“This is a very high value experience! Between the comprehensive documents, the clear recorded lessons, and the live sessions, I have now have a great understanding of how to deliver high value coaching for organizations and how to grow and succeed in my coaching business. This is an excellent program for learning and understanding what it takes to deliver professional coaching engagements, to provide coaching for organizations, and how to handle the related business requirements. The added bonus was getting to watch and listen to Ann in action in the recorded and live sessions—she modeled clarity, firm boundaries delivered in a gentle manner, and grace in her interactions, all of which provide a great role model for this work. Highly recommend! Bonus: A chance to meet other amazing coaches, and a high-value way to earn CEUs.”
