"Action is only as good as the thinking behind it.
Thinking is only as good as the way we treat each other while we are thinking". - Nancy Kline
The Time to Think Partnership course developed by Nancy Kline is the unique and powerful framework for independent thinking. The programme (six- four-hour long sessions on Zoom) is an intensive, experiential course designed for up to 6 participants, for maximum practice and learning.
The course content explores the theory and practice of the Ten Components of the Thinking Environment and its use in the Thinking Partnership® Session. The Thinking Session is the bedrock of the Time To Think approach. Learning to give the extraordinary attention that enables people to think for themselves with unprecedented clarity and courage is an essential leadership, coaching or mentoring expertise.

Aims and Objectives
To learn the process and skills of the Thinking Partnership session. To explore all Ten Components of a Thinking Environment - their application to, and their impact on, individual thinking. To examine and acquire skill in the construction of Incisive Questions. To have time to think, with precision, about issues of importance to you To become familiar with, and able to give and participate in, Thinking Sessions effectively To enable you to experience this quality of thinking and listening both as a Thinker and as a Thinking Partner |
This profoundly impactful way of being a coach/listener is supported by a growing body of neuropsychological evidence. This helps us to understand how, and why, the quality of one person's attention impacts on the quality of another person's thinking, on their decisions and actions.
This way of being is regarded by many as an essential coaching and mentoring skill, ideal for all those managing and leading people: the training and application of it is also a valuable personal development experience. This course equips you with skills for many contexts: 1-to-1 coaching and mentoring, day-to-day discussions, team leadership and management, client relationships, as well as your personal life. Essentially it improves communication and understanding on all levels with all people at all times. |
"We empower organizations by creating opportunities for people to hear and respect each other. When this is so, both work-flow and the experience of satisfaction in work improves. Demonstrably. This may seem a simplistic and obvious statement, but for the most part it does not happen in organisations. Our mission is to teach and demonstrate that thoughtful facilitation frees people to be both responsible and creative in their work environment. These are skills that can be learned and used to make meetings work and work well." - Maryse Barak
