COURSE OVERVIEW:

Coaching is a popular and rewarding career choice and an increasingly sought-after profession. The coaching industry has seen huge growth in the past decade and, for ten years running, it’s been the second fastest growing industry in the world (beaten only by IT). So if you’re looking to become self-employed or even start your own business, now is a better time than ever to learn how to become a coach.

Coaches work with individuals or businesses to help their clients improve their performance in a specific area. The focus is on helping the client to learn; not merely teaching them. A coach can specialise in anything from life to career coaching, or more niche areas such as leadership coaching.

There is a clear distinction between coaching, mentoring, managing and therapy. In brief, mentoring is about passing on specific skills and experiences so that the person being mentored can learn from this knowledge. Managing is about directing and ‘telling’ and therapy is about looking backwards and understanding the ‘why’ in order to be able to move forward.

Coaching enhances one's ability to learn, make changes, and achieve desired goals. It is a thought-provoking and creative process that enables people to make conscious decisions and empowers them to become leaders in their own lives. Great coaches don’t celebrate what their clients think they might do or hope to do at some point in the future. They celebrate what they’re doing right now.

Coaching is a tremendous discipline that has the potential to help people become high performers. It can be exactly what organisations are looking for in their leadership and high potentials. As great as the potential of coaching is, years of experience have shown the predominant traditional model of coaching being used does not work in the high-stakes, fast-paced, time-sensitive world of international business. Coaching, all too often, is used as a rescue model. When an organisation has an employee who is underperforming and termination is the likely next step, a coach is brought in to try to rescue the employee as a last step.

Ultimately, in the workplace, it is about increasing productivity and effectiveness. Whether it is directly, for example by developing influencing skills and strategic capability or indirectly through improved interpersonal relationships with employees or clients.

Coaching is a varied and rewarding career and can strengthen your personal and professional relationships, as well as your mental wellbeing. If you’re looking for the flexibility to work where and when you want and the potential to expand your network and set your own hourly rate, coaching is an ideal career choice.

In this course you’ll explore what coaching is, how you get started and what you need to become a successful coach to make a difference in others lives.

The first part of this course starts by discussing what coaching is and isn’t, also examines the distinctions between coaches, consultants and advisors.

Then explains how to have more impact by bringing a coach approach to your present organisation. Then explores the steps to transitioning and bridging your life into a coaching career.

The second part starts by discussing the business of coaching and what you need to run a successful coaching business. Then helps determine if you’re cut out to be a solopreneur (A solopreneur is a sole practitioner with an entrepreneurial spirit). Then discusses how to have a good framework within which your business (and you) can thrive. Then examines the nuts and bolts of what you have to consider for your coaching business. Finally, discusses the key points to being a successful internal or external coach.
