The challenge
Coaching lives with a few people instead of the whole organization.
- 01
Managers answer every question themselves, so people bring problems instead of proposals.
- 02
A handful of trained coaches carry the load, and good practice leaves when they do.
- 03
Employees hide gaps in their skills because admitting them feels like a career risk.

FAQ
Questions about Creating a Coaching Culture.

Ask a question →What is a coaching culture?
A coaching culture is one where leaders and peers routinely use questions, listening and feedback to help people think and take ownership. Coaching becomes part of how decisions and performance conversations happen, not a separate program.
How do you go about building a coaching culture?
We work on four components: a question-first framework for leaders, psychological safety, a coaching ecosystem built into your people processes, and peer-to-peer coaching networks.
Is this a coaching certification?
No. This coaching culture workshop is about organizational habits. Managers who want a credential can take our Certified Manager as a Coach program.
Who should be involved?
Senior leaders, managers and HR and L&D. A coaching culture is most credible when senior leaders model it first.
How is it delivered?
Online or in-person, led by ICF and IMC certified coaches. Duration is agreed upon with you.
