One-to-One Coaching

online or face to face coaching is a powerful process, which allows for individualized support tailored specifically to the needs and goals of the coachee, where  the coaching process to address your unique challenges and help them overcome them.

 

Group Coaching

Group coaching, according to the International Coaching Federation (ICF), refers to a coaching approach where a professional coach facilitates a coaching session for a group of individuals with similar goals or challenges. Unlike one-on-one coaching, where the focus is on an individual client, group coaching involves working with a group to achieve collective goals. In group coaching, the coach uses various coaching techniques to encourage participation, collaboration, and synergy among group members. The coach guides the group through a structured coaching process, allowing each individual to share their experiences, insights, and learn from each other’s perspectives. Group coaching can be conducted in person or virtually, and sessions typically last for a specific duration. ICF provides guidelines and ethical standards for coaches conducting group coaching to ensure professionalism and quality. Coaches who are ICF certified follow these standards to maintain the highest level of coaching competence and excellence.

Mentor Coaching

Mentor coaching is a process where experienced coaches provide guidance and support to less experienced coaches to help them improve their coaching skills and meet the criteria set by the ICF for professional credentialing. Mentor coaching in ICF involves several key aspects, including:

1. Observing coaching sessions: The mentor coach will observe the mentee coach conducting coaching sessions with their clients. They will provide feedback and suggestions on how to enhance their coaching skills, ensuring alignment with the ICF’s Core Competencies.

2. Feedback and reflection: The mentor coach will offer detailed feedback on the mentee’s coaching performance, highlighting their strengths and areas for improvement. This feedback is essential for the mentee coach to develop their coaching skills.

3. ICF credentials: By engaging in mentor coaching, coaches can fulfill the mentor coaching requirements set by the ICF for various levels of credentials, such as the ACC (Associate Certified Coach), PCC (Professional Certified Coach)

Overall, mentor coaching in ICF aims to support and enhance the professional development of coaches and ensure they adhere to the ethical and competency standards set by the organization.

 

SUPERvision

SUPERvision is a reflective process for coaches to discuss their practice with someone who is experienced in coaching to increase creativity and gain confidence in their practice by working together in a safe reflective place designed for inner discovery.

A SUPERvisor provides guidance and support to coaches who seek supervision to ensure that their practice is done effectively and efficiently. Supervisors also provide feedback, address any issues or concerns, and help to develop the skills and abilities of coaches. SUPERvision is not restrictive or prescriptive but rather a process for increasing reflection and creativity.

ICF defines SUPERvision as “Coaching Supervision is a collaborative learning practice to continually build the capacity of the coach through reflective dialogue for the benefit of both coaches and clients. Coaching Supervision focuses on the development of the coach’s capacity through offering a richer and broader opportunity for support and development. Coaching Supervision creates a safe environment for the coach to share their successes and failures in becoming masterful in the way they work with their clients.”

SUPERvision can be done in one-on-one, group, or ‘shadowing’ format.

Benefits of SUPERvision

  • SUPERvision is a safe place for coaches to reflect on their practice and identify blind spots.
  • Provides an opportunity for coaches to set personal development plans.
  • Provides an opportunity for the SUPERvisor to monitor coaches work and help them develop their skills or acquire new ones.
  • Ensures that coaching is applied ethically and effectively.

A recent publication in International Coaching Psychology Review, (Volume 12, No. 1, March 2017), identified key benefits for coaches who receive Coaching Supervision. These benefits include:

  • Increased self-awareness
  • Greater confidence
  • Increased objectivity
  • Heightened sense of belonging
  • Reduced feelings of isolation
  • Increased resourcefulness

Differences between SUPERvision, Coaching, and Mentor Coaching:

Supervision, mentoring, and coaching are all different approaches to personnel development, focusing on different aspects of growth and support.

Here are the key differences between these three approaches:

  1. Supervision: Supervision refers to the process of monitoring a coach’s work. It involves providing guidance and feedback to ensure that the coach is working ethically and effectively in addition to their personal and professional growth.
  2. Mentor Coaching: it involves an experienced certified coach (the mentor) guiding and supporting  a less experienced coach (the mentee) to understand and apply the technical part of coaching (competencies and code of ethics) and help them improve their coaching skills and meet the criteria set by the ICF for professional credentialing.
  3. Coaching: Coaching is a collaborative process where a coach helps an individual (the coachee) achieve specific goals, improve performance, and develop new skills. Unlike mentoring, or SUPERvision, coaching does not involve providing answers or advice, but rather focuses on empowering the coachee to find their own solutions through questioning, active listening, and exploration. The coach supports the coachee in building self-awareness, improving communication, and unlocking their potential.

In summary, Coach Mentoring focuses on the technical part of coaching, supervision focuses on coach performance in a holistic perspective, while coaching focuses on empowering individuals to achieve specific goals through self-discovery.
