SUMMARY:AI Coaches? Unpacking Human/AI Coaching for Coaches & the Coaching Profession
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Cliff Kayser\, PCC\nLearning strand: AI & Coaching\nProgram Description: \nHow will the growing availability of AI-driven Coaches revolutionize and upend the coaching profession? As a Human Coach\, how will you survive and thrive in a world in which the availability of AI Coaches provides 24/7 availability\, personalized feedback\, and tailored data-driven resources analysis and options for moving forward in real-time? \nIn this interactive session\, Human Coach participants will unpack some critical considerations present now and\, in the future\, using the Polarity Approach and Polarity Map® to unpack and design strategies to leverage the challenges\, and opportunities. There’s good news and bad news about this session – and let’s get the bad news out of way first. \nThe BAD NEWS: This session won’t alleviate the tension for us Human Coaches who might be feeling threatened by the prospects of the reality of AI Coaches entering the Human coaching profession space and any hope they won’t ever have to confront the issue\, because the issue isn’t going away now or in the future. Now on to the GOOD NEWS! \nThe session will provide a safe space for Human Coach participants (no AI Coaches will be in attendance!) to confront values and fears that may be present for them in the tension — head-on.  By confronting brutal facts and reality/ies\, participants can explore what an embrace for challenges looks like and perhaps even create some excitement about the opportunities and possibilities to best support client growth and development. At least\, participants will share an experience together that applies a powerful Human Coaching tool and process — the Polarity Map® and Polarity Approach (the 5-Steps of “S.M.A.L.L.” Seeing\, Mapping\, Assessing\, Learning\, and Leveraging) for this real-time and real-world issue.  Outcomes include seeing a more complete view of the realities and possibilities for client growth and development outside an “Either/Or” mindset\, leveraging our Human – intelligence and being. tiific \nLearning Objectives: \n\nlearn/apply the Polarity Approach (the 5-step “S.M.A.L.L.” Process: Seeing\, Mapping\, Assessing\, Learning\, and Leveraging) for the polarity of: AI Coach and Human Coach\nexplore Stability and Change in the context of designing and developing of leveraging strategies\n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:AI Through a Polarity Lens: Coach\, Client\, and Workforce
DESCRIPTION:In today’s rapidly evolving landscape\, artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping every facet of work\, relationships\, and for some — even the understanding of what it means to be human. For executive coaches\, this technological surge presents both exciting opportunities and significant challenges. Developed exclusively for ACTO\, this session will help you navigate challenges and opportunities of AI\, while staying true to the human-centric principles that form the cornerstone of effective coaching. \nThis session will use the lens of Polarity Thinking\, an approach to leveraging interdependent tensions that all of us humans experience – and have potential to leverage. For your coaching practice and client outcomes\, exploring some key polarities that underlie the AI frontier will help harness the benefits of AI (such as increased efficiency and data-driven insights)\, while at the same time safeguarding against AI’s inherent biases and massive potential to compromise ethics\, on-scale. \nAs executive coaches\, we’re uniquely positioned to lead in the transformation of organizational cultures as AI tools become more prevalent. So\, this session directly aligns with the mission and vision of ACTO by addressing how AI is impacting the practice of coaching and the broader workforce. Together\, we’ll explore practical strategies for engaging clients in conversations about AI’s impact\, preparing them to navigate the evolving work environment\, and addressing issues related to bias\, ethics\, and diversity\, equity\, and inclusion (DEI). We’ll embrace the hyper-paced advancements of AI while championing enduring values of coaching. Together\, we’ll ensure that as AI continues to transform workplaces\, we’ll be fully present\, visionary\, and deeply human. \nAnd the best part may be the gift of presence we provide in 90-minutes to one another in these uniquely challenging times — a “small island of coherence in a sea of chaos” (Ilya Prigogine). \nFor 90-minutes JOIN US on “coherence island” to explore how we Coaches can best support shaping human betterment in the age of AI. \nTake-aways include: \n\nStrategies to face difficult questions for both Coach and Client\, head-on\nA framework to support the Coach and Client amid extraordinary change

SUMMARY:Bridging Polarities - Bonus Event
DESCRIPTION:Bridging Polarities\nOn June 17 we had a rich and powerful session with Barry and Cliff\, to help your development process by improving the speed\, attainability and sustainability by leveraging polarity tensions within and between IDGs and SDGs.\nMany of you asked for more\, and we are happy to say: YES! There will be a bonus session with focus on application!\nYou are welcome to join this session even if you missed the first session. You will get access to it once you register.\nAbout the event\nSince 1975\, Barry Johnson has been pioneering the theory and practice of polarities—interdependent pairs that require thinking/acting in “Both/And” to be effective in inner and outer development\, over time. His recent book\, “And: How to Leverage Polarity\, Paradox\, and Dilemma\, Volume 1 – Foundations”\, offers a transformative lens for understanding how polarities operate in human systems—and how to harness their power in practice. \nIn this session\, Barry Johnson and Cliff Kayser (IDG Ambassador\, Aconcagua Cohort) will guide participants through a dynamic introduction to polarity thinking. You’ll gain essential awareness and tools to better embrace polarity tensions—both individually and collectively—as a way to bridge the gap between today’s complex challenges and the future we aspire to create. \nTogether\, we’ll explore why we get stuck\, and how we can move forward with greater wisdom\, agility\, and impact. This session will deepen your existing polarity wisdom and accelerate your capacity to hold complexity with compassion\, cultivate resilience\, and align inner development with systemic transformation. You’ll leave better equipped to contribute to the advancement of both the IDG’s and SDGs. \n  \nAbout the speakers\nDr. Barry Johnson is the creator of the Polarity Map® and a pioneer in Polarity Thinking®\, a framework that helps leaders and organizations navigate complex\, interdependent challenges. Since developing the first Polarity Map® in 1975\, he has worked globally to promote “both/and”; thinking over traditional “either/or”; approaches\, enhancing decision-making and organizational effectiveness. \nAs Chairman of Polarity Partnerships\, Dr. Johnson has introduced the Polarity Approach to Continuity and Transformation (PACT™)\, a methodology that includes tools like the Polarity Assessment™ to help organizations leverage polarities essential to their success. \nHe is the author of several influential books\, including Polarity Management: Identifying and Managing Unsolvable Problems and the two-volume series And: Making a Difference by Leveraging Polarity\, Paradox or Dilemma \nDr. Johnson holds a Ph.D. in organization development and has extensive training from the Gestalt Institute of Cleveland. His work is widely applied across sectors such as business\, government\, education\, and healthcare. \n  \nCliff Kayser is a seasoned leadership coach\, organizational consultant\, and thought leader based in Washington\, D.C.\, with deep expertise in values-based leadership and polarity thinking. He serves as Chief Learning Officer at Polarity Partnerships and is the founder of both the Polarities of Democracy Institute and Xperience\, LLC—organizations dedicated to helping leaders and institutions navigate complex challenges through the power of both/and thinking. \nCliff’s approach integrates Eastern wisdom traditions with contemporary leadership science\, blending philosophical insight with practical tools for performance measurement and organizational change. From his “happy place”—a 40-acre mountain retreat in Berkeley Springs\, West Virginia—he hosts and facilitates purpose-driven dialogues and renewal-focused retreats. \nIn 2024\, Cliff was named an Ambassador for the Inner Development Goals (Aconcagua Cohort)\, a global\, open-source initiative supporting the cultivation of inner capacities essential to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals—and advancing human flourishing on a healthy planet. \nCliff is an adjunct faculty at George Mason’s Center for the Advancement of Well-Being’s “Leadership Coaching for Organizational Well-Being” program and American University’s “KEY Executive Leadership” program. \nLearn more here!
