The coaching profession is plagued by the charlatan problem: “coaches” are selling multi level marketing schemes, promise clients health and wealth in no time for a huge fee or even exploit clients in cult-like organizations. As the Instagram coaching brigade is growing, shouts for a “professionalization” are getting louder.
ICF, EMCC, AC and many other local organizations have heard the cry and are offering coaches a path to demonstrate their level of professionalism and buyers of coaching security of hiring a “professional” coach. The three organizations are following different routes to fulfil the needs of coaches and buyers of coaching. Each approach has advantages and disadvantages for the profession and it is still unclear where the journey will end. In this Virtual Education, you will learn about the different approaches, the advantages and drawbacks of each approach and finally, what you can do as a coach and as a buyer of coaching to deal with the resulting complexity. You will be inspired to reflect on how you demonstrate the quality of your coaching and plan next steps for your future development as a “professional” coach and buyer of “professional” coaches.
