Harold Thurman Whitman, philosopher & theologian

Welcome to the APP bulletin; coming to you each month between the quarterly newsletters to keep you informed and up to date with what's going on.

The Be part of something bigger event saw the launch of our exciting new membership programme; offering a host of real benefits for anyone wishing to invest in their own personal and professional development. With an introductory annual joining fee of only £45 and an opportunity to become a 'founding member', the Acorn Community is already beginning to take root.

It is inspiring to see our core principle - the acorn principle - reflected in the development of the Acorn Community: through support and nurturing, putting in place the right conditions, stepping back and allowing the initial seed of an idea to take root, we are now seeing the first green shoots appearing and are holding onto our vision of a strong, vibrant and thriving community in the coming year. To find out more or to become a member - click here.

Speaking of visions…we were delighted to have Lester Smulski share his vision with us at the launch. Those present benefitted from a co-coaching activity; feedback highlighted how the safe and supportive environment enabled people to enjoy the experience and one participant said she felt like she had ‘won the lottery’ when Lester coached her to connect with her own personal vision. The June event proved so popular that we have agreed to run it a second time for those that missed out…book your place now.

Certificate in Coaching Practice - 3 Easy steps to becoming a qualified Coach! Whether you want an introductory level course in coaching or 14 weeks practical training to achieve the AC Recognised qualification (or indeed an ILM qualification in Management Coaching over a longer term) it all kicks off on 12/13th September. Still a few places left so send now for further details or a booking form.

We need your ideas: In order to create a powerful and appropriate range of ongoing opportunities we are still keen to receive YOUR suggestions. You can contribute to our research by completing this questionnaire and returning it to Michele@theacornprinciple.com by the end of July 2009. The most popular requests will be reflected in the new annual APP Prospectus (to be launched in August 2009)

Breaking News:
Congratulations to APP Trainees: Heather Gordon, Kathy Todd and Fiona Way on passing the ILM Level 5 Certificate in Management Coaching & Mentoring. Way to go girls! We wish you all the best that coaching can bring for the future!!

Looking forward to a time of growth and a great summer!

Until the next time…keep noticing what you notice!

Michele Armstrong
Director, APP
