GOING PROFESSIONAL

When you get your ACMC credentials by being able to demonstrate competency level on the seven core skills, you are on your way to becoming a truly professional coach. But you are not there yet. You have the foundation. You can connect with your client via your intense and deep listening skills— you are beginning to listen for structure and you are beginning to be able to use what you are hearing to support your client. But there’s more.

You also are now able to question at primary and meta levels to enable your client to really explore his or her experience. With the primary questions, you now have the ability to facilitate precision and specificity with your client— something that puts you head-and-shoulders above 90% of all Coaches on Planet Earth. You have the Meta-Model of Language and you know how to use it to deepen the conversation. Further, you know how to move above the client’s experience by asking meta- questions that enable your client to turn inward to the inner game and win it there in her mind-set. That again puts you way ahead of most Coaches. But there’s more.
