Part 1 of 4 Part Series: Linguistics is the study of the nature, structure, and variation of language, including phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, sociolinguistics, and pragmatics. We will look at key distinctions in the "technology of language" - both yours as a coach and your clients. This class will focus on two main areas -- assessments and assertions and how you can start separating fact from story and the "phenomena" versus the "explanation of the phenomena". This one tool is absolutely essential to coaches not being "stuck" in the client's worldview. This is the first of 3 classes covering linguistics.

Ontology is the study of the "way of being" of an individual, team or organization. Ontology gives even very experienced coaches new "distinctions" in order to work with their clients in a deeply transformative way. In this first class we will introduce the 3 primary domains of ontology - linguistics, emotional realm and somatics as areas for discovery. We will also look at first and second order learning and the concept of the "observer" or witness state. We will also introduce the concept of "breakdown" or "break in transparency". Through understanding the distinctions that are often “invisible” to most coaches we can help people have dramatic insights, learn to awaken to new possibility all by using this “multi-lens” and multidisciplinary approach. The basic models and worldview that help you observe and lead differently. What is a "Breakdown" and how does it Affect Transformaiton, Midfulness and Collaboration? (Intro to Basic Ontological Distinctions - BEL and OAR and Breakdown...).
