THEMA UNSERES NÄCHSTEN EVENTS:
Developmental Coaching – An Introduction to Otto Laske's Approach

This presentation will introduce the pioneering work of Prof. Otto
Laske, co-founder of the Interdevelopmental Institute in Cambridge,
Massachusets, USA (see: http://www.interdevelopmentals.org). In brief,
Prof. Laske brings the evidence-based discipline of developmental
psychology - a school of thought started by Swiss psychologist Jean
Piaget - to the profession of coaching.

In a recent article, Otto Laske describes the relationship between
behavioral and developmental coaching as follows:

≥Coaches help bring about two kinds of changes in clients: behavioral
change, which is "in-time" and thus linear; and developmental change,
which is "across time" and thus discontinuous. Behavioral change is
change in how clients function in their job and life, while
developmental change has to do with the clients' fundamental frame of
reference. A person's frame of reference changes developmentally, and
thus discontinuously: He/she goes to another "stage," rather than
moving along horizontally. Without a developmental shift, behavioral
changes do not last.„
