COACHING & BEHAVIOURAL CHANGE AT HENLEY Introduction Established in 2004, the Henley Centre for Coaching & Behavioural Change responds to the growing interest, from both individuals and organisations, in processes that enable managers and leaders to become more effective. The Centre delivers a range of programmes that enhance the skill sets of successful leaders, supporting their own progression as well as improvements in the teams that they lead. Over the past decade, Henley has built a reputation for the growth of executives and teams. We understand that training and educational interventions are most likely to deliver visible organisational outputs when they blend experience, group development and one-to-one reflective opportunities.

Our approach We develop coaching skills by bringing into our programmes a wide range of models, tools and techniques, together with the underlying psychological frameworks. This enables participants to broaden their knowledge, understanding and skills, and develop a psychological mind-set which creates wider possibilities for behavioural change. Our focus is pragmatic and experiential, rigorously underpinned by the behavioural sciences. All the tutors and contributors to our coaching programmes are experienced, senior-level, practising executive coaches, with strong grounding in both psychology and executive education.

Our aim is to create ‘bullet-proof’ coaches. By which we mean individuals who can coach effectively and appropriately in a range of settings, and with a level of self-awareness, confidence, understanding and resilience, that allows them to handle whatever a coachee might bring to them.

We innovate constantly, drawing on our leading-edge monitoring of the executive coaching world to ensure that our programmes continue to reflect the latest thinking. We are working on several exciting new opportunities, including the development of a practitioner research centre of excellence. We also provide customised programmes, recognising that coaching is increasingly seen as a core component of leadership and organisational development.

The Henley experience Henley offers the quality assurance of both University formal qualifications and the brand of a leading international business school to help coaches differentiate themselves in an unregulated and competitive market. Our coaching and executive education programmes are run worldwide. We use our cross-cultural and international experience to provide the global business context for coaching.

We are keen to work with a vibrant and evolving learning community and invite anyone interested in Coaching & Behavioural Change at Henley to come and talk to us about how they can be part of it. Whether you are an individual wanting to develop as a coach, or an organisation wishing to secure behavioural change, we want to have the conversation with you.

THE HENLEY MSc IN COACHING & BEHAVIOURAL CHANGEThe Henley MSc in Coaching & Behavioural Change is unique in its emphasis on the organisational context for coaching and the opportunity to carry out an original piece of practitioner research in the field. It has been designed to take the understanding and practice of coaching to a deeper and broader level with a focus on working collaboratively to effect behavioural change. Organisations increasingly look to coaching to help executives work through challenging business issues. These coaches may be drawn from within the organisation or may be external. All coaches need both first class coaching skills and the business acumen to apply them appropriately in equal measure. This programme addresses both these requirements.

Who is the programme for?The Henley MSc is designed for those who are using, and intend to develop further, a coaching approach either in a line management role or as a professional executive coach. Managers may also be seeking to build a business-focused coaching culture within their organisations. Participants will typically have a good first degree or an equivalent professional qualification, and a minimum of 5 years’ management experience.

However, applications are welcomed from individuals with substantial knowledge, experience and skills in a relevant field who do not meet these requirements. An excellent level of English is required and proficiency testing may be requested. Typical job titles include: VP HR, HR Director, Managing Director, HR Development Manager, Head of HR, Consultant and Business Coach.

Benefits to the individualCompletion of the Henley MSc will allow participants to:

• Understand the dynamics of coaching relationships: individual, team and organisational

• Increase their range of coaching tools and techniques and know when and how to deploy them

• Develop the judgement that facilitates coaching of senior managers

• Build an understanding of the psychological processes involved in behavioural change and how coaching can be used effectively to support this

• Build mastery and confidence in coaching by broadening and deepening participants’ knowledge and understanding of themselves and others

• Experience coaching supervision

• Apply their coaching skills to a piece of practitioner research which will develop their ability to align coaching with business objectives

Benefits for the organisation• Applied practitioner research relevant to

organisational coaches and a behavioural change context

• Development of understanding for a sustainable coaching culture

• Quality assurance around provenance of executive coaches

PROGRAMME CONTENTThis qualification is achieved in three stages:

Stage 1: The Henley Postgraduate Certificate in Coaching & Behavioural ChangeThis typically takes 9 months, with 17 workshop days. Two 5,000 word assignments form the assessment for this stage.

Module A: All the content from the Henley Professional Certificate in Coaching – see page 4.

Module B: Neuroscience & Psychology for behavioural changeThis module explores in more depth some of the tools and techniques that can support powerful coaching conversations. By considering relevant psychological theories and the latest research into neuroscience, you will have an opportunity to develop your ability and competence to support yourself and others to resolve issues, overcome barriers and embrace new behaviours and ways of thinking. By allowing sufficient time in between each module you are able to digest and practise the skills learned. To ensure you get the most from the programme there is a lively variety of learning formats including step-by-step practice, how-to demonstrations, group exercises and work in pairs and trios.

ExemptionsProspective participants who have completed the Henley Professional Certificate in Coaching within the last 5 years are exempt from Module A in Stage 1.

Stage 2: The Henley Postgraduate Diploma in Coaching & Behavioural ChangeThis stage takes around 9 months and comprises 3 modules involving 18 workshop days and is assessed through three 5,000 word assignments. During Stage 2 individuals are introduced to the principles and practice of coaching supervision and given the opportunity to work with a Henley qualified supervisor.

Module A: Advanced coaching practiceThis module develops some of the themes begun in the Henley Professional Certificate in Coaching and explores some of the more difficult situations a coach can face. These include interpersonal issues, coaching topics and contextual issues such as cross-cultural coaching, coaching and behavioural change in the international arena, and the business of coaching itself.

Module B: Group dynamics & systems thinkingThis module looks at groups, teams and the organisational level of coaching and behavioural change. The emphasis is on developing understanding of ‘the system’ rather than the individual response, and the dynamic nature of relationships. This module covers the knowledge, understanding and practice of working with groups within a system or organisation.

Module C: Becoming a reflective practitionerThis module develops the ability to reflect on the relationship between personal beliefs and the habits of interpersonal behaviour. It builds upon some of the psychodynamic models introduced in the Henley Professional Certificate in Coaching and enables the participant to achieve a high level of self-awareness and behavioural flexibility.


Stage 3: The Henley MSc in Coaching & Behavioural ChangeThis stage would typically take around 9 months and involves two written assignments – one of 15,000 words and one of 5,000 words.

Module A: The research projectThe applied research phase requires participants to carry out valid, Masters-level research on an applied, real-life coaching topic of their choice. Participants are supported by workshops in research techniques and data analysis.

Module B: Personal projectThis is begun during the Henley Postgraduate Certificate (stage 1). It encourages the participants to identify themes of personal development as a coach which are followed over the duration of the Masters programme. Participants will refine and adjust their project as they progress through the programme and receive coaching from other programme members.

The overall intention is that the personal project complements the research project as the final stages of the Masters programme. The personal project is designed to be inward looking, whilst the research project is about an external application of what has been learnt.

Key factsDurationThis programme is part time. It is scheduled over 30 months. Successful completion of each stage will be required before progression to the next

I’m more confident in my coaching ability and have acquired

a suite of new tools and techniques which I can make available to my coachees. There is no doubt in my mind that I will help people to be more effective and change their behaviours in so many more ways because of what I have learned at Henley.

THE HENLEY CENTRE FOR COACHING & BEHAVIOURAL CHANGE In recent years, there has been a substantial growth in demand for the programmes delivered by the Henley Centre for Coaching & Behavioural Change. As a result, the Henley Professional Certificate in Coaching runs on at least ten separate occasions in three different countries each year and the Henley MSc in Coaching & Behavioural Change is delivered annually. Moreover, the Coaching Centre will offer a number of events including Masterclasses, Snapshot Sessions and Supervision evenings, as well as our Open Day event and our Annual Conference.

A practitioner research centre of excellence Students on the earlier cohorts of the Henley MSc in Coaching & Behavioural Change have already delivered some outstanding practitioner research, looking at topics such as performance anxiety in coaches, addressing resistance to change, and exploring successful mentoring relationships. The research agenda will be further strengthened by our focus on the Doctoral Programmes offered by Henley, with increasing future collaboration between the Centre for Coaching & Behavioural Change and the departments of Psychology and Clinical Language Science at the University of Reading. Please contact us for further information.

Building a coaching community The Henley Coaching Centre provides on-going development for the coaching community through a number of events. The events consist of a mix of Masterclasses and Snapshot Sessions with expert practitioners. The Centre also provides the opportunity for coaching supervision to take place in small groups throughout the year.

Becoming a member of the centre The introduction of a membership offer is a natural step in the development of the Henley coaching community. This will benefit individuals but, crucially, will also be of value to organisations looking to implement a coaching culture or to deliver behavioural change in other ways. Our aim is to undertake sponsored research that addresses key concerns identified by our membership.
