Potent Coaching Workshop, 2-8-2007

Kaplan, Kaiser share tricks of the trade with consulting psychologists

Bob Kaplan and Rob Kaiser recently conducted a continuing education workshop at the annual Midwinter Conference of the Society for Consulting Psychologists (Division 13 of the American Psychological Association). Over 35 seasoned executive coaches attended the half-day workshop in Miami Beach.

The goal of the workshop was to share the “tricks of the trade” used by Kaplan DeVries Inc. in executive development. Participants learned firsthand how to leverage simple truths that often go underutilized in coaching. The workshop was warm and informal, as participants learned powerful insights and simple practices employed by Kaplan, who has conducted pioneering research and created unique tools and processes for helping leader grow since the early 1980s.

Potent Coaching
Fresh Leverage for Developing Versatile Leaders
Bob Kaplan and Rob Kaiser, Kaplan DeVries Inc.

Yes, there are new coaching practices under the sun. Developed by our firm, supported by our research, and road-tested for years, these tools and techniques are yours for the taking. We will show you a new way to assess executives that is rooted in a practical psychology of leadership and development. You will learn how to apply basic truths about leading and helping leaders, truths that are in plain view but often not noticed or acted upon. An interactive, hands-on session.

After attending the session, participants will…

  • Understand limitations with traditional assessment methods and the problem with the underlying assumption that “more is better."

  • Assess their clients in a new way that captures such ancient wisdom as “know thyself,” “nothing in excess,” and “the power of balance."

  • Get beneath their client’s excesses and imbalances by working on the underlying motivational drivers of their behavior with a practical, de-mystified psychology that executives find legitimate.
