Topic: Use the Internet to Build Your Business: What A Coach Has Got to Know

Presenter: Deborah Gallant, MBA

If you've been avoiding dealing with your Internet marketing because it seems too overwhelming and complex, this is the session for you.

Business coach and Internet expert Deborah Gallant lays out all the critical issues in plain English. Her lively, interactive presentation style engages you and gets you past your obstacles.

Integrating an Internet strategy into your overall marketing plans, using email, website, search engines, blog, ecommerce, ezines and much more. Come out with an action plan for your practice. This session is great for any coach who wants to improve how they are marketing on the Internet. New coaches who have not dealt with it yet and more experienced coaches who are dissatisfied with what they have done to date or who have avoided dealing with it.

Finally a unified perspective on how coaches need to approach the Internet. Bring your questions!

Deborah has been educating professional practitioners across the country about the Internet, including the Capital Coaches Conference in June, San Francisco and St. Louis Coaches and LA's Conscious Business Expo. She is the founder of Lifework Catalyst, a solo entrepreneur coaching business in Southern California. She is also the co-founder of Web Power Tools, a do-it-yourself website building system, which grew out of Deborah's own frustration with the options available for creating a great website without having any knowledge of HTML.

Topic: Coaching Skills Mastery - Applying the best of modern science, in service of more powerful coaching

Presenter: Steve Mitten B.ApSc, P.Eng, CPCC, MCC Life & Business Coach 2007 Canadian Coach of The Year

Much of coaching has evolved from the intuitive adaptation of past best practices from a wide range of disciplines. There is great value in such a heritage as modern coaching has demonstrated high levels of client satisfaction and return on investment. And, when you can integrate your best intuitive practices with a solid core of what science has demonstrated actually makes people learn and grow optimally, you have a much more powerful approach.

Paid Advertisement Internal Coaching Intensive: September 30 - October 5, 2007
External Coaching Intensive: November 11-16, 2007

Two top ranked schools at Columbia University have joined forces to offer a Coaching Certification Program and a Center for Coaching Excellence. This collaboration is a natural extension of a long and productive relationship between Columbia's Executive Education Division, Columbia Business School and The Center for Educational Outreach and Innovation, Teachers College.

Program Structure
This Certification Program is designed for those interested in developing the competencies needed to deliver coaching services in organizations, where the focus is on building high-performance cultures that leverage human talent and generate results. Recognizing that learning needs are different for external coaches and those coaches working inside of organizations, a choice of customized programs for internal and external coaches is offered. Upon completion of the external or internal coaching intensive, participants receive a Certificate of Completion and can apply for the Coaching Certification Program, which requires completion of the Practicum and the Advanced Coach Intensive.

Location: In-residence at the Tarrytown House, Tarrytown, New York
