About Sandy McMullen

My Learning Journey

In 1989, after a once in a lifetime trip in the splendor of the firs t growth rain forest of Haida Gwai, I began a learning journey starting with NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming). NLP is known as the art and science of excellence, studying and modeling people who were masterful in their fields. It helped me to understand and respect how we each process differently and to begin to loosen the grip of my embedded points of view.

It became clear to me that there was often a gap between what Kegan calls “espoused theory” and “theory in action”. Learning different models of personality type and trait theory helped me to hold up a mirror in order to gain self knowledge of what is actual - not what I wished was so. Acknowledging what was real in the mirror did not prescribe limits on me rather it provided a window for change and growth.

I wanted to be able to utilize what I was learning in my own development in a meaningful way with others so I completed training with the Coaches Training Institute and then BCoach. I became a certified member of the International Consortium of Business Coaches and in 2006 I was a recipient of the International Coaching Federation’s Prism Award for Coaching Excellence in Organizational Coaching. I have continued to learn through my connection to the Leadership University community and more recently with the community connected to Authentic Leadership in Action, and through my colleagues at Context Management Consulting.

Over the past eighteen years I have built my recognition as a professional artist and I am proud of my participation as a founding partner in a gallery in Toronto’s Historic Distillery District. I have increasingly integrated coaching with gallery and studio visits, using art to support personal visioning and personal development. “Inner Landscapes II” which is a visual guide to the MBTI grew out of a desire to have a different kind of conversation about aspects of type that went beyond a mechanical understanding of how their preferences play out in our day to day interactions.
