A Coaching Journey - true life stories of coach training.
Coaching’ is the twenty first century’s buzzword – a phenomenon which is spreading so wide and so fast throughout the globe that some say it will take the second coming to knock it off its perch.
But who are these people called ‘coaches’? What special skills and aptitudes do they have that sets them apart from everyone else? What did they do before they became coaches? Why were they motivated to follow this path? How do you know if you’d make a good coach? How do you train? How difficult is it? What do you DO when you are a trained coach? Is the end result worth the effort? And - what sort of an organisation can provide the type of training that can truly change lives?
All these questions and more are addressed in this revealing and enlightening insight into practical coach training in the UK, featuring contributions from over 50 coaches and trainees
Uplifting tales of personal transformation, humorous anecdotes about the difficulties of returning to study, inspiring stories of support, motivation and love – all of these and more combine to make this a unique and compelling handbook for anyone considering whether or not to become a coach, and those who’d just like to know a whole lot more about it.
