadership, we attain a greater degree of professional viability.
Enabling More Sustainable Organisations and Communities
Central Paradox: How can we connect the deeply personal AND the profoundly global through our coaching in order to transform our institutions and systems?
In the afternoon of the second day, the focus is on exploring how to bring coaching to bear on larger scale systems and in greater partnership with other disciplines in order to address complex issues. As part of this process, how can we collaborate in new ways, where will we begin and how will we keep it going? In creating stronger ties between leadership and the needs of our social and natural environments, we attain a greater hope for global sustainability.
