VIRTUAL ROUNDTABLE BREAKFAST

SELF COACHING FOR DISPUTE RESOLVERS

VIKRAM KAPOOR

This discussion will focus on the art of self-coaching for dispute resolvers.  Do you coach yourself?  Because some of the best leaders and coaches in the world coach themselves every day.  Come learn some of the latest research out there on how you can more effectively shift perspective, overcome fears, bounce back from setbacks, and set better goals by using a self-coaching approach based in humble self-inquiry and compassionate self-listening.  As we get better at coaching ourselves, our capacity to coach others naturally grows, and this gives us an important competitive advantage in the great work that we do.
