• How she uses this approach to manage internal conflict
• Why knowing your Inside Team can help you as a Coach
• How to help your client Team work with their Inside Teams

More on Cynthia:

Cynthia is internationally known as a passionate pioneer in the world of coaching: one of the first to gain the designation of Master Certified Coach (MCC) by the International Coach Federation, one of the founding leaders for CRR Global (Centre For Right Relationship) and The Coaches Training Institute, and one of the founders of the ICF. Cynthia works with people from all walks of life: CEOs to chiropractors, singers to Silicon Valley pros, teams that produce documentaries to sales teams in the insurance industry. In 2004, after 10 years of growing coaches to the level of ‘competent,’ she started creating ongoing training for advanced coaches to support them in becoming coaching masters. The Inside Team courses, workshops, and retreats came out of that work. You can find everything you want to now about Cynthia here: https://teamdarst.com

Every year, we take a group of coaches on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. I believe that adventuring gets us out of our comfort zone, stimulates us in new ways and helps us connect with the world around us. These trips are designed to disrupt your current reality, challenge your assumptions and reconnect you to your wider purpose. This year we were in Norway on the Nautilus Voyage learning to sail and experimenting with team of teams. Join us in 2020 for our next adventures this April in Cuba and this coming July in Norway!
