To Be Authenitc
I am pleased to announce the first cohort of Powerful Question coaches will begin on October 7, 2025. Dr. Michael Neel, a former prof at Vanderbilt University and a professional coach himself, helped me design the course and will be active in presenting it. It will consist of 5 zoom sessions and supervised demonstrations. Just two spots remain open at this time. Contact me at johnolesnavage@gmail.com if you want to consider joining.
