Coaching Chronicle by Gerard O’Donovan

In fact one of the most hectic times in the last year. I am currently at the residential training course at Eynsham Hall near Oxford .(http://www.eynshamhall.com/)  

We have fantastic men and women who have flown in from all over the world, Deborah from Canada Lavinia from Romania, Monica from the south of France,Lukasz from Warsaw in Poland to name just a small few.

As well as our intensive coaching residential program we also have a large exhibition happening at the Olympia in London being run by Emma and her team

while at the same time Vali and her team are running a five day exhibition in Bucharest.

The head office team are also preparing for our five day exhibition in Orlando in Florida which starts the day after tomorrow so I have to fly over early tomorrow morning with Gordon and Christopher and others to oversee that.

I have to say though that I am really looking forward to it. I am bringing my family with me so that we can also have some holiday time together and possibly go to Disney World etc.

Well, today in Weymouth it is wet and windy and dreary.Not quite like the subtropical paradise we are usually familiar with.

Today and yesterday the team in head office have been working with Iain Alexander,putting together a whole new interactive online mentoring system that we can use within our company to more effectively look after our coaching students worldwide.

The students will also find it far more effective and helpful. They will be able to login to their own university to style classroom.

And record every piece of work that they do there.

 I am also getting ready for my next trip to Romania on Tuesday ( one week today) I only got back from Romania and Poland last week!

It is almost becoming like my second home.

I will be running an introduction to culture and in Bucharest and then going to the city of Iash in Moldova,to run another introduction to coaching and event there.I haven’t been there before so I’m looking forward to it.

 We will also be running an introduction to event in Canada later this month which should be great fun.

This coming weekend we have a lot happening in London. Three events all over the same weekend

1) NLP practitioner programme ( the first three-day part) Friday Saturday and Sunday

2) introduction to coaching on Saturday

3) building your coaching business Day on Sunday

They are all happening at the Thistle Kensington Gardens Hotel on Bayswater Road

 Thinking of taking a day off tomorrow,if the weather is good. I might even go out on my motorbike.

 One of the things that we’re beginning to do quite a bit of now in Noble Manhattan Coaching is to appoint licensed distributors in different parts of the world.

So far we have distributors in Turkey, Poland, Romania and more recently Canada.

This is a business model that actually works incredibly well for all parties concerned

Us, the distributor and our student Coaches.

Well I think that’s enough for now.  Gerard

Working with Allan and Wendy scoping out a great strategy for helping ALL coaches in Canada. What great people to work with.

I am so looking forward to being instrumental in putting together a great supportive and caring home for all Coaches and Student Coaches in Canada over the next 2 to 3 months.

It will mean that I will have to travel there on quite a number of occasions. looking forward to that
