Coaching in a virtual space looks and feels much different than when we are physically seated shoulder to shoulder.

Examine how the principles of great listening (i.e., focusing in a visible way, sorting and compartmentalizing needs and wants, recognizing the feeling as well as the content, and balancing inquiry, advocacy, and judgment) manifest in virtual spaces. Explore the five primary types of powerful conversations. Practice facilitating conversations that actualize strategy.
