Cam
on Denslow:
“When Denslow asked me to teach this program I jumped at the
chance. She is an innovator in both fields of coaching and organizing.
In the classroom, her abundant knowledge and warmth create an environment
that maximizes the learning process for students and co-leaders alike.
I always learn something when I teach with Denslow.
“It’s a real thrill to be collaborating with her in bringing
the power of coaching to the world of organizing. I see the real value
of coaching not so much as a stand alone entity but more of an adaptable
skill set to plug in to other professions (such as organizing, training
and consulting) where effective communication is paramount. For the
discerning organizer, developing effective coaching skills will certainly
distinguish them from the rest of the field.”
Coach
Approach graduates comment on Denslow's training in this program:
"Denslow is an excellent, highly skillful trainer. She can articulate
aspects of what she is perceiving and experiencing with a level of
insight, nuance, humor and depth that is very rare, in my experience.
She is extremely supportive, affirming, inclusive, patient, honest.
She is also able to draw on decades of professional experience and
training, as well as her own personal development -- that is a rich
well from which to drink."
"Denslow's style is unique and I was grateful to have a more
in-depth opportunity to benefit from it."
"Denslow is awesome! She is so affirming and such a great role
model."
"Amazing. To be exposed to someone with your expertise –
and then to share with us all you did – has been 'wonderfully
useful to me', and now to my clients. You are a gifted and inspiring
teacher."

Denslow
on Cam:
"From the first coaching lab Cam and I taught together I realized
that this was a trainer who cared deeply about the learning of each
student and class. He consistently identifies the key next step or
insight that would best serve that training situation. The (non-ADD)
coaching training he went through (at CTI) is the best available,
in my opinion.
"As a husband, an active parent of a young son, and an athlete
(and someone who is not a professional organizer), he brings some
different perspectives from my own which benefit all our students.
Another high-intelligence, high-functioning adult with ADD, we have
a great time teaching together and are able to keep the classes on
track, comprehensive and well-focused."
Coach
Approach graduates comment on Cam's training in this program:
"Cam is direct, accepting, and very easy to relate to. He has
the quality of seeing what is going on and describing it vividly and
in human terms."
"I appreciated his use of metaphor, his sharing of his own experiences
and examples, especially with his clients. At certain points, he would
share something he asked a client … which then stayed with me
for the ensuing weeks and I was able to immediately incorporate into
my process and found very useful.”
"I so appreciate Cam's insightful comments and always asking
me to go a bit further with my answers. I have been eager to work
with someone with that skill."
"Cam – gotta be honest – wasn't thrilled you were
joining us – but I did a total 180 – I think your perspective
was tremendously valuable; loved that you had a lot of coaching knowledge;
loved your style of coaching; loved your calming and supportive way;
loved that you understood our role as organizers – I think that
was the part I was afraid of – but you "get it" –
so it was great."
"Cam's part in this, as a non-organizer, was crucial to helping
me see the connection between ADD and Coaching. I've known it works,
but until this class never knew why. I know through my current client
contact that I am already a better organizer than I was before I started
your class."
Denslow

graduates of OFI's intensive 18-month program in ADD Coaching which
was developed by Madelyn Griffith-Haynie (the inspired inventor of
ADD Coaching). They know their collaboration provides an extraordinary
learning experience for their students. They began teaching this course
in 2006.
