The article considers one of the most important issues of the organization of the educational process according to the training program for professional coaches - the conditions for the formation of the key competence «coach position». The article presents the results of a study based on the ANO DPO «Institute of Consulting and Management», on the basis of which it is concluded that the formation of a coaching position is an important indicator of the possibility of successful activity of a professional coach and assumes an actual skill and the ability to remain neutral to the subjectivity and intersubjectivity of the client. The main limitations and problems associated with the formation of this competence are identified, the prerequisites for the emerging limitations are investigated. To facilitate the solution of the task of forming the «coach position» competence, it is proposed to use the « shadow coaching session - - an educational method developed by the author, implemented at the stage of consolidating and improving knowledge in the form of educational and training supervision. The essence of the proposed method is to eliminate the everyday and informational content of events in the dynamics of the classical training coaching session and hide all the client’s information stuffing from the coach in an explicit form, which allows the student to more productively ensure the transition to constructive professional attitudes, maintain neutrality and the ability to conduct the most effective sessions.
