Empowering the Client-in-charge to improve daily life

What can we learn as client in co-counselling from Carol Dweck when she talks about the ‘Growth Mind Set’. We can ask the same about the ‘Solution focused approach’ in coaching.

During the Conference we will adopt theCo-operative enquiry’ method developed by John Heron and Peter Reason. We will experiment upon ourselves with the different suggestions from traditional co-counselling, the ‘Growth Mind set and the ‘Solution focused approach’.

The sharing of our experiences will deepen our Self Understanding and help us be more effective as Co-workers supporting others to serve themselves well as clients. As usual for the McoCo Conference this sharing will result into a report to the coco community at large, published on CoCoInfo.


The conference will take place the 5 May 2015 and Lilian Brzoska will host it in her house in Kirkcaldy, near Edinburgh.
