LOCATION: Embassy Suites NEW LOCATION
Airport, 7901 34th Avenue S, Bloomington REGISTRATION
PROGRAM:
Have you ever considered what it would be like to open your Inbox only to discover an email notifying you that a breach of the ICF Code of Ethics has been adequately alleged in a complaint led against you? As with any ethical situation, there is rarely a clear-cut answer but lack of awareness or alignment with personal beliefs and values can cause a coach’s behavior and actions to lead to an unethical situation despite good intention. Given the confidential and emotional spaces we work in, without ethical awareness and curiosity, even well-intentioned coaches can make mistakes that put their business at risk and can be emotionally harmful to their clients.
You won’t want to miss this transformational discussion intended to expand your ethical curiosity, increase your ethical knowledge, and increase your awareness of the human side of ethics. Not only does ethical knowledge demonstrate your professional responsibility, but it can also serve to strengthen your confidence as a coach.
We will hear from a pastor/faculty member, Center for Ethical Organizations Director and lawyer, and Chair of the ICF Ethics Review Panel. Through moderated discussions, our professionals will help attendees discover how to approach these types of questions through an ethical lens, what the legal ramifications may be, and what resources ICF has available to support coaches for ensuring ethical standards are met.

MODERATOR:
Mary Kay Delvo, INspiring SIGHT, Organizational Alignment Coach | Speaker
As an organizational alignment coach, Mary Kay shakes up thinking, so organizations can discover the source of their pain and how to realign themselves. Her signature style invites honest conversations at the board and leadership level, creating a culture of candor, trust, and clarity.
Driven by her multi-sector experience, Mary Kay designed a unique process for coaching organizations through a strategic alignment process which teaches them to use their strategy as the litmus test for staying focused and on course. This, combined with her engaging and interactive style, develops effective boards who understand the difference between governance and management, allowing for productivity, engagement, and effective use of resources. Because systems are complex, evolving, and dynamic, she incorporates an understanding of multi-generational systems and the impact of broader cultural, societal, economic, and political shifts on all organizations, regardless of sector. Board work, coaching and strategy aren’t just her business, she is passionate about giving back and ensuring good governance is adhered to by serving on boards herself.
Mary Kay’s infectious energy and passion for leaving things better than she found them is obvious to all who work with her. She is an avid bicycler, sings the Star-Spangled Banner at sporting events, loves adventure, stream fishing, hockey, cards, board games, and writing. Growing up on a diversified family farm in ND, has kept her grounded. She has two sons, Ben, 19 and Lucas, 17.
