A few years ago when I decided to become a coach I joined my local professional coaches association. The NW Coaches Association is a local chapter of the ICF, or International Coach Federation. Within just a few months I had joined a group to develop projects and programs and now I serve on the Board of the organization to bring speakers and presenters to the group.

This year I decided to ramp up our services and with the help of the NWCA Leadership Team I developed a project called Meet the Masters in which speakers from around the world will come together for an over-the-phone virtual meeting between each master and the members of the NWCA. It’s quite a wonderful project and the first meeting is tomorrow at 11 Am Pacific.

The coaching master I asked to join us is Steve Mitten, a former President of the ICF. This Vancouver BC coach has his finger on the pulse of coaching is the pulse of coaching having worked with major international organizations, dynamic individuals, and led the world’s movement of coaching. Steve has willingly and enthusiatically agreed to support our local chapter and I’m grateful.

I’m excited and nervous about this event. It’s a great opportunity to share with my peers, continue to grow as a coach, and build my confidence in leadership skills. I promise to let you know how it goes!

Homework:

I decided to continue to grow and change a path that I began a few years ago. What path have you started on? Have you stalled out? Or, are you going to fast and missing the views? Do you want to change your pace on that path? Do you want a different path? Or how about just simply enjoying the moment in time and space where you are right now? Journal on that and let me know where you are.

Truly Yours,

Joseph Lyons
