3. Mentor Coaching & Supervision

What is Mentor Coaching and Coaching Supervision?

For credentialing, the International Coaching Federation (ICF) defines mentor coaching as coaching an applicant on their coaching skills rather than coaching on practice building, life balance, or other topics unrelated to the development of an applicant’s coaching skill. Therefore, in mentor coaching sessions, the focus is on the core competencies and their expression in a session. In coaching supervision, the conversation scope is broader and may include a coach’s experiences from client sessions and various scenarios about how to handle them. The coach being mentored may bring their experiences to a coaching supervisor to engage in reflective dialogue and collaborative learning to develop and benefit themselves and their clients.

Tijen Genco as a Mentor Coach

I have been coaching since 2006 as an internal coach and external coach. I became a mentor and coach educator in 2015. My practice includes Executive, Life, and Wellbeing Coaching, supporting individuals and organizations in transforming by combining scientific and esoteric approaches to behavioral change. I am an ICF assessor and approved continuing education provider, supporting coaches’ development.

My students and mentees developed significantly from my direct, caring, and informative feedback. Through reflective dialogue and collaborative learning, we have substantially built their skills to benefit their clients and themselves.

Individual Mentoring

I review recorded coaching sessions offline and provide detailed developmental written feedback on the transcript and the coaching competency assessment form. The feedback forms are sent to the client-coach to review and prepare for the virtual session we will conduct for their developmental discussion.

Semi-Private Mentor Session

These sessions are available upon request for parties of four or two individuals. In these sessions, participants coach one another under my observation and mentoring. Participants will receive feedback from other participants and verbal and written feedback from me on the competency assessment form. These sessions will not have the depth of individual mentoring feedback since the limited written feedback is still quite helpful for the coach’s development.

Group Mentoring

These sessions are held weekly for ninety minutes. They are designed to enhance the coaching skills of the participants from both the art and science of coaching perspectives. Participants will practice coaching under Tijen’s mentoring. A considerable portion of the sessions are dedicated to practice. During the practicum part of the session, Tijen offers in-the-moment feedback and will point out the techniques that might be helpful during the coaching inquiry. NBHWC and ICF Competencies are covered throughout the class. The participants will have a virtual classroom where they share the class materials and submit deepening practices offered weekly.
