WHAT IS LEADERSHIP COACHING?
Coach Training informs you about what coaching is and helps you develop your coaching technique. It meets the requirements for LCC (Leadership Coaching Canada) Coach Certification. This training will be done in a style that is interactive and practical. When you are finished the training you will have a good foundation as a coach.
LCC Coach Certification can be realized through two routes: LCC Coach training or through other training organizations (Non-LCC training). The certification is the same regardless of the route. In the case of the LCC training it is designed to satisfy the certification requirements. Should you have training from other sources, then more information will be needed to ensure that LCC requirements are satisfied.

WHAT DOES A COACH DO?
Ecclesiastes states that, “Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he does not have another to help him.” (Eccl. 4:8,9)
International Coach Federation defines it this way, “Coaching is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.”
What To Look For
As with every relationship the chemistry between the coach and coachee is very important. Thus, certification does not mean that chemistry exists. Each Coachee needs to seek out a coach that will fit with them. Feel free to interview and check out certified coaches for the best match. Coaches will not be offended by this but expect it. It is our recommendation that an initial coaching relationship be established for a 3 month time block. We have found it takes several times for coach and coachee to come to “alignment” on what coaching is and who is responsible for what.
Please anticipate this expectation when you engage a coach.
Certification
LCC Coach Certification was created out of a desire to see coaches developed and verified with the aim of supporting and helping Canadian leaders in their pursuit of excellence. As an organization we are committed to developing churches and leaders all across Canada. In keeping with the spirit of LCC, this Certification process is simply a way to establish quality and facilitate excellence amongst the LCC partners. When a coach is certified it means they have:
- agreed to our ethical standards
- received verified training
- had their coaching evaluated
- have coached for a certain number of hours
- been personally coached
