The Art of Coaching

In today’s fast-changing world, AI is reshaping industries, widening skills gaps, and increasing the need for organisations to invest in their people. Coaching has never been more critical.

Research shows that strong coaching cultures drive higher engagement, productivity, and leadership effectiveness. According to the ICF, 86% of companies report a strong return on investment, with 70% seeing improved performance and communication. Coaching isn’t a luxury—it’s a proven driver of success.

Yet, the rise of unaccredited “coaches” threatens the profession, leading to poor outcomes and even harm. That’s why accreditation matters. Aligning with the EMCC ensures ethical practice, professional excellence, and real impact. Coaching is evolving. The best don’t just keep up—they set the standard.

This is your starting point to become accredited as a coach where you will focus on the fundamentals that will help you on your journey.
