LEADING & COACHING DIFFICULT SITUATIONS

Great Christ-Centered coaches must learn how to interact in difficult situations with all kinds of personalities. Control-freaks, narcissists, slackers, cynics, divas, drama queens… are all people with lives worthy of living, loving, and learning how to live better. In Matthew 10:16, Jesus tells his disciples to be as shrewd as the serpent, but gentle as the dove. This course teaches you how to handle dreaded situations with a straight-forward process that is as Jesus taught – gentle yet wise. Using a practical textbook authored by a professional in the technology industry, where personality issues routinely cause havoc in multi-million-dollar projects, this course reveals a core truth about people: most do not want to cause problems, but rather prefer to do better and want to experience greater results. Christ-Centered coaches help people realize their potential for change. This course helps people identify where change might be needed when dealing with others and how to navigate that change.
