Coach in Training Stage

You are called to the coaching profession because you want to have a positive impact in the world.

You are enrolled in a Coach Training Program to learn a coaching model, improve your skills and determine how you might use coaching in your work.

Your focus is on learning how to coach. During your training, income is secondary to learning.

You might begin doing marketing events such as a book club, a free or low-cost workshop for people you know or a talk at a local networking group.

• You purchase equipment for client sessions and to record calls, if needed.
• You put in place beginning business systems to track hours, schedule clients and receive payments.
• You develop basic contracts, designed agreements and enrollment forms.
• You designate a clearly defined workspace where you participate in coach training and do client sessions.

You need a Mentor Coach to help you navigate your training and to experience excellent coaching.
