As a provocative coach, you intentionally say or do something to provoke a reaction from the client. We use playful confrontation, stereotypes, and paradoxes to stimulate others and encourage them to think and act from new perspectives.<\/p>\n We work with the original principles of provocative coaching, based on Frank Farrelly’s provocative therapy. In the Netherlands, Jaap Hollander and Jeffrey Wijnberg introduced these ideas and trained many provocative coaches, including ourselves!<\/p>\n Research shows that behavioral change only happens when you genuinely connect with the emotions of your client. We definitely make use of this fact!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.argus-management.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/humor.jpg” title_text=”humor” _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” custom_margin=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#eeeeee” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.argus-management.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/claudia-basisopleiding.jpg” title_text=”Claudia-basictraining” _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/deprovocatiefcoach.nl\/product\/basisopleiding-provocatief-coachen\/” button_text=” Register for the training” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_color=”#39A4B5″ button_border_color=”#39A4B5″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_text_color=”#39A4B5″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n In this training, you will learn how to get people moving by using humor and challenge as a professional. Often, situations are perceived as difficult or heavy, people have told their story multiple times, and they seem stuck in a pattern they can\u2019t break free from. The provocative coach confronts the client with their thought patterns and behavior. Humor is a powerful tool: it is disarming and brings relaxation and reduces stress.<\/p>\n \u00a0You will learn to use humor not just as an intervention, but as your baseline attitude. You will also learn not to take yourself too seriously and to embrace your own mistakes, helping the client to put their situation into perspective; the most unique things are actually universal!<\/p>\n \u00a0We start with the theory and background of provocative coaching, so you understand how it works. Then, you will get hands-on with the techniques and methods you\u2019ve learned. After all, you learn provocative coaching primarily through practice! You will discover that everything is \u2018material\u2019 that can be used provocatively. Through your reactions, the other person experiences a kind of \u2018brain error,\u2019 creating new energy, which often leads to fresh insights and solutions.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_text_color=”#39A4B5″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This foundational course in Provocative Coaching is suitable for anyone who wants to learn how to work with provocative coaching.

Claudia van den Boogaard<\/h2>\n
Even during her nearly 20-year career with the police, Claudia noticed how humor could be very relaxing. When she began working as an independent trainer and coach, she met Jaap and Jeffrey and decided to follow their course in provocative coaching. She now has 5 years of experience and many interventions at her disposal, having helped numerous clients get moving!<\/p>\nRaoul Rossou<\/h2>\n
