Each session builds on the last\, giving ICF‑credentialed and credential‑tr ack coaches a clear developmental arc they can follow across the season.\n \nWe’re opening the series with a skill that meets the moment: a Core Co mpetency‑aligned capability you can use with a client this week. Because Core Competency CCEs are the hardest to find\, this event gives coaches —ACC\, PCC\, MCC\, and those on the path—an immediate\, high‑value o pportunity to strengthen their practice while supporting leaders who must adapt faster than the environments around them.\n\nThis is the starting po int for a season designed to help coaches cultivate resilience\, agility\, and sustained excellence in the people they serve.\nSession 1: Sustained Excellence through Adaptive Leaders: Principles for Everyday Coaching Prac tice\nThe steady state is gone. AI is compressing the clock on whole indus tries\, policy is shifting at every level\, and the ground moves under a d ecision before it is finished being made. The leaders our members coach ca n no longer settle into a stable place to lead from\, and the ones who get comfortable are the ones a faster competitor passes while they settle in. This session teaches a coaching skill built for exactly that pressure: he lping a leader stay alert to weak signals precisely when things are going well\, before success quietly narrows their attention. Grounded in high-re liability research and delivered as everyday coaching practice\, the hour centers on a live coaching demonstration and hands-on practice you can use with a client the same week. It opens a six-part series\, Sustained Excel lence through Adaptive Leaders.\n\nLearning objectives\n1. Evoke awareness by forming questions that surface weak signals at the edges of a client ’s operational environment\, before they become problems. (Core Competen cy: Evokes Awareness)\n2. Maintain presence and listen for a client’s in ternal signals\, the felt cues experience has trained them to explain away . (Core Competency: Maintains Presence\; Listens Actively)\n3. Help a clie nt convert a recent near-miss into transferable learning while it is still fresh. (Core Competency: Facilitates Client Growth)\n4. Apply a coaching mindset that treats client success as a prompt for deeper inquiry rather t han reduced scrutiny. (Core Competency: Embodies a Coaching Mindset)\n\nEa rn CCEUS: .75 Core &\; .25 RD\n\nPricing: Free for all members\, $20 fo r non-members\n\nMeet the Host\n\n[box]\n\n\nScott Drexler\, PhD\, ACC\nSc ott is a pracademic\, an award-winning researcher and leadership coach wor king at the intersection of coaching\, high-reliability organization (HRO) science\, and extreme-context leadership.
