Welcome to the Coach Exchange!
NEW THIS YEAR: Welcome to the Coach Exchange!
What happens when coaches gather around the table, not just to listen, but to exchange ideas, ask questions, share experiences, and learn from one another?
Introducing the Coach Exchange, a brand-new experience at this year’s conference! Choose two 30-minute interactive Table Talks led by experienced coaches and thought leaders. These smaller conversations are designed to get you thinking, talking, connecting, and walking away with ideas you can put into practice.
Positioning Your Coaching on LinkedIn | Dr. Aikyna Finch
Move beyond simply being visible on LinkedIn and think more intentionally about how you position yourself as a coach. Dr. Finch will help you explore how your expertise, experience, voice, values, profile, and content can work together to build credibility, connection, and meaningful opportunities, without feeling overly promotional.
How to Set Up Coaching for Mastery | Hannah Finrow, MCC
What if masterful coaching begins with how we establish the relationship? Hannah will lead a conversation about creating the conditions for deeper coaching through presence, partnership, and client ownership, while exploring how who we are as coaches influences how we show up in the relationship.
The Stories We Tell and the Presence We Bring | Matthew Kodsi, M.D., Ph.D.
Explore how the stories clients tell themselves can influence perception, behavior, choices, and possibilities. Drawing from his work on story and presence, Matthew will share practical frameworks coaches can use to deepen awareness, listening, connection, and presence in their coaching.
Coaching Supervision | Renee Fluty
You’ve heard more about coaching supervision, but what is it, how is it different from mentor coaching, and what value can it bring to your practice? Renee brings decades of experience in counseling, coaching, and supervision to an open conversation designed to answer questions, challenge assumptions, and spark curiosity about this growing area of professional development.
Coaches Get Triggered Too: When Your EQ Meets the Coaching Moment | Jennifer Gamble
Coaches have reactions, too. Through a realistic coaching scenario, peer discussion, and reflection, Jennifer will explore what happens when a coaching moment triggers something in us and how greater self-awareness and curiosity can help us choose responses that strengthen presence and partnership.
Belonging Starts Here: Find Your Community at ICFTN | Sylvie Maury
Coaching can be solitary work. We spend so much of our time creating space for others, yet we also need places where we feel connected, supported, and understood.
And belonging matters. Research links belonging to well-being, resilience, and our ability to thrive.
In this interactive 30-minute roundtable, we won’t just talk about belonging; we’ll experience it.
Through a brief activity, conversation, and reflection, you’ll connect with other coaches and notice what helps you feel seen, heard, and included.
You’ll leave with new connections and questions you can use throughout the conference to move beyond introductions and into more meaningful conversations.
Six conversations. You choose two. Come ready to exchange.
The Coach Exchange is just one of the new experiences waiting for you at this year’s conference. Which two tables will you choose?
Register for the conference today and join us at the table!
