Henley PCEC goes beyond the established coaching competencies and tools; it’s deeply rooted in evidence-based science and research yet acknowledges the mystery in human potential. Who we are is how we coach. Research has established that the most important factor in coaching success is the alliance between coach and coachee. Therefore, the program not only provides coaches with the mindset, approach and tools of an Executive Coach, but also gently helps you to uncover your essence; adding space, depth, awareness, presence, authenticity... and playfulness.

Frequently asked questions
A certified coach is an individual who has completed a formal coaching training and has obtained a certification from a recognised coaching organisation or institution (ICF, EMCC or AC). Coaching certification is typically awarded after individual has successfully completed training that covers coaching principles, methodologies, ethical standards, and practical skills. Certification programmes usually include a combination of theoretical knowledge, practical coaching experience, and assessments.
The coaching profession is not universally regulated, and there isn't a single governing body for coaching qualifications. However, certifications from well-known coaching associations or institutions, such as the ICF, are widely recognized in the coaching industry. When seeking a coach with a specific qualification, individuals often look for those who have completed accredited training programmes or possess certifications from reputable sources.
A "Level 1 coaching qualification" generally signifies the foundational or entry-level certification in a coaching programme. It covers basic coaching principles, communication skills, and the establishment of coaching relationships. Obtaining a Level 1 qualification typically involves completing a training programme offered by a recognized coaching organization, providing individuals with the fundamental knowledge and skills needed to begin their coaching practice. The specifics can vary between coaching bodies and programmes. For example, the initial tier within the International Coach Federation (ICF) is referred to as the ACC level.
The highest level of coaching certification is often referred to as the Master Certified Coach (MCC). This designation is commonly offered by professional coaching organizations such as the International Coach Federation (ICF), which is widely recognized in the coaching industry and worlds largest professional coaches organisation. At ICF, the MCC level signifies the highest level of proficiency, experience, and mastery in coaching.
Executive Coaching focuses on individual development, involving confidential one-on-one sessions to address personal or professional goals. In contrast, team coaching centers around improving the collective performance of a team, emphasizing shared goals, team dynamics, and open communication. While individual executive coaching encourages personal accountability and tailored interventions for personal or professional growth, team coaching involves facilitating discussions, group exercises, and interventions aimed at enhancing overall team collaboration, performance and development. The impact of individual coaching is on the individual, while team coaching's scope extends to the collective success and dynamics of the entire team. Both coaching approaches have distinct applications, catering to individual and team-level needs.
