The coming weekend holds a lot of promise. Although I'll be trapped in a local hotel for three days (not my idea of heaven), I'm looking forward to a great experience with a very caring and talented group of people taking the Process course led by the very experienced coach-trainers of CTI.
I don't know what the group demographics say about the coaching profession per se (in my last class, I was the sole male . . . see the photo below), but I suspect that it's no surprise that a proclivity for nurturing and coaching draw on the feminine part of the personality, regardless of demonstrated gender. While this is a stretch for me, it's a good one . . . and like many other tasks that don't come easily, it requires total concentration to stay in the moment.
While I've taken other classes in the curriculum, the Balance class that I shared with the group shown below was far and away the best. Let's hope this one's even better.
I did not want the week to end without commenting on the recent BoVox meetup at Cafe Paradiso across the river in Cambridge. It was great to meet members of our local blogging community, as diverse a group of individuals as one might expect in the Boston metro area. Artists, PR pros, consultants, writers, students . . . all with unique POV's which they were willing to share. I was particularly impressed by the efforts of the organizers to do background research on those attending, providing the opportunity for more meaningful introductions and easier conversation. I'm looking forward to the next one!
