Many people today face questions such as:

•    Should I stay, pivot or reinvent my career?
•    How do I find greater purpose and meaning in my work?
•    What should my next chapter look like?
•    How do I make difficult life decisions with confidence?
•    How can I move forward when I feel stuck?

Life Design Coaching helps individuals approach these questions using the mindset and tools of a designer — viewing life not as a problem to solve, but as a journey to be explored through curiosity, experimentation and action.

Rather than providing advice, Life Design Coaches help clients build awareness, generate possibilities and take purposeful steps toward a well-designed life.

This programme is designed for coaches and professionals who support the growth and development of others, including:

•    Professional, executive and career coaches
•    Internal coaches and mentors
•    HR and Learning & Development professionals
•    Managers and people leaders
•    Educators, counsellors and helping professionals

Participants should possess an ICF coaching certification or equivalent coaching training and experience.

A Flipped Classroom Learning Experience

To maximise coaching practice, discussion and application during the workshop, we use a “flipped classroom” approach.

Rather than spending classroom time on lectures, participants complete pre-learning before attending so that our in-person sessions can focus on practice, reflection, coaching conversations and feedback.

This allows for deeper learning, richer discussion and greater application to real-life coaching situations.

Pre-Workshop Preparation

Participants should expect approximately 7–8 hours of pre-work prior to attending.

This includes:

•    Pre-recorded learning modules
•    Reflection exercises and written assignments
•    Review of Designing Your Life tools and frameworks
•    Preparation of coaching case studies for workshop practice

Participants are strongly encouraged to complete all pre-work before the workshop begins.

Participant Preparation

Prior to the programme, participants will be asked to:

•    Submit a short professional biography and profile photo
•    Prepare three coaching case studies from their own practice
•    Review workshop materials and workbook
•    Complete certification documentation and agreements

In-Person Workshop Experience

Over two highly interactive days, participants will:

•    Learn directly from Bill Burnett and Mark Wee

•    Practise Life Design Coaching tools in small groups
•    Apply the methodology to real coaching situations
•    Receive peer and faculty feedback
•    Explore how to integrate Life Design principles into their own coaching practice

The workshop is intentionally experiential, practical and highly participatory.
