Program Overview
Professional Coaching
In the past 40 years, the coaching process has proven to be one of the most impactful and resourceful methods to activate human potential and generate a new mentality, both on an individual and a collective level. In this field, which has only recently started to develop, the need of thoroughness in defining professional competencies, ethical principles and professional approaches is essential.
Compared to other fields such as consulting, training, mentoring and even counselling, coaching is a young discipline, and the learning process requires a methodological approach based on conceptual clarity and discipline.
This executive postgraduate program provides a solid foundation in professional and business coaching, designed for those aspiring to become professional coaches and for leaders looking to integrate coaching as a strategic tool for leadership and organisational growth.
Participants will gain essential coaching frameworks, methodologies, and ethical principles, all within an experiential and structured learning approach. By the end of the program, they will be prepared to conduct efficient coaching conversations that foster behavioural change and performance improvement.
