Week 34 of 36
Final Performance Evaluation
ICF competency anchor: All eight competencies at MCC depth
90 min
This week
The second and final formal performance evaluation. By now, the first evaluation result has been received and worked. Whatever the first showed, this final evaluation is the program's last formal calibration of mastery. As with the first, the work is to remain present in the actual coaching, knowing the evaluation is happening. Everything has prepared for this moment.
Contemplative practice of the week
The Final Performance Sit
Forty-five minutes immediately before the final evaluation. The same practice as Week 28 — establishing witness, stabilizing 500+, bestowal posture for the client, releasing the evaluation outcome. The practice is not different because it is the final evaluation. The practice is the same because it is the practice.
Learning objectives
- Conduct the second formal evaluation session.
- Submit the recording.
- Receive the final evaluation result.
- Hold the result, whatever it is, with master equanimity.
- Begin the integration of the program's full evaluation results.
Session architecture
- Hour 1 — Pre-evaluation grounding. Final preparations. Each student does the Pre-Performance Sit.
- Hour 2 — Evaluation wave 1. Half the cohort conducts their final evaluation session.
- Hour 3 — Evaluation wave 2. Remaining students conduct evaluation.
- Hour 4 — Cohort circle. The work is done. The cohort holds the moment together. Whatever results come, they will be received together at Week 36.
Reading
- No new reading. The work is the work.

Reflection prompt
What is my actual experience of conducting that session? Was I more present than in the first evaluation, less present, the same? What is the evidence? What am I aware of about my coaching now that I was not aware of at the start of Movement IV?
