Hi,

A lot of people have views that certifications do not help! And, that’s ok. I’m glad you asked this question.

If you’re interested in leadership certificates, it’s always good to have a certification as you follow a process which results in an evaluation. This is an important step to gauge if you have absorbed the knowledge and have the skills to apply the knowledge as well.

Reading books, and watching tons of videos on leadership is useful for growth. In one’s professional journey, it’s your practice that matters. Because…

Practice makes a man perfect!

The International Coaching Federation (ICF) and the European Mentoring Coaching Council (EMCC) certify the best in the industry. Leadership Coaches who demonstrate the ICF Core Competencies are trained in essential elements along with an increased knowledge of Emotional Intelligence, Conflict Management, Team-Building, Communication, and more.

So, follow this process:

1. Select a coaching program that is accredited with your chosen coaching body. (Always seek genuine coaching programs such as ICF and EMCC.)
2. Complete the program (there will be greater LIVE interactions, practice sessions)
3. Apply for a credential to the ICF or EMCC
4. Follow the procedure, give the evaluation test
