The GCG coach certifications are not just a ‘certification’. Certifications mostly provide you with more knowhow. GCG provides you with everything you need and all the support you need to coach with More Impact, More Time, and More Clients.

More Impact: At the end of the day, coaching clients look for one thing: measurable results. Our proven process has consistently delivered measurable results for leaders and organizations worldwide. In fact, 95% of leaders who have been coached through our process reported measurable growth as perceived by those around them. Our 360 Feedforward Coaching process integrates periodic surveys to measure the degree in which leaders have visibly improved in the eyes of their coworkers. This delivers the undeniable results that clients look for.

More Time: All certified Global Leadership Coaches get exclusive access to our innovative coaching platform (GCG Platform). The GCG Platform streamlines the entire 360 Feedforward Coaching process by eliminating nearly all manual processes for the coach AND the leader. This leaves coaches to focus on doing what they do best: Coaching.
