Coaching at coCelerate

At coCelerate, we uphold a commitment to excellence, transitioning from great to exceptional through our consulting approach. We integrate the best management and leadership practices spanning history to the present, inspired by luminaries such as Peter Drucker, Brian Dassler, Werner Erhard, and many others. Our foundational philosophy combines a ‘learn-it-all’ mindset with decades of personal and leadership development experience gained in collaboration with esteemed institutions and programs like Harvard Business Review, Tony Robbins Seminars, and Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business.

What sets us apart is our collective 78 years of expertise in pioneering rapid learning cycles and resilience in the face of challenges. This allows us to generate transformative results for the myriad of clients we now regard as friends and partners.

Three Core Conversations

At the heart of our approach are three pivotal conversations that decode human actions and motivations:

  1. Perception and Performance: People’s performance is directly tied to their perception of situations. This universal principle guides our interventions.
  2. Language and Reality: How individuals describe their world, through both spoken and unspoken language, shapes their reality. We believe in the power of language to transform perceptions and possibilities.
  3. Future-Oriented Language: By altering our language, we can change our future landscape. This is the essence of creating new possibilities and transformative paths for our clients.

Self-Determination and Autonomy

Inspired by Richard M. Ryan and Edward L. Deci, pioneers of the Self-Determination Theory, we empower our clients to forge paths towards autonomy, competence, and relatedness—fundamental aspects of thriving individuals and organizations. Our unique diagnostic approach leverages evidence-based psychometric assessments and our proprietary methodologies to pinpoint challenges and map out effective strategies.

Performance Topology

Understanding the ‘why’ and ‘what’ behind actions and behaviors is crucial. Our clients navigate through complex topologies—patterns of cues, routines, and rewards—that influence their daily actions. Identifying and modifying these topologies can prevent stagnation and decline, as seen in cases like Kodak and Blockbuster. We help clients detect and shift these patterns to foster healthy, productive outcomes.

Putting The Work To Work

We go beyond traditional personal development plans, embracing the concept of “putting the work to work.” This proactive approach ensures that individuals and teams actively engage with and apply their learning to drive real change. Through continuous coaching and support, we guide our clients from rapid failure to significant achievements, celebrating each milestone along the way.

We invite you to explore coCelerate and share your story with us, as we strive to include your success in our collective legacy—E Pluribus Unum: Out of Many, One.

 

Negotiation and Conflict Resolution

This course helps individuals to develop their negotiation and conflict resolution skills and knowledge. We start by administering self-assessments to place each participant on an Assertiveness Scale and then teach how to develop a balanced, equitable approach in dealing with ‘difficult’ people or situations. We seek to develop skills by teaching hands-on, step-by-step solutions to professional situations including giving instructions, negotiating agreements, and conducting performance reviews. Finally, we seek to open each individual’s perspectives on conflict to understand the inherent opportunities. We explore the 5 distinct Conflict Styles and the benefits and detriments of each style within a variety of personal and professional settings. Finally, we teach practical steps to neutralize conflict and build stronger relationships. Participants who complete the course receive a Certificate in Negotiation and Conflict Resolution from The coCelerate Academy.
