NOTE: As of 2022 the Center for Executive Coaching is now accredited with the ICF as a Level 2 Coach Training Organization. The ICF has changed their language and replaced ACTP with Level 2. We were among the first group of coach training programs to receive this accreditation, after a rigorous review by the ICF.

Hilarious video about bad coaching

Please see below this blog entry a fantastic YouTube video about things that life coaches say. Believe it or not, all of those things could actually be approved as great coaching conversations by a leading coaching professional organization — and many of the larger coach training organizations teach students to say some of this stuff.

At the Center for Executive Coaching, we promise that we will never, ever, under any circumstances, teach you anything even close to related to what you will see on this video. In fact, one of the reasons we teach our members to talk about solutions instead of about coaching is because the word "coaching" has a bad reputation exactly due to the things you see on this video.

Enjoy!
