Group coaching is taking many forms globally, given that it is driven and shaped by the various needs of different client groups. The group coaching conversation can feel “wide and broad” rather than the deep dive of an individual coaching conversation which is why I often offer some one-on-one time with multi-day group coaching programs.
Besides the perks of working with a coach, group coaching clients also benefit from the peer learning with others, commonly referred to as the collective wisdom of the group.
Group Coaching vs Workshops
Describing the difference between Group Coaching and workshops is surprisingly difficult since often the lines can blur given I am prone to using my coaching skills even in workshops and the topics can be similar.
The main difference is that in group coaching sessions my primary focus is on taping the collective wisdom of the group using various coaching skills and providing accountability to participants, while in a workshop my focus is on providing tools, information, and other resources to teach certain practical skills.
Workshops are usually short – a day, weekend, or week, while group coaching usually holds meetings on a regular basis for a longer period of time with participants doing their own work between sessions, although single-day events do happen.
