What is professional coaching?
The International Federation of Coaches (ICF) defines coaching as partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential, which is particularly important in today’s uncertain and complex environment. Coaches honour the client as the expert in his or her life and work and believe every client is creative, resourceful and whole. Standing on this foundation, the coach’s responsibility is to:
- Discover, clarify, and align with what the client wants to achieve
- Encourage client self-discovery
- Elicit client-generated solutions and strategies
- Hold the client responsible and accountable
This process helps clients dramatically improve their outlook on work and life, while improving their leadership skills and unlocking their potential.
Conversational Intelligence® (C-IQ) – Creating a seismic shift in your business
Nine out of Ten Conversations Miss the Mark! 90% of the time the person we are speaking to misses our meaning or intent. (Research: Judith E Glaser) We talk past each other. We talk over each other. We trigger each other. We stop listening. Conversational Intelligence® keeps us connected with others and helps us to successfully navigate our inner and outer realities together. Listening to Connect and Build Trust ™
Conversations are your currency The quality of your conversations determines your success. Efficient conversations are essential to creating a culture of trust, enhancing innovation, and speeding up decision making. CI-Q teaches people to listen to connect, communicate clearly, and have greater impact in their personal and professional lives. Mind Sight – Opening the Third Eye / Ear ™

What is Conversational Intelligence®?
The methodology and its comprehensive tools offer unique insights into conversation’s potential to catalyse change and growth and relationships. It aligns individual, team, and organisational aspirations by teaching people to communicate using the most advanced parts of their brains. Building C-IQ sets us off on a mysterious path of lifelong exploration as we learn to activate the pleasure-inducing neurochemicals that help us successfully navigate life’s most important, and sometimes difficult and challenging conversations.
Conversational Intelligence® and Change
The tools of C-IQ show us to “reset” our neurochemistry, improve health and activate a heightened ability to Co-create with others. We also learn to Down-Regulate behaviours that activate Cortisol (fear hormone) and Up-Regulate behaviours that activate Oxytocin (bonding hormone), thereby moving ourselves and others into trusting, generative, and partnering states of mind. Communicating from a place of co-creation and partnering elevates healthy conversations and reduces fear and uncertainty in a world of rapid change. Neuroscience and Chemicals
How does Conversational Intelligence® work?
Conversations and relationships go hand in hand. Conversational Intelligence uses a transformational methodology that clarifies the conversational dynamics and patterns that are present in all conversations. Based on the newest research in neuroscience, Conversational Intelligence® methodologies can be used to elevate partnering, create healthy cultures, and develop human potential through a combination of coaching and neuroscience to permanently improve the quality of conversations and relationships.
