During the 90-minute audio conference sponsored by the Healthcare Intelligence Network (HIN), Wellcoaches Corporation CEO Margaret Moore will describe coaching theories and strategies, then showcase these strategies by conducting a live coaching demonstration with a volunteer "client."

QUOTES ATTRIBUTABLE TO MARGARET MOORE, CEO OF WELLCOACHES:
"What happens in the [live coaching session so often is that you hear a breakthrough in insight and a shift in the client's energy and sense of what they can do. When you observe that mini-transformation over 15 minutes, you realize that this is a different relational interaction than you are accustomed to listening to."

"Through their telephonic, Web-based and personal encounters with patients, health coaches already score big gains for health plans and providers in clinical outcomes and healthcare cost reduction. However, it's important to emphasize the mind-body connection during these encounters. This audio conference will give coaches a chance to learn from one another."
