Choosing the right coach

Just what do I need?

You might be thinking to yourself that there seem to be loads of coaches out there - 

"How the hell do I pick the right one?"

You're probably wondering how to choose the right coach.

Personal fit matters. If you don't connect with your coach, it's unlikely you'll get the best from the relationship.

But fit alone isn't enough.

You also want someone with the right combination of experience, professional training and an ongoing commitment to developing their own practice.

Aside from my hands-on blue chip leadership experience you can draw confidence from:

• Professional Certified Coach (PCC), International Coaching Federation.

• Postgraduate Diploma in Business & Personal Coaching - Chester University.

• Barefoot Coaching trained.

• Coaching Constellations - I & II.

• Strengthscope Accredited.

• Creating the Team Edge Accredited.

• Mental Health First Aider.

• Robust Professional Coaching Supervision.

• Commitment to Continued Professional Development (CPD).

• Fellow of the Chartered Management Accountants (FCMA)

Ultimately, though, the right coach is someone who helps you think more clearly, challenges you appropriately and creates a space where you can be completely honest.
