We’re super excited to announce that the Grid approach has been selected for the 4th Systemic Coaching Conference at Columbia University in New York. The conference theme is Advancing Frontiers in Coaching and Grid is certainly doing that!
The session Dr Magdalena Bak-Maier will present at this meeting will introduce this creative and systemic approach to coaching work-life management, balance and leadership. Workplace burnout on the rise and coaches need methods and tools to support their clients to find success in career and relationships. The Grid is an invaluable tool that many coaches are using to help them in their work. We’re pleased that this can now happen outside the UK.
In a typical Make Time Count style, participants will be invited to explore this empirical model experientially. Delegates will creatively explore possible conflicts between different areas that adversely impact balance, productivity, and burnout. All will be invited to consider how lack of healthy balance impacts the larger societal family. In this context, coaches are well-positioned as change agents who can creatively explore this perspective with leaders. Grid gives coaches a practical and easy framework, tool, and method to help their clients improve how they show up and what they achieve.
Columbia University Coaching Conference Session Objectives
By the end of Magdalena’s session at the Columbia University coaching conference, participants will be able to:
- Explain the Grid framework to their clients and bring to light the hidden forces that often impact productivity and wellbeing and lead to burnout.
- Use the Grid framework to explore the impact of specific choices, conflicts, and imbalances on the person and the various systems they belong to.
- Expand their tool kit with an approach that lends itself to embodied ways of working.
