<\/p>\nCoaching creates a time and safe place for people to think, talk it through, consider different possibilities and the implications, make their own choices, develop strategies, plan action steps, and own their progress and successes.<\/p>\n
Coaching models and processes are often acronyms or a series of key words to help remember the steps in the process.\u00a0 While coaching models and processes vary, there is a similarity to the flow of coaching conversations and coaching techniques.<\/p>\n
Learning a coaching model and process starts in coach training.\u00a0 Different Coaching certification<\/a> programs develop different acronyms and descriptions of their coaching process.\u00a0 Additionally, the specific tools vary and are copyrighted by the organization.\u00a0 Similarities come from shared ethics and identification of coaching-specific skills.<\/p>\n Coaching is a young profession wherein self-regulation is moving forward, and the International Coach Federation<\/a>, ICF, is at the forefront of this effort.\u00a0 \u00a0ICF provides a Code of Ethics<\/a> for coaches and defines 11 coaching competencies.\u00a0 Additionally, the ICF has standards for approving coach training and standards for becoming a member and\/or earning a credential.<\/p>\n Because recognition as a profession calls for a cohesive, collaborative effort, it makes sense for coach training to be built on existing ICF standards.\u00a0 This in turn supports the similarities of coaching models, processes, and techniques while at the same time honoring a variety of approaches.<\/p>\n Different coaches provide services in different ways, using different models, processes, or techniques.\u00a0 When the different ways are in keeping with coaching ethics, the variety enhances coaching as a whole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Coaching creates a time and safe place for people to think, talk it through, consider different possibilities and the implications, make their own choices, develop … <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7739,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,131,470,471,16,40],"tags":[590,50,86,49,205,507,591],"class_list":["post-7737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","category-coaching-program","category-coaching-resources","category-coaching-skills","category-coaching-stories","category-tools-and-techniques","tag-choices","tag-coaching","tag-coaching-certification","tag-code-of-ethics","tag-icf","tag-international-coach-federation","tag-standards","latest_post"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\n\t\t\n
