Need to confirm whether we're doing away with speaker bios in the slide content.
Jerry Buchko
Would likely still like to provide some brief introduction at least.... What's the plan for Mary?
Michael Gutter
Yes, please add a brief bio and a photo on this slide. We plan to continue using these. Thanks for checking.
Jerry Buchko
Thanks for clarifying/confirming, Michael. Will do.
Mary Bell Carlson
Might consider paring this down to a few bullet points while Molly reads it. Just a consideration
Question: Have you ever coached or received coaching?
What kind?
How?
Molly Herndon
I would reword this to: "Have you ever coached or received coaching? How?"
Jerry Buchko
I like that; much clearer. I think I'll go with "What kind? How?"
Mary Bell Carlson
Maybe drop down the what kind? how? below so they are 3 distinct questions if that's what you are going for

Jerry Buchko
Barb reminded me of our Webinar Presentation Best Practices document <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eK37HOJoogOYm4N1VuAzxXKuJphC2FEzeBslVZJSZF8/edit> 1) Use key-takeaway slides at the beginning and end of presentation.2) Ask the audience a question tied to a key takeaway every 8 to 10 slides.3) Ask questions in the chat pod. Moderator (and others) can address the ones the speaker can’t get to.4) Use the key takeaway questions in social media after the webinar.5) Use a lot of white space on slides, promotes clarity.6) Use lots of images rather than words.7) Scale down diagrams, make as clear as possible.
Jerry Buchko
Barb's feedback & suggestions:On Mon, May 4, 2015 at 7:47 PM, Barbara O'Neill <[email protected]> wrote:Jerry et al.Reading this from my 4-day trip to Georgia this week. Good initial draft.Below is my feedback:* Throw out more Qs...Betsy wants a Q ever 10-12 slides.* Use a larger font on the Q slides along with a graphic like a screen bean question mark. IOW, fill up the page.* Use larger fonts and graphics on the conceptual history slides* Consider adding some case studies or coaching success stories* Don't forget the slides for Key Take-Aways and Key Take-Away Applications.* I like that you added the coaching CFPB info...you may want to expand it* Consider adding slides about where to find a financial coach and coaching certification programs and credentials.Hope this helps.Barb
Molly Herndon
I agree that the text size on this slide should be increased.
Jerry Buchko
This is where I'm feeling the greatest challenge with finding a balance between readability & trying to avoid clutter. In presentation/full screen mode I think it works and would also work if a viewer were able to adjust the full screen/level of zoom on their end. Would be really helpful if we could get into the DCO Connect room to review what's possible.

It looks like this graphic is an image - is that right? That would work better than a table or graph you've created in Word (we've had issues with those in Barb's PPTs before).
Jerry Buchko
Correct, this is an inserted image file, rather than a Word table or graph.Do you think it's crisp/sharp enough? I want to make sure it's not coming across pixelated or fuzzy. Could try a higher resolution but that might add to the file size.
Mary Bell Carlson
Can it be bigger?
Jerry Buchko
How does it look in presentation mode?

Mary Bell Carlson
There's a zoom in feature on Prezi that helps you focus on one area. Don't think google docs has it, but consider doing a cropping feature here to made that section stand out (still too small to read).
Jerry Buchko
Good to know. I'm curious to see how the zoom feature in the new DCS environment will work.

As someone who is coming into to this with little knowledge on the topic, I can tell you this is the more important slide for me.

As a coach, you are essentially modelling a process of self-regulation and self-learning that the client begins to learn through the experience of the coaching interaction with you.

In what settings could we use a financial coaching approach?
Mary Bell Carlson
Good # of questions to keep people focused and engaged!
Jerry Buchko
I'm intending to encourage & support active dialogue throughout the session, but here's the formal "Practitioner's Lounge" segment of the program... ;)
In what settings could we use a financial coaching approach?
When and how might we be able to use aspects of the coaching approach and particular techniques?
Coaching Key Takeaways

● About helping clients explore their own thinking and understanding, values and goals, and helping them develop action plans
● Rests on a foundation of a client driven, collaborative relationship
● Models a process of self-learning through
○ assessment
○ discerning values & goals
