After over a decade working in the educational nonprofit sector, I'm looking to move into coaching and talent development with a specific focus on supporting current and emerging leaders working toward social justice and systemic equity. I have done work in talent development as a manager and facilitator in the nonprofit sector, but I am taking this next step to become a certified coach to deepen my learning and build my readiness to more fully step into a career in coaching.
I'll be participating in the Coaching for Transformation (CFT) program through Leadership that Works from June 2019-March 2020 in Oakland, CA . This program prepares coaches to take a holistic approach that considers the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual development and well being of coaching clients. It also takes a culturally responsive lens and seeks to address issues of power, privilege, and identity as important elements of leadership development. Coaches from the CFT program are working to build capacity in nonprofit organizations, social justice movements, and communities around the world. For all of these reasons, I am excited to participate in a program that aligns with my own values and hopes for the future.
$8495 covers tuition, mentoring, books, assessment, learning community and resources for the program
$1500 covers the cost of working with a CFT certified coach as part of the program (a required component of the program that must be paid directly to the coach, separate from program tuition)
The cost of $8495 must be paid by the start of the program on June 8th. The remaining $1500 will be paid directly to the CFT certified coach after the program begins.
I am deeply appreciative of any support my community is able to provide toward this new endeavor! This is a step and a program I've been interested in for awhile, but the cost has been a significant barrier for me. Folks that know me well know I am often reluctant to ask for help (and I'm working on that), and that has limited me from pursuing my goals and interests in the past. I am putting this request out there humbly and with gratitude for contributions of any amount that you are able to make. It truly all makes a difference and provides encouragement for me to continue on this path.
