Workshop Day 2

Workshop
Co-Creating the future of coaching with Co-Development Action Learning (CAL)

This 90-minute workshop offers a live experience of an updated co-development approach—Co-Development Action Learning (CAL)—in a fishbowl format. One participant (the coach-client) will bring a real challenge: “How can we co-create the coaching of tomorrow?”

The group will follow the CAL process step by step, with the opportunity to download tools and use live polling software that enables all participants to contribute in real time. Observers will actively participate through technology, making the session inclusive and dynamic.

Participants will learn by doing, not just by listening. They will discover how CAL creates a structured space for dialogue and co-creation, and will leave with practical tools and concrete ideas to integrate into their coaching practice.

Workshop
Nature: a tool or a coaching partner? (in French)

What if nature became your co-facilitator?

In an increasingly complex world, this workshop invites you to explore nature not as mere scenery, but as an active partner in the coaching process, whether in person, outdoors, or virtually.

Through an immersive and participatory experience, you will distinguish between coaching in nature and integrating nature into coaching. You will participate in concrete activities that engage the senses, metaphors, and symbolic references of the living world to deepen presence, listening skills, and the coach-client dynamic.

You will leave with clear and transferable tools to integrate nature into your practice, whether in the office, outdoors, or online.

Workshop
Coaching in action: revealing the skills behind every conversation (in French)

Professional coaching isn't just about asking good questions or listening attentively. What truly makes the difference lies elsewhere: in a conscious posture, intentional presence, and finely embodied skills.
This 90-minute immersive workshop offers a fresh perspective on coaching.

Through video clips inspired by real-life situations, you'll be invited to observe, feel, and decode what unfolds within the coaching relationship. It's an opportunity to make visible skills that are often invisible—and to better understand what transforms a conversation into a genuine catalyst for reflection and action.

Workshop
The state of coaching research put to the test in the field

This experiential workshop offers a structured space for reflection grounded in the participants' lived experiences. Through a dialogic approach in small groups, you will be invited to explore your reactions, recognize your strengths and areas for improvement, and identify key elements to guide your practice.

Workshop
Leadership in Motion: Trends, Development, and Coaching

Over the past ten years, leadership has evolved in a context marked by complexity, uncertainty, and a growing demand for awareness and accountability.

This workshop offers an informed reading of this evolution through longitudinal leadership data, exploring both the trends observed over time and the developmental trajectories associated with greater self-awareness and intentional growth efforts.

Together, participants will examine what these analyses reveal about how Canadian leaders are transforming — and what this concretely means for the posture, levers, and choices of the coaches who accompany them.

This workshop is designed for coaches who wish to ground their practice in data while developing a coaching approach aligned with current and emerging leadership challenges.

Workshop
Dancing with the Living: Group supervision for coaches
Presented by Dominique Barbès et Sophie Gélinas

With its 2025 competency revision, ICF affirmed coach supervision as an essential pillar of professional, ethical, and identity‑based development. This dedicated space allows the coach to ground themselves, create room for emergence, and listen to what the system holds but has not yet revealed.

Participants in this immersive workshop will experience group supervision firsthand. Together, we will observe how the Living manifests and informs the coach's practice through narratives, emotions, silences, resonances, and movements within the coach-client system.

The experience unfolds in 3 acts, giving each participant the opportunity to explore a coaching situation: centering and connection; collective supervision experience; gratitude, integration of learning, stepping back, and a fresh perspective.

Arrive with your lived experiences, your curiosity, and your sensitivity to the Living. Let yourself be carried into a deep, joyful, and transformative collective exploration of supervision.

Through observation of the living world (including equine dynamics) and interactive experiences, you will explore how nature embodies presence, listening, adaptation, and collective intelligence.

Workshop
Développez votre maturité éthique : une clé essentielle pour enrichir votre pratique! (in French)

This enriching workshop invites you to explore how developing your ethical competence can become a powerful lever to progress in your coaching practice. By developing this competence, you will learn to better perceive and recognize the ethical issues that cross your daily practice, to be better equipped to resolve complex dilemmas with a nuanced and coherent approach, in addition to promoting your agility to interact with your clients, colleagues or any other organizational stakeholders in contexts that give rise to tensions.

Through interactive experiences and stimulating exchanges, you'll discover how to adopt a reflective posture to embrace the multiple dimensions of an ethical situation - contextual, emotional and cognitive. As a result, you'll be better equipped to navigate complex dilemmas with a more nuanced and coherent approach.

Join us to go beyond binary solutions and embrace the full richness of ethical issues in all their complexity. This workshop offers you the opportunity to cultivate a deep ethical sensitivity, essential for enriching your practice and accompanying your customers with authenticity and discernment in their transformation processes.

Workshop
Cultivating positive mental energy to support the ICF coach’s posture

In a context marked by mental overload, organizational complexity, and socio-political chaos, coaches are called upon to maintain a reassuring and non-judgmental presence with their clients. This workshop explores how regulating the coach's mental energy directly influences the quality of the coaching relationship and can foster client growth.

The facilitators will share their discovery of Shirzad Chamine's Positive Intelligence approach and its tool. Participants will be guided to experiment with the approach and the tool inductively, as a complementary and non-prescriptive practice.

Before the workshop, pre-registered participants will be invited to complete a free self-assessment questionnaire about the tool. During the workshop, a short, collaborative interpretation of the questionnaire results will be conducted with all participants. A coaching demonstration using the tool will be performed, participants will be invited to observe and comment, a group debriefing will follow, and potential applications will be identified.

Closing conference
Slowing Down to Lead Better (in French)

In a world that never stops accelerating, Rémi Tremblay offers a rare opportunity, a genuine pause to slow down, settle in, and reconnect with what truly matters.

With a deeply human approach, he invites each participant to return to themselves in order to better support others, cultivating awareness, presence, and inner stillness.

Drawing on nearly 20 years of experience working with leaders, he creates a space for reflection that allows participants to step back, broaden their perspective, and rediscover meaning in their practice. This closing keynote becomes a moment of recentering, where performance and humanity come together naturally.

Participants leave with renewed clarity, a sense of calm energy, and concrete reference points for embodying a more conscious, sustainable, and deeply authentic leadership style.
