We are counting down to September 28/29, looking toward our annual Coaching in Leadership & Healthcare conference which our IOC community counts on for a life-changing experience. The conference lives on throughout the year for IOC members as the “conference that never ends” with expanded discussion and rich resources on important coaching topics. This September Harvard Business School professor Ethan Bernstein presents the first HBS case on coaching, calling the audience to consider: did the coach deliver transformational change that lasts, or surface-only temporary change? Now, allow me to be your tour guide and serve up some of our favorite IOC resources on transformational change, a topic that resonates across the coaching spectrum from health and wellness coaches to executive coaches, life coaches, and beyond. These and more are available in our brand new digital masterclass on transformational change, as well as in our Slideshare: A Visual Tour of Transformational Change . Now back to your summer fun, cold drink in hand. Enjoy a nice break from coaching transformational change.
Onward and upward, Coach Meg

The Coaching Two-Step: From Subject to Object to Transformation
FEATURED ARTICLES
Explore a new mindfulness technique, called the Declipse, to transform an agitation, belief, or perspective that seems to be in control, causing tension, and creating a blind spot or “eclipse.” This eclipse is what coaches call the growth edge, a technique that can be used alone or in coaching sessions.
Our January 2017 coaching report explores how coaches help people have a good look at the perspectives and beliefs that control them (and that they are subject to) and shift to a new objective perspective that frees them from the inner control.

Transformation aligns with a neurobiological model of mindfulness, developed by Harvard psychologist David Vago, called S-ART - self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-transcendence. Coaches help people develop self-awareness around a growth edge, begin to self-regulate their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and ultimately, transcend the growth edge.

Keith Krasny provides a framework for helping clients decrease their resistance and be more open to embracing creativity and developing novel solutions to existing challenges. Creativity is highly relevant to transformational change — which is a creative process.
At our 2016 conference, Harvard psychologist Deb Helsing presented a workshop on the Immunity to Change model developed by IOC award-winning Harvard thought leaders for coaching excellence, Bob Kegan and Lisa Laskow Lahey. This model enables transformational change and is valuable for any domain — health, well-being, leadership, and beyond.
