How do I train to become a coach? One coach’s journey

More coachees are asking me each week how to become an International Coaching Federation (ICF) certified coach and how I became a coach, specifically the decisions before me and the training itself. (I’m delighted they ask, because coaching’s a truly delightful field.) I’ve found a fantastic home in this new industry, now coaching full-time for an audience I adore and relate well to. (Most of my clients are foreign-born leaders or managers on their way to the top.) I’m training coaches and  corporate leaders on active listening, because they realize they must listen well to get places. My training’s broadened what felt possible. Reading from my article on Medium, in this week’s podcast, I’m sharing how I trained to become a coach, letting the most popular questions I hear guide us.Reach out to me, D G McCullough, for insights on my group coaching and training packages. I’m for hire as a corporate trainer with active listening and public speaking as popular topics. You can find my LinkedIn profile here and my website here.
