Nathan delivered a series of sessions to me and many other delegates, through the Animas Centre for Learning training programme, Neurodiversity: context and skills for effective practice.
There’s a lovely expression that powerful communication is simple and generous to your audience. The way Nathan communicated and explored neurodiversity coaching was warm, engaging, human and made sense.
He brought coaching concepts to life in a way that has really stuck with me in my own practice, for example his aeroplane analogy (ask him!). He also spoke with a lot of common sense about the boundaries of coaching, and about avoiding being purist in service of the client. “We can wear different hats at different times” is something he said that still resonates with me.
It was nearly a year ago, but his ideas and advice still feel fresh and have stayed front and centre in my thinking about coaching. Thank you, Nathan.
