Some of you might still be thinking that you could still skip proper training and can just start coaching people based on your own natural abilities and supplemental information from such as article as the one you are reading now. Here are some cold facts about coaching:
Ø The fact that people ask you for advice all the time does not qualify to be a coach. Advising people are actually one of the most detrimental ways we tend to ruin other people’s lives.
Ø The fact that you are involved or serve in your local ministry, therapy, social services or other helping communities does give you the proper tools. These are great areas to conduct a certain type of counseling but they are uniquely different from coaching. It is important to note that those who serve in that capacity are able to transition well from their specific form of counseling to life coaching.
Ø Just because you consider yourself an intellectual machine full of fascinating and interesting facts that you may even think people need to start paying you for does not cut it either. Facts, expertise, and being well versed in a subject matter are not enough to change a life. Life changes are not easy accomplishments and the skills and expertise needed to take people from point A to point B are acquired through proper certification. The charisma and subject matter expertise and great public speaking skills are only supplemental information that at an appropriate time during a coaching session can help a client.
The list can go on but the whole concept and foundation of coaching is so drastically different than what most of the population thinks, that the only authentic and reasonable enough answer to believe you are qualified is if you believe it’s a calling on upon your life.
