The GCC is going 24 -7,all day, all week


We are looking for ways to expand the space that the GCC can hold.

The proposed schedule for the GCC was originally planned as the week of 10th - 17th October 2010, and times were 8am to 8pm London Time GMT. The focus was to be Monday to Friday, 10 sessions a day. Enough? No, not enough. The 50 sessions with 1000 tickets filled up quickly and we saw that we need to make more space for more people. So we are looking for ways to make it possible to run the Global Coach Conference 24 - 7, all day, all week.

Phew!

First week's bookings 3%

Out of curiosity, I had a quick look at the number of tickets booked today. I was going to wait until Friday, but I really couldn't wait. And three percent of the tickets are already booked. At this rate we might run out of tickets!


The right number of people
Ideally each session should have the right number of people. And what's right for each session differs depending on what the speaker intends to do with their audience. Some sessions are more interactive - where the audience become participants and talk with each other. Other sessions are more like lectures - where the audience have time to hear and reflect on what the speaker is saying.

We set a limit of fifty people per session, yet in some cases five would be just right. In others five hundred would also be possible.

We shall wait and see how many people are interested, then contact the speaker and design the best way of using their session. It's all about being flexible and allowing yourself to learn!

Look forward to seeing your name on the list of participants too.

First day's bookings 1%

Here's a huge thanks to EventBrite for giving me the platform that I need to co-ordinate the sales of 1500 tickets  (50 tickets for each of 30 sessions -just to begin with). The platform also makes it possible for me to receive payments and donations of money, in the best possible way.

And the first day saw 1% of the tickets booked!.

It was enormously rewarding for me to see the bookings - and confirmation of payments and donations - pop up in my e-mail in-tray.

Sweden is the centre of the coaching world

PRESS RELEASE GLOBAL COACH CONFERENCE 2010

Suddenly and for no other reason than one person took the initiative, the small town of Utby in Sweden will be the centre of attention for the coaching world for a week in October.

UK born, CoActive Coach Martin Richards is organising the second series of telephone sessions of the Global Coach Conference , the largest virtual coach conference of 2010 with speakers from China, Australia, India, Trinidad, South Africa, Europe, the UK, and of course the USA.

"It started with a desire to speak with like-minded people, about their perspectives on how coaching serves the world," said Martin. Last year on 090909 the phone conference attracted over a hundred participants, and lasted a continuous 25 hours, with Martin as the host for every session. "It was a one-man telephone marathon," said Martin, "and gave me a broad perspective and a deep appreciation of the benefits that coaching brings." The connections between people made before and during the conference have resulted in long-lasting collaborations, a sign of coaches common need to connect and collaborate.

This year over 20 speakers are freely giving over 30 sessions under the heading "7 Days to Change the World", covering many aspects of professional and private life. During and after the conference people will continue to connect and collaborate to bring their skills to the service of others.

The whole conference will be run from a small office at the temporary center of the global coaching world, Utby, Sweden.
