'The
State of the Business Coaching Industry':
|
|
|
The
professional business coaching industry has evolved
dramatically over the last few years and bears little
resemblance to its fuzzy predecessor. Coaching today
is a demanding discipline and the busier-than-ever
coach, trainer, consultant and manager needs smart,
effective, validated tools and resources to ensure
they are employing best-practice standards.
Business
coaching, by nature, is in a continual process of
development and draws from a wide range of behavioral
sciences and professional disciplines. Professional
coaching has little resemblance to the fuzzy 'model'
promoted by the large
online course marketers, many regional providers and
commercially oriented "international
coaching" associations.
Achieving measurable,
sustainable outcomes isn't a matter of simplistic goal
setting, personality profiling and cheerleading but
requires the skilful use of validated, proven
behavioral change methods and learning tools grounded
in the behavioral sciences. The success of any
business coaching program is dictated by the program's
resources depth, scientific validity and
measurability.
Dr Skiffington
(acknowledged as one of the world's leading
authorities in organizational coaching), for over a
decade, has been teaching, developing and delivering
proven behavioral-based coaching
practices that are replicable and
codifiable. These "world-best" standard
practices and business models have validity of
use because of their known, measurable,
sustainable success.
Recent
studies have revealed the greatest challenge
to any organization is to change people's behavior. Of
recent years there has been a growing demand from
coaches and their clients for an industry-proven
coaching model based on scientifically validated
methodologies. It is in response to this demand that
the behavioral coaching model was developed.

"The
Behavioral Coaching Institute is recognized
worldwide as the premier
coach training institution for
organizations"
-HR Monthly |
-For
over a decade, Dr Skiffington, as a
senior partner of the Behavioral Coaching
Institute, has worked with many of the world’s
leading organizations engaged in coaching to realize
outstanding business outcomes through successful
validated, initiatives. Our real solutions have
produced real results. And through our publications
(published and distributed in multiple languages by
McGraw-Hill International -Education), with the
added input from our Support Members worldwide, we
have documented many of these outstanding success
stories.
By working with
hundreds of American, UK , Australian and
Asian organizations, Dr Skiffington understands the
unique organizational / business coaching challenges
and support requirements faced by our corporate,
government and private clients. Equally, as one the
world's leading researchers and developers of
coaching technology and after training and
certifying hundreds of coaches around the world, Dr
Skiffington (as a long-term practitioner herself)
intimately understands the personal and technical
needs and ongoing support necessary for coaches to
achieve continued coaching success.
Today, the behavioral
coaching model, pioneered over the last decade by
Dr. Skiffington, integrates the most advanced
research on adult development and human systems
theory into an elegantly simple and highly
effective validated coaching model of practice.
This industry-proven process is taught to Dr
Skiffington's select clients so they
can effectively apply it in their workplace to
achieve sustainable, measurable, significant
results.

The
Institute's Organizational
Support Program:
.-
Let's face it. Running your own coaching
programs/business can sometimes be unnerving. It's
comforting to have the support of someone who has
worked with others who have experienced the same
problems, concerns and issues…and the same
opportunities as yours.
|
|
|
|
Our
Program Support Members are in business for
themselves -but not by themselves. As such,
our Members are able to directly tap into Dr
Skiffington's extensive library of knowledge
and experience as one of the world's leading
creators, educators and practitioners of
organizational / business coaching.
Our select Program Members (large and
small) benefit from a personalized approach
and customizable options. Our Project
Team headed by Perry Zeus works with you
to design a support package that fits your
specific needs. As a follow-on, Dr Skiffington personally
delivers the Behavioral Coaching
Institute's courses and on-site project
support. |

shown one-to-one by Suzanne how to apply
the best practices to our situation and address
the issues at hand.

also provided an invaluable, individualized blueprint
for moving
to the next level and beyond." John
