Integrity means I feel a sense of validity within what I'm doing and understanding of the shared purpose with the client. For the coaches, themselves, the integrity, is partly about their own inner confidence of how I feel about all time talking about what I'm able to offer, and how I'm doing it. And then the outer confidence is about how I'm actually doing it, sharing it and showing it as I coach my clients.
My coach training was excellent but it didn’t prepare me for what I needed to do to set up and run my own coaching business successfully. I want to share some of the things I’ve learnt in this 3-part blog:- 1) before training 2) surviving and prospering post training 3) the nitty gritty of setting up your own business.
This blog looks at some similarities I have seen between coaching and novel writing, as my experience in these two activities has grown over the last six years. It’s such a strange idea that I feel I must describe how it came to be, so that you can make sense of it.
If you recognize your strengths as a coach, if you know where you are at your best in a specific area/function, and If you’re aware of where your coaching produces substantially better results – it’s a strong platform, especially for an internal coach matching model.

Whilst there are plenty of opportunities for managers and leaders to coach colleagues in an organization, more are choosing to strike out and start their own career as a coach. They have had some basic workshops as part of the on-the-job training, and, typically without clear guidance as to when to appropriately use their coaching skills in various situations, they may have had a diverse range of results. Now that they have applied this thing called ‘coaching’ and it’s worked, some of them want to be a coach (and exit their current role).
My ultimate aim as a coach is to help my clients develop so that they become able to a) Address their issues by themselves, and b) Reflect on what they do by understanding themselves better.
What does a coach DO? Not the detailed, minute-by-minute activity that happens during a coaching session, but the big ‘what am I working for my client to achieve’ picture.
Five years ago I quit my respected corporate career. I made the bold decision to start an executive coaching company. I had a vision for how great coaching could help leaders be more successful, and companies realize better results.
My encounter into team coaching began with one of my early coachee who was a Vertical head of a Global engineering technology company. He felt that exchange of ideas among his subvertical heads were not adequate. He also saw silos and he wanted this to change. Recognising this gap, he encouraged me to accept the challenge of coaching his team.
Does the pain of writing outweigh the gains that you will receive from writing?
The following tips are a summary of my 11 years’ experience as a Coach, Coach Supervisor and Professional Coaches Trainer.
I chose the profession of coaching because I want to help others and am passionate about making a difference. I believe I bring experience, insights, and training to my work. I and my fellow coaches want to be the best for our clients and to do great work. Organizations and professionals who have worked with coaches can attest to the impact coaching has had on them.
Before we examine the way larger companies approach strategy we’ll look at the apparently not so well understood gig economy. They call themselves consultants, advisors, experts, mentors, coaches, trainers, financial consultants, psychologists, therapists, insurance advisers and many other things. I am one of them. A small
The results shared in this report aims to fill in key gaps on what it takes to be a coach, and what’s involved in having a sustainable career in coaching. Where useful, we’ve also added some key insights and frameworks for coaches to consider alongside their own practice.

For Maria and Yvonne, after working for a combined years of 20+ years and collectively over 350 clients around the world, it’s been a while since we’ve taken those training wheel off and in each of our ways moved to that curiosity stage of all the different components that makes coaching coaching. We wanted to share from our experiences some of the myths we hold that when we begin to explore in more detail, that there is more to consider than what meets the eye.
