Overview

If You’re Not Reaching Your Potential as a Coach, Neither are Your Clients

Video Play
Watch the Overview

If You See These Issues In Your Coaching Relationships, You’ve Come to the Right Place

  • You find out about major decisions your clients made after the fact.
  • You often lose coaching clients, causing financial instability and uncertainty.
  • You feel like you need to defend and prove your value, especially during tough economic times.
  • You’re frustrated that your coaching clients don't implement or follow through with agreed-upon actions that align with their expressed business goals/strategy.
  • You struggle to find the right words in tough conversations.
  • You can see the person you coach and their business not improving, and you can't crack the code to truly help them.

We believe mastering your influence as a coach shouldn’t feel impossible. Not to mention, if your clients deserve world-class coaching, so do you.

Coaching Skills Mastery Is a Program Designed for Coaches Who Aspire to Go From Good to World-Class at Their Craft.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Establish yourself as the authoritative guide in any situation, no matter who is present.
  • Understand how to respond skillfully to any client resistance that's holding a company back, and always move them in the direction they need to go.
  • Ask deeper and more meaningful questions that identify core problems and issues they aren’t able to identify themselves.
  • Perfectly adapt to any individual you’re coaching, in any moment, no matter the circumstances.
Benefits & Expected Outcomes

Our Promise to You

Watch the Benefits & Expected Outcomes

When you graduate from Coaching Skills Mastery, you’ll have all the skills, practice, and confidence you need to become the most influential coach your clients have ever encountered.

Empower-Coaches
Empower Those You Coach to Take Charge of Their Own Growth (and Stop Doing Too Much Heavy Lifting).

While some may claim to be coaches, true coaching involves shifting the paradigm. If you feel like you’re doing all the hard work, that's not coaching. True coaching is when you empower your client to do most of the thinking, and most of the work.

Prepare to redefine your approach, establish impactful coaching connections, and create an environment where the hard work is not outsourced to you. Instead, you're providing strategic guidance, challenging consultation, and holding them accountable to the plan.

Communicate-with-Ease
Communicate With Ease In Tough Situations and Earn More Trust.

An effective coach will naturally find themselves in more challenging conversations than an ineffective coach. It’s important to know how to handle them productively and with poise.

vYou’ll no longer feel comfortable avoiding giving difficult feedback or sweeping issues under the rug. Instead, you’ll embrace the role of tension as a valuable tool that propels those you coach toward their breakthrough moments.
Develop-Traits
Develop the Traits, Behaviors, and Characteristics to Become Truly Confident and Effective In Any Situation.

For many, coaching will feel like a calling more than a profession, but that doesn’t mean that it comes naturally. In fact, it will mean developing new traits and habits that take hours of practice to master. By following a framework developed by our master coaches, which is based on timeless principles of communication, you’ll develop those traits in a fraction of the time it would take to learn through trial and error.

Like-Minded-Coaches
Leave Behind the Solitude and Join Like-Minded Coaches that Challenge and Invest In One Another.

Success thrives in a community of continuous learning and development. Just as your clients are looking to you for support, connectivity, and guidance through active engagement in feedback and coaching, you too deserve to be part of a supportive network that pushes you to greatness. You shouldn’t be going it alone.

By joining the mastery community, you’ll continue to have access to peer accountability, in-depth discussions, and a feedback loop that helps you continue to sharpen your skills.

Is Coaching Skills Mastery Right for You?

Watch Is It Right For You
With so many courses, memberships, and programs available for business coaches today, it may be hard to determine exactly which one is right for you. At the core of our program lies the mastery of essential coaching communication skills, building your confidence to take charge of conversations and lead clients to transformation with your presence, process, and credibility.

This is also why, if you do not want to embrace a culture of effective role-plays, constructive feedback, and ongoing improvement, you should NOT join our coaching skills programs. Our program may be a good fit for you if you're facing the following challenges:

  • You’re not able to charge premium pricing for high-value coaching
  • You’re building your coaching business and iterating products in isolation with no credible feedback to help you move faster
  • You’re struggling to remain competitive in the vast marketplace of coaching and consulting services
  • You’re in a constant cycle of client churn, causing financial uncertainty both in your business and personally
  • You’re not offering coaching services now, but want to

Are we the right fit for each other?

We understand that our coaching style may not suit everyone, and we carefully select the clients we work with. The coaches that thrive in our program:

  • Genuinely aspire to greatness and are committed to putting in the necessary hard work to reap the program's benefits
  • Show up to every roleplay and exercise session prepared and ready to be challenged
  • Hold themselves accountable to doing the work
  • Want to be in a community of other successful coaches and business owners
  • Place high value in investing in themselves and their coaching business to remain competitive
  • Recognize that constructive feedback and practice are crucial for achieving excellence

Results & Success Stories

Traditional Marketing Agency Reinvents Itself as a Coaching Business

Schmidt Communications is a coaching and training business based in the Netherlands.

Video Play
Challenge

Challenge

Schmidt Communications was like a lot of other marketing agencies out there — competent and dedicated, but indistinguishable. As a traditional do-it-for-you agency, they took on clients and worked hard to deliver results. But the business model stacked the odds against them, making it hard to scale.

Solution

Solution

Founder Daan Schmidt saw the possibility of a new model: instead of doing everything for his clients, he would coach them to do it themselves. With IMPACT’s training, he’d have the expertise and the communication skills to market his team as coaches and trainers who could provide more value for more clients.

Result

Result

After his first session with IMPACT, Daan knew that this program was different. He could expect hands-on training and feedback as he developed his coaching skills. Now, instead of going into client meetings with reports and deliverables, he goes in with questions. He’s learned that the right question can unlock incredible opportunities — and coaches are what his clients really need to succeed.

Professional Consultant Finally Learns How To Become a Coach

Jonathan Christian had built a successful consulting business, but he came to understand that consulting could only take clients so far. In the work he had been doing, he’d been the one telling his clients what they needed to do. The effect was substantial, but Jonathan’s investment was immense.

Solution

Solution

Jonathan started to work with IMPACT to learn how to coach. Instead of the outside expert coming in with all the right ideas, he’d be the guide to prompt reflection, discussion, and course-correction. Rather than solving problems, he’d help businesses learn to solve their problems themselves.

Result

Result

Today, Jonathan offers coaching to his clients to complement the other services he provides. He’s learned to ask the right questions and to be more comfortable with silence. Old Jonathan would fill that silence with his own expertise. Now, he lets his clients puzzle and ponder, and emerge better for it. Jonathan uses IMPACT-created resources to help him with new clients so he can be the guide they truly need.

Manager Signs Up For a Training Program That Changes Her Life

As a manager, Megan Miller already knew the importance of communication. But with impending changes coming to the rank and file workers at Anderson Trucking Service, she wanted to step up her game to make sure the roll out went smoothly. She signed up for IMPACT’s Coaching Skills Mastery.

Solution

Solution

Megan had been to dozens of trainings before, and they all had the same format. Someone spoke, and everyone else listened and took notes. She immediately saw that IMPACT’s training was different. This was hands-on teaching, with role-plays, practice, and feedback. This was not learning to be filed away. This program was designed to actually change the way you communicate. The way you show up to meetings.

Result

Result

Megan puts it pretty candidly: “This training changed the trajectory of my career.” She left each session with real takeaways that she could put into practice right away. She’s now able to stay curious, ask great questions, and facilitate meetings better than she ever has in the past. On top of that, she had built close bonds with coaches all over the world, and regular meet-ups allowed them to catch up, practice and troubleshoot.
