Coaching for social change 2022
An event all about coaching for social change in the north east hosted by Yes We Can with North East Coaching Collective.
We’ll highlight the unique power of coaching to support individuals volunteering and working for positive social change in our region.
The event will
share stories of how coaching has helped VCSE organisations and individuals
launch a new coaching for social change offer for small VCSE organisations (turnover £250K and under) and people working independently for social change in the north east to try out coaching
start a conversation about how we can grow and nurture a coaching culture in the VCSE in our region
We’ll combine short presentations with hosted roundtable discussions and plenty of opportunities to network. If, like us, you love coaching, and want to be part of making coaching more accessible, routine and embedded within out north east VCSE sector, then this is the event for you!
