A FREE live Q&A for coaches on establishing strong, meaningful coaching agreements — the competency more coaches get stuck on than almost any other.
Wednesday | September 9, 2026
2:00 PM Eastern / 11:00 AM Pacific
Live on Zoom, FREE to attend
Coaching agreements are where I see coaches struggle more than almost anywhere else in the model, even after competencies like Maintains Presence or Evokes Awareness start to click. I want this call to be a space where you can bring whatever’s tripping you up, whether that’s finding the right words, sensing when to move from exploring to focusing, or something else entirely.
No matter how much or how little experience you have coaching, the session agreement can be perplexing. ICF Core Competency 3, Establishes and Maintains Agreements, sounds simple until you’re facing it in a live session. It’s entirely possible to understand it conceptually and still feel unsure in the moment: how long to let a client explore before narrowing the focus, what to actually ask so the topic and outcome are clear, or how to make an agreement feel like a real conversation instead of a checklist.
This won’t be a formal presentation. It’s a chance to bring whatever’s getting in your way with agreements and work through it out loud.
For example…
- How do you help a client get clear on what they’re really bringing to a session, without rushing that step?
- How do you know when you’ve explored enough to start narrowing the focus?
- How do you make an agreement feel natural instead of scripted?
Bring anything that’s unclear.
