This program presents strategies for teaching microskills based on Daniel Coyle's book, "The Talent Code." Coyle identified how the world's best training program in the arts and athletics use common strategies that enable students to achieve high performance levels previously thought to have been reserved for the innately talented. The presenters will demonstrate how these same teaching and practice strategies developed for athletes and musicians can maximize the skills of counseling students. Participants will practice these strategies in experiential exercises.
