Creativity and/in Coaching


Event Information

Coaches value the academic and scientific foundation of their profession and creativity may not be the skillset and the attributes that they consciously draw on in their practice.

I will explain the presence of creativity in our lives through from three perspectives; our innate human mechanisms such as the generation of our memories, perception, the creation our emotions and knowledge as well as our ability to exercise choice and how we re-wire our brain.

Secondly I will sketch the thoughts of Carl Rogers, Rollo May and Paul Ricoeur on the need of creativity.

Lastly I map theory and contemporary brain science on the coaching relationship and explain how a creative approach helps clients with ADHD particularly to broaden their self-conception, externalize executive functions, thus contributes significantly to boost their autonomy, self-efficacy and confidence.
