What is a Coach?
The Coach followed a specific certifying training, in my case endorsed by the French government as RNCP level 2. He / She is supervised and adheres to a clear Code of Ethics.
Coaching is a short-term therapy. It aims to accompany with benevolence, confidentiality, the clients towards a clear objective. It is not an adviser, nor a consultant. The Coach accompanies, challenges, listens, puts the client at work so he or she finds her way and solution.
Some Coaches specialize in life coaching, executive coaching or team coaching., Obviously, for issues relating to both personal and professional aspects, a global coaching approach is adopted.
To know more, I recommend you to check the EMCC website (to which I am affiliated). You will find clarifications and Code of Ethics.
