My reasons were simple, executive coaching is<a href="http://selfleadership.com/blog/topic/leadership/executive-coaching-coming-of-age/"> coming of age </a>and yet the coaching industry is a &#8216;wild west&#8217; of different schools, methodologies, approaches and standards; through this confusion the ICF has emerged as a unifying force for defining professional coaching.<span id="more-1587"></span></p>
<p>I recently passed the ICF&#8217;s exam for Professional Certified Coach. Among requirements are; completion of coach-specific training, a minimum of 750 professional coaching hours, a written exam a recorded and live coaching session assessed by two examiners against 11 competencies.</p>
<p>The process was involved but rewarding because I have now had my coaching skills bench-marked and validated and have a clear path to ongoing <a href="http://selfleadership.com/blog/topic/leadership/how-to-achieve-mastery/">mastery</a>.</p>
<p>The majority of my Singapore and International <a href="http://www.selfleadership.com.sg/executive-coaching-singapore/">coaching clients </a>are corporate at the executive leve;l and until recently have cared more about referral or established brand than credentials. Things are changing and many of my larger client&#8217;s, especially the banks, have been setting up internal business processes that require coaches to be credentialed. To this end I am happy to comply with and uphold the highest level of professional behaviour.</p>
