Practical – Proven Approaches – Comprehensive
PLUS: Includes the hours and supervised coaching required for the ICF Team Coach Credential (and hours also count towards ICF Core Competency Training Hours for your ICF designation or ICF CCEs)
Team coaching is all the rage right now, for good reason. It is critical work that can make the difference in a team’s success. Meanwhile, some coaches claim that soon all coaching will be team coaching. By becoming a Certified Team Coach with the Center for Executive Coaching, you set yourself apart as a top-tier coach in one of the fastest growth areas of coaching. You also get a comprehensive solution that you can package and offer to clients, whether you are an internal or external coach. Of course, the program includes the training hours and (at your option) the supervised coaching required for your International Coaching Federation (ICF) Team Coaching Credential. (Training hours also count towards your ICF Core Competency Training for your ICF designation and/or ICF CCEs for ICF renewal).
Most importantly, you will enjoy the fulfillment that comes from making a massive difference and having huge impact with teams that are doing significant and meaningful work – and that need your help to perform better, overcome challenges, and break through to new levels of performance.
The Center for Executive Coaching Team Coaching Certification Program is the culmination of over two decades of client work, research, and testing and refining what works best when coaching teams to new levels of performance.
