The Emergent Coach Training® Program
An Advanced ICF-Accredited Coach Training Program
The Emergent Coach Training® program integrates ICF coaching competencies with cutting-edge cognitive science, systems thinking, Focusing, mindfulness, somatics, multiplicity, depth psychology and human development theory into a powerfully innovative, whole-person coaching methodology.


Cognitive science estimates that more than 95% of thought functions outside of the conscious workspace, yet it also shapes and structures all conscious thinking. Most conventional coaching methods only interact with that thin sliver of 5% (or less!) of top-level conscious process, leaving the remaining 95% largely untouched. And with 5% working against 95%, which do you think ultimately wins out?
The Emergent Coach Training teaches science-backed ways to recruit this vast resource and help clients rapidly access greater creativity, negotiate complexity with ease, become more effective decision-makers and to support truly sustainable systemic change.
If you're committed to being at the cutting edge of science-based human development as a coach, our training is for you.
