USCMA Connect
Podcast Description
The University of Sydney established the world’s first Masters of coaching psychology degree in 2001. USCMA (University of Sydney Coaching and Mentoring Association) was set up a year later as the place for students of the degree to meet up, share ideas, organise guest speakers, establish peer supervision groups and conferences.
Almost 25 years later the degree has close to 1000 graduates and USCMA continues to be the place for students and graduates to congregate.
In our post pandemic world, USCMA has established this podcast as a way to connect its members together and back to the source.

Dr. Sebastian Fox is an executive and team coach, researcher, and director of brownfox consultancy, based in the UK. He holds a Doctorate in Coaching and Mentoring from Oxford Brookes University and serves as Head of Research at the Team Coaching Studio. His recent research challenges some of the field's most entrenched assumptions — including the idea that productive team coaching sessions are the ones where the original goals get met. He is currently writing a book on working emergently with teams, due to be published later this year. As a practitioner who works with leadership teams across sectors, Sebastian brings both rigorous academic thinking and on-the-ground coaching experience to the conversation. He is ICF accredited and holds a Diploma in Team Coaching Mastery.
In this episode we explore what it actually means for a team coaching session to go well, why the goals that teams arrive with may not be the goals that matter most, and what coaches can do to cultivate the conditions in which something genuinely useful can emerge.
