Speaker Bio:

Kerri Burchill, PhD

Dr. Kerri Burchill, PhD, serves as President of North Star Coaching, her independent consulting company that focuses on helping leaders slow down to go fast. In addition to individual and team coaching, Kerri’s work includes keynote speaking, designing and implementing leadership development programs, facilitating difficult conversations, increasing accountability through team building activities, and consulting on organizational initiatives.

Almost 20 years ago Kerri and her partner felt that their life was a bit too comfortable, so they positioned themselves to stretch. Despite being short-tracked in her career, they made some decisions that resulted in Kerri working in three countries, six cities, and nine different leadership roles over a nine-year period.

In all of these opportunities, Kerri observed leaders spinning and fighting fires all day, rarely getting to their leadership work. These observations fueled her academic research, peer-reviewed publications and her recently published book, Leading out of the ASKhole® Trap. Kerri has earned her ICF MCC coaching certificate, a rigorous demonstration of skills including over 2,500 of paid coaching hours.

Today, Kerri lives in San Antonio with the best decision of her life and a very spoiled dog. (www.kerriburchill.com).

From Competent to Confident: Demonstrating ICF Core Competencies in Real-Time Coaching

Description:

Great coaching is more than understanding the International Coaching Federation Core Competencies—it is the ability to demonstrate them naturally, intentionally, and confidently in the moment. This interactive workshop helps coaches strengthen their coaching presence, deepen active listening, and ask purposeful questions that create meaningful client awareness and action. Through live demonstrations, guided practice, and real-time feedback, participants will learn how to move from “performing coaching” to confidently engaging in authentic coaching conversations that align with ICF standards and elevate client impact.

Learning Objectives:

1. Demonstrate key ICF Core Competencies in live coaching conversations with greater confidence and intentionality.

2. Apply active listening, coaching presence, and powerful questioning techniques to deepen client awareness and engagement.

3. Recognize real-time coaching moments that support trust, emotional awareness, and meaningful client growth.

4. Strengthen coaching delivery by reducing overthinking, improving flow, and responding more effectively during live coaching interactions.

ICF-SA Members / Associates: $25

The Listening Edge (ICF North America) (July 23, 2026)

Thu, 23 Jul 2026 16:00:00 GMT

PLEASE NOTE: Registration for this event is a 2-step process. Details below.

Description:

Most coaches believe they're already good listeners. Research shows we process information four times faster than people speak — and our minds naturally wander, judge, or prepare responses rather than truly absorbing what's being communicated.

Drawing directly from ICF Core Competency 6 (Listens Actively) and supporting Competency 5 (Maintains Presence), this highly interactive session challenges coaches to expand their listening repertoire and develop agility to adapt their approach to what each unique client needs in the moment.

In this interactive session, you will:

Identify your own listening style and default listening patterns
Understand how to flex between listening habits for greater coaching effectiveness
Gain tools to transform their listening and become more effective communicators

CCEUs:

1.5 Core Competencies

Fees:

ICF-SA Members/Associates: $25

ICF-SA Affiliates/Guests: $35

Registration:

PLEASE NOTE: Registration for this event is a 2-step process:

1) Chapter members must register and pay for the program through their local chapter (ICF-SA)

2) Once you register locally, you will receive a zoom registration link, which allows you to register through Zoom to attend the ICF North America event. YOU MUST COMPLETE BOTH STEPS.
