Coaching has been embraced all around the world and is one of the fastest growing industries. Many people and businesses now choose to work with a coach. There are many areas (niche’s) of coaching available and areas to help your clients in. Whether you would like to do life coaching, business coaching, executive coaching, be a mindset coach, performance coach, or whichever other areas you want to help your clients get results.
Becoming a life coach is both financially and emotionally rewarding. Knowing that you are able to help other people to achieve their desired success and be rewarded for it.
Become a certified life coach.
Coaching is often described as helping somebody to get from where they are to where they want to be. However coaching is actually so much more than that. You also assist your client in becoming clear about their values, beliefs, attitudes, strengths, areas of improvement and so much more. Diving much deeper than simply working towards a goal or outcome. You will understand how each client sees the world from a different perspective and how to work with different types of people.
Many life coaching courses teach transactional coaching. Meaning, client has a problem and you help them solve it. To use a metaphor; there car tyre has a puncture and you coach them how to fix it. At Coaching with NLP, we believe in transformational coaching. Not only do you help them fix the tyre, but understand how they got it and what to do in the future to prevent it from happening again. If it does happen again, what they can do to remedy the situation for themselves. Essentially, assisting your client to grow and transform through the process of coaching.
Which is the best life coaching course?
Whilst coaching is still very much unregulated, it is important that your training provider is accredited and that you gain. Ensure that you will gain an internationally recognised life coaching accreditation.
For you to be best able to help your clients, you need to do the right life coach training. It is very important that you learn appropriate skills that you will need in your life coaching career. The coaching course should prepare you for the many diverse clients you will work with. It is important to understand your client and work within their model of the world. As a great coach you will be able to be flexible and in the moment with the client, adapting to their specific needs. Each client brings their own “stuff” and interpretations of what is happening to them.
Have you ever wondered why some people may like a particular food and others don’t? The difference lays in how we encode that flavor or food type in our brain. That also rings true for how we encode the world and our experiences. You see the world is not outside there with us living in it. The world is actually in us and how we encode it is how we react to it on the outside. We talk more about that during your life coach training.
The point is that as a coach, you need to be able to understand your client. Their model of the world. What do “THEY” mean when they say something? Know how to motivate them, which might be different from how someone else gets motivated. How to find their most important values and what their goals are? Not what somebody else thinks they should do or be. Those are only some of the skills that you will learn during your life coaching course.
A one shoe fits all approach simply does not work in coaching.
