This one day workshop will explore the contribution that the theories and models of Transactional Analysis can make to the coaching process.
What is Transactional Analysis?
Transactional Analysis, or TA as it is more commonly known, is both a theory of personality and a system for the improvement of personal and social functioning, within the humanistic tradition.
The philosophy of TA emphasises that respect and empathic acceptance are essential. Its practice is based on a contract between the practitioner and the client in which they take equal responsibility towards common goals. The method and concepts are made open to the client in the understanding that power is shared.
TA provides a systematic approach to understanding the links between human needs and behaviours, and the ways that organisations and those within them are effective or ineffective in establishing relationships, solving problems, serving their clients and stakeholders. TA is a robust psychological framework for developing individuals, teams and whole organisations.
Coaching – What does TA have to offer?
TA offers a robust set of integrated theories that enrich coaching practice without getting in the way of the immediacy of the coaching process. The theories of TA can be used to help the coach understand their own attitudes and reframe their identity. The accessible TA models support the coach's work with clients to promote growth, development and change.
