There’s something uniquely catalytic about spending focused time with true masters of their craft—learning how they coach their clients, understanding the tools and practices they employ. Their mastery soaks into you, infusing your coaching with power and depth.
And when this happens within a gathering of other passionate and committed coaches from around the world, the experience can be genuinely life changing.
So, to celebrate 10 years of Coaches Rising, we’ve created The Coaching Summit, featuring 32 of the most incredible coaches we know.
Join us and…
- Learn powerful transformational tools and practices that the world’s top coaches employ in their change work

And it’s…free.
Wait, what? Yup. Registration for the entire event is completely free. All the sessions can be downloaded at any time. There are no hidden costs. It’s a gift to you, and the community of coaches around the world.
Come and join us, and together let’s make this the transformational coaching event of the year.

What you will learn during the Coaching Summit

Here’s the full schedule…
Overview of the Summit
We have an exciting and varied lineup of workshops, panels and coaching demonstrations.

Workshops
The Art of Somatic Coaching
Richard Strozzi-Heckler
2 April | 9am US Pacific / 6pm Central European
Somatic Coaching is a transformational, life-affirming process that creates change that sticks. In this workshop, you will be given an experiential tour of this embodied approach by the father of somatic coaching himself.
WORKSHOP
ITC: A Tool to Support Adult Development
Lisa Lahey
4 April | 9:30am US Pacific / 6:30pm Central European
A coachee’s “hidden commitments” can create an “immunity to change” and drive behaviors that work against fulfilling his or her development goals. Making such commitments explicit is the first step in enabling last change. We will use Kegan and Lahey’s Immunity to Change (ITC) approach to see more deeply into how to best support individual development, specifically focusing on the time in development when adults struggle with finding their own voice (according to Kegan’s constructive-developmental research).
WORKSHOP
Coaching Leaders to Deal with Chaos, Complexity, and Exponential Change
David Peterson
12 April | 10am US Pacific / 7pm Central European
Google’s head of coaching will guide you through some of the disruptive forces shaping the future of leadership, business, and executive coaching— such as artificial intelligence, and virtual reality. You’ll learn what you can do to prepare for this new, complex world.
WORKSHOP
Trauma-Sensitive Practices for Wellness Professionals
David Treleaven
11 April | 10am US Pacific / 7pm Central European
How can you safely offer body-based practices to clients who are struggling with trauma? as well as tips about recognizing trauma, responding to it skillfully in your clients, and actively avoid re-traumatization in your work.

Who Do We Choose To Be? Leaders as Warriors for the Human Spirit
Margaret Wheatley
12 April | 12pm US Pacific / 9pm Central European
The world needs leaders who recognize the harm being done to people and planet through practices that control and oppress the human spirit. Meg will lead us in an exploration of the imperative for coaches to step forward with courage to support sane leadership.
WORKSHOP
Integral Diversity & Inclusion
Gabriel Wilson
11 April | 12pm US Pacific / 9pm Central European
Gabriel will guide you through the Evolving Worldview’s process, a tour of four key worldviews: the ego centric, the ethnocentric, the world centric and the cosmic centric worldview. You’ll learn about the genius and limitations of each worldview, and how it can help you navigate the perspectives operating in your client or the groups you are working in with a specific focus on diversity and inclusion.
WORKSHOP
The Challenge of Visibility and Power
Wendy Palmer
9 April | 10am US Pacific / 7pm Central European
When our clients act from their power they become more visible. But power also has a shadow side, wielded from unconscious motivations. As coaches, we can help them use that power responsibly—with intent to care for others’ wellbeing.
WORKSHOP

Jim Dethmer
3 April | 10am US Pacific / 7pm Central European

Steven D’Souza
9 April | 12pm US Pacific / 9pm Central European

We will explore your responses when you, or your client, is at ‘the edge’ and feeling groundless, and how to bring more conscious choice into your response.

A Summit to Celebrate 10 years of Coaches Rising
It was over coffee in an Amsterdam cafe that we (Joel and Laurens, founders of Coaches Rising) first conceived of a company that would empower the world’s coaches.
10 years, 21 training programs, and 1000s of students later, we’re proud at the difference we’ve made to so many coaches as we all face the growing challenges of leadership and consciousness.
Coaches Rising is founded on the belief that there are few more powerful paths to coaching mastery, that being in close relationship with the world’s best transformation coaches, and learning how they work, up close.
Which is why we’re running this free summit to celebrate 10 years of Coaches Rising!
It’s for you if…
- You’re an experienced coach who wants to deepen their craft and learn from the best in the world.
- You’re a new coach, just starting out on the path and want some inspiration and tools.
- You’re a facilitator, consultant or change maker who works with people on their personal and professional development.
