Registration Open for Leader Breakthru 2+2 Coaching Skills and Certification

At Leader Breakthru, we have one focus: Coaching and resourcing the development of risk-taking leaders like yourself – leaders who are hungry to make their Kingdom contribution, and who are committed to finishing well.

If you are responsible for leaders and their development, then Coach Certificate Training is for you.

Leader Breakthru's 2+2 / Coaching Skills & Coach Certificate Training combines a Two-Day Coaching Skills Training event with a Two-Day advanced coaching for Certification.

It provides a solid framework and coaching skills, along with a focus on using these skills to better support and holistically develop leaders.

Take your coaching to a new level. Learn a new way to structure your coaching conversation that gets to the heart of God’s shaping work in the lives of those you coach.

Coaching can make the greatest impact when we move beyond simple problem-solving and focus on the personal development of those we coach.

The IDEA Coaching Pathway helps you to:

  • IDENTIFY with the person and clarify their core desire
  • DISCOVER the backstory and surface the challenges
  • EVALUATE how God is at work and pinpoint the root issue
  • ACT on the insight by developing strategic actions steps

What makes IDEA different?

IDEA seeks to coach the person, not just the problem they face – seeking to better integrate the Spirit’s work into the coaching process. IDEA also provides resources to help spot common issues of leader development, and offers ways to replicate coaching as a core skill for church leaders.

Coaching has become an essential skill and paradigm for leaders in the church. Become a better leader by becoming a better coach!

Two-Day Coaching Skills Training     August 28-29
Tuesday - Wednesday, 8:30 am - 4:30 pm
(Facilitated by the Mission Ohio Team)

The Two-Day Coaching Skills Training offers training in four core skills using the IDEA Coaching Pathway.

  • Move past trying to solve people’s problems, to helping others discover the answers God was already at work providing
  • See people take more ownership and responsibility for their steps forward, and move away from being dependent on the coach
  • Become more effective in one-on-one conversations, whether they are coaching appointments or not
  • See more people equipped to take action, and live out plans and goals they own
  • Gain mastery of a simple, coaching pathway that can be easily replicated

This training is not about acquiring skills. It’s experiential.

You will learn the skills of coaching by coaching. You will experience the value of coaching as you receive coaching during the event. The training will not only enhance your skills, these two days will change you.

After this two-day event, participants will be better able to:

  • Listen actively so others feel understood
  • Move alongside and help surface the true needs and desires for the coaching
  • Expand awareness through asking questions that initiate a change of thinking
  • Identify the core, jugular issue that holds an individual back
  • Generate feedback while not giving away ownership
  • Design SMART action steps that will actually be accomplished.
  • Empower the person, not just solve the problem
  • Follow-up to increase learning and accountability

Learn how to integrate coaching skills into a variety of ministry contexts.
Learn how to better follow the Holy Spirit's lead in your coaching. 
Learn how to introduce coaching to those you lead. 
Take your coaching to the next level.

Leader Breakthru’s Two-Day Coaching Skills Training introduces you to the four core coaching skills (listening, expanding, focusing and empowering) and uses them to enhance a leader’s coaching abilities. You will also be trained on how to coach and conduct a breakthrough coaching conversation using the IDEA Coaching Pathway. The eight-session, experiential training provides a foundational understanding of coaching and is a pre-requisite for the Coaching Certificate Training.

When coaching meets leader development,
breakthrough occurs!

Due to the gracious Cooperative Program giving of Mission Ohio churches and our partnership with Leader Breakthru, this Leader Breakthru training is provided at a 70% discount for SCBO church leaders.

Two-Day Coaching Certification     August 30-31
Thursday - Friday, 8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Take your leadership to a new level as you coach and develop those you lead.

The Leader Breakthru coaching philosophy and model integrates coaching skills and leadership development and is geared to help you coach the person, instead of just the problem. The coaching issues often lead the conversation back to the person.

Leader Breakthru’s Coaching Skills & Certificate program is an experiential training series for those who want to develop a coaching practice and/or better incorporate coaching skills into their ministry. Participants will increase their understanding and proficiency in the ICF (International Coaching Federation) Core Competencies, develop a framework for using coaching skills to develop leaders, and gain practical experience in coaching and being coached.
