Kingstown College is delighted to welcome Professor David

Megginson to Ireland this Autumn to give a Masterclass drawn

from his book Beyond Goals: Effective Strategies for Coaching &

Mentoring co-edited with David Clutterbuck and Susan David of

Harvard University.

Drawing on the conclusions of the distinguished range of

researchers compiled from Australia, the UK and the US,

Professor Megginson will be opening up for examination the

implications of these findings for our coaching practice.

WORKSHOP CONTENT: Are SMART goals a central part of coaching and

mentoring? What other sorts of goals are there? How might

they be incorporated into our practice?

What are the implications of this analysis for a focus on

performance?

What is the difference between European and American

coaches in their approach to goals? Why might these

differences exist and what might we do about them?

Is it possible to coach without goals? What might be the

effects of coaching without goals?

Beyond Goals advances standard goal-setting theory by bringing

together cutting-edge perspectives from leaders in coaching and

mentoring. From psychology to neuroscience, from chaos theory

to social network theory, the contributors offer diverse and

compelling insights into both the advantages and limitations of

goal pursuit. The result is a more nuanced understanding of goals,

with the possibility for practitioners to bring greater impact and

sophistication to their client engagements. The implications are

substantial for all those practising as coaches or managing

mentoring init iatives in organisations.

One day workshop (10am – 4pm) For more information call the

‘What a relief. Finally an

academically sound and

engrossing recognition that goals

in coaching are simultaneously

central and irrelevant.

Demonstrating li fe 's elegant non-

linearity, the authors ask us to

question current coaching lore and

to build up an up-to-date

understanding of the real nature

of goals in coaching and

mentoring. A mind-opening feast.'
