ICF Recommendations for Selecting a Coach
“Choosing a coach can be a daunting task,” said ICF President Diane Brennan, MBA, MCC. “There are thousands of people out there who call themselves a coach-how can you determine which is right for you (and is truly a coach)? The ICF is here to stop the confusion and make this process easier for those who want to benefit from a coaching relationship.”
