Power of 2 Coach
HORSE POWERED PEOPLE COACHING FOR EXECUTIVES, ENTREPRENEURS, LEADERS AND INDIVDUALS
I use horse principles around leadership, emotional intelligence, communication and relationship building to help executives, entrepreneurs and individuals become more effective and in touch with their authentic skills and abilities. The work is done live with horses, in classroom setting without horses and in individual sessions - with or without horses.
The work with horses is experiential and people report that they gain clarity and insight that is transferable and applicable in their lives. See an example in this Video clip from a demo at the 2011 ASTD conference in Orlando with 8000 participants from 81 countries.
Over the past few years an increasing number of corporations and individuals have experienced the benefits of horses in leadership development and personal growth. Horses mirror the energy of what people act and feel. In my work, I capitalize on this mirroring. It is very hard to ignore a 1000 pound living, breathing being in your immediate surrounding acting out the things that goes on inside of you. This is one reason why horses many times are more effective teachers than any human can be.
Some of the general benefits for people working with horses are:
A horse is a prey animal, constantly on call looking for danger in its environment. Therefore they are masters at reading their surrounding and interpreting intent in other beings. They are dependent on clear communication between herd members in order to flee danger. As they live in a hierarchical system, they assert their place by following the leaders and by letting individuals lesser in rung know their place. When humans enter the space of a horse, they are treated as members of the herd. The horse expects clear communication, congruent behavior, clear leadership and above all – a relationship that determines if the human is worthy of trust and therefore safe to be with.
In the following pages I invite you to read more about how you can include horses in your personal growth and leadership development training. I also work with equestrians who want to improve their relationship with their horse and become more centered at the same time. As an international level equestrian I also share my knowledge with competitors in horse sports and other sports.
Horses and humans have a long history together. Now it is time to let another aspect of horse shine – as teachers. Through the unique ability of horses to reflect our authentic self, we can learn and grow.
This workshop blends theory, practical exercises with the horses* with time to explore a new perspective of your self. Together with the horses you will:
Equine Facilitated Learning and Coaching builds on the principle that horses are sentient beings. Their life and way of existing can teach people important things, providing us with more balance and peace in our work and daily life. The workshop asks the horses to be our teachers as they often mirror emotions and energy from people around them. They tell us the truth – if we have the courage to listen.
*No riding. Ground exercises only.
