BEFRIENDING AMBIGUITY: Ethical Decision-Making in Coaching and Supervision Practice


This workshop is designed for both coaches and coaching supervisors.


It will offer participants the opportunity to reflect on their decision-making in the face of ethical moments and dilemmas that arise in coaching.


We will explore what resources are available to support ICF members and those providing coaching supervision to ICF Professionals.


We will experiment with how coaching supervisors can use decision-making frameworks to assist coaches to not slide into ethical fading when having to respond to concerns or complaints.


The focus will be on how to structure and manage one's coaching practice so that we are ethically aligned, confident and prepared to manage ethical moments, rather than to hold a focus on trying to avoid ethical dilemmas.


Some scenarios will be offered to connect the abstract map of the Code of Ethics to the grounded territory of everyday coaching encounters. The workshop will include activities and opportunities to work in break out rooms.
