Her academic and professional research in coaching dialogues and pedagogy from the University of Toronto introduced a simple coaching model, Dialogic Orientation Quadrant (DOQ), that has contributed significantly to the areas of evidence-based coaching, dialogic organizational development, and heutagogical approach to education.
She currently teaches at both the University of Toronto and the Institute of Coaching, affiliated with Harvard Medical School. An internationally recognized speaker, Dr. Moon has delivered keynote addresses at global conferences, pioneering the essence of transformative conversations in both academic and professional settings.
Interfluence: Curating Stories of Purpose, Possibilities, and Progress
Learn how you can facilitate a “curative” conversation with your learners. Dr. Moon introduces how conversations, our "dwelling place", form intricate narratives that shape our existence and futures, using evidence-based coaching and communication science.
The core concepts explored in the session include coaching as interactions, revitalizing learner dialogues, embracing heutagogy, fostering autonomy and insight, and understanding the balance between valuing and evaluating in coaching and education.
SESSION OBJECTIVES:
Participants will gain insights into the following core coaching concepts, applied as a heutagogical approach to education:
- Coaching as Interaction: Develop an understanding of coaching as an intricate interactional process, emphasizing the need for a congruent epistemology.
- Revitalizing Learner Conversations: Explore deeper into the impact and significance of dialogues in molding insightful, effective, and inspired educators.
- Embracing Heutagogy: Familiarize with the principles of heutagogy, emphasizing its learner-centric approach. Appreciate how self-determined learning can inspire educators to refine their methods, adapting to diverse learner needs.
- Fostering Autonomy and Insight: Acknowledge the power of enriched dialogues in creating an environment where learners feel empowered, and educators feel equipped to guide with precision.
- Valuing vs. Evaluating: Traverse the intricate dynamics between appreciation and assessment in both coaching and education. Learn the factors that influence how we measure performance, emphasizing a process-oriented approach.
