Just one act of courage can change your entire life

Awaken the leader within you with Metacognitive Programming.

Become a coach Grow as a leader Get Coached

A modern ontological approach

You become a coach or a leader by being, not by learning. You won’t transform by mirroring what others do or who they are. Trying to emulate leadership or coaching, at best, leaves one an actor and, at worst, an impostor.

Ontology, the science of being, is not concerned with the mastery of knowing. When applied to coaching and leadership, it focuses on being a coach or a leader rather than learning how to be one.

The Institute of Metacognitive Programming (IMCP) delivers ontological (concerned with being) rather than epistemological (concerned with knowing) professional training in coaching and leadership.

There is a difference between knowing and being. While knowing involves learning concepts, being is about experiencing leadership and coaching as one’s natural self-expression, especially in unplanned, stressful events that fundamentally alter a person’s way of being.

These events, or how one relates to others, oneself, and the world during stress, can awaken a new, stronger, wiser, and more resilient identity: the identity of the True Self, or The Leader. When an event awakens the identity of The Leader, it is called an Act of Courage, or simply, The Act.

What is Metaсognitive Programming™?

Metaсognitive Programming™ (MCP) is a unique, trademarked coaching methodology created by Misha Saidov that is proven to be effective for every life dilemma.

According to Metacognitive Programming™, our emotions drive our behaviour, not the other way around. To create meaningful, sustainable behaviour change, we must first alter our recurring thought patterns and emotional reactions. Most often, these patterns are subconscious and our clients are unaware of their “programming” until they work with an MCP Coach.

MCP is a tool that helps you identify your original programming and rewire yourself. It combines powerful tools from psychology, biology, neuroscience, psychotherapy, and philosophy, focusing on helping people accept what they cannot change and changing what they should not accept.

MCP combines evidence-based tools of psychological intervention, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, that lead to improvement in functioning and quality of life and are supported by numerous research studies.
