I am so delighted by the types of members we are attracting to the Center for Executive Coaching. Our program is a bit unique in that we don't accept just anyone who can pay. We attract seasoned, dynamic professionals who already have the talent to be outstanding coaches and trusted advisors, and want the skills to succeed.
Our members include:
– A former pro basketball player with the NBA who is getting into coaching executives about what it takes to be an elite performer.
– Former entrepreneurs who want to get into the coaching space. For instance, one of our members sold his software company for $30 million and is now coaching other aspiring entrepreneurs.- Former HR executives.
