MasterClass: Demonstration of Coaching with Roy Marriott, MCC
Roy will demonstrate coaching in the “InterActional” style that is particularly suited to leaders facing complexity, uncertainty and change.
This coaching approach, developed by Kirsten Dierolf MCC, is founded on the “Solution Focused” approach. This approach is incredibly badly named (see Roy’s talk “Why Solution Focus doesn’t mean focusing on solutions!”). It’s a highly respectful approach, that helps clients clarify what they really want, and helps them find their own ways forward even in seemingly impossible situations.
InterActional coaching develops it further, aligning with the ICF criteria for MCC level coaching, including elements from Narrative Therapy that fit well into a coaching context. This enables a focus on both the pragmatic “coaching the what” and transformational “coaching the who”, in a way that feels natural, practical and “down to earth,” even to potentially sceptical technical leaders.
After the Demonstration Roy will invite feedback on what people noticed about the coaching – what seemed to work well and how people think it could potentially have been even more beneficial for the client. He will be happy to answer questions about the coaching approach, including models such as the “coaching gallery” and the “double diamond” of coaching.

Learning Objectives tied to Core Competencies:
During the coaching Roy will demonstrate InterActional ways of modelling all the ICF competencies, and coaches will take away new questions and ways of interacting that will support them in serving their clients even better than they already do. It will also support their reflections on their own coaching, and how it is similar and different to the demonstration. Furthermore, depending on the questions participants bring, they will develop some understanding of the InterActional, SolutionFocused and Narrative approaches, and additional ways that the ICF competencies can show up in MCC level coaching.
