Group coaching, a combination of facilitating, teaching, and coaching, is most effective with three to ten people.  In Sylvia’s practice, she usually conducts group coaching with clusters of corporate executives, clusters of nonprofit executive directors, and clusters of business owners. 

During any given session clusters zero in on one problem until resolution is reached, one skill that must be fine tuned or learned, one issue that requires exploration, or one question that must be answered.  Focus is critical in each session.  Doing too many things in a single session is not recommended.

Group coaching can be done via teleconferencing or in person, on site. 

One session may last an hour, ninety minutes, or two hours.  Longer sessions generally are not productive.  The total number of sessions varies depending upon need and what the participants want to accomplish in this venue. 

Under Sylvia’s guidance, coaching is energizing, informative, supportive, and fun.
