The enVision View
Because of the recent awareness regarding the ROI of coaching and the expanded use of coaches by organizations, many individuals without appropriate competencies are pursuing the profession of leader/executive coaching. Since the coaching field is unregulated, organizations and individuals should be VERY careful when qualifying coaches for engagements.
Caveat emptor! Literally, anyone today can hang out a sign claim to be an executive coach. A quick weekend workshop, for a nominal fee, can lead to a claim of certification as a coach, which can be extended to include further certification with coaching assessment tools with limited or dubious value.
The model executive coach is a specialist with strong credentials and experience, is probably located nearby, and maintains a modest caseload to insure access, availability, and commitment to those he or she coaches. They will hold an advanced degree in the behavioral sciences and business experience, or, an advanced degree in business, business experience, and specialized, highly disciplined training in coaching (no weekend wonders, please).
