the coaching profession will be the number one human services intervention that people and institutions seek relative to varied personal and professional challenges. As the profession continues to develop and evolve, the evidence, results, and effectiveness of coaching set a renewed precedent about the industry. Making coaching a viable human services intervention option.

(Based on conversations I participate in within ICF and EMCC communities) coaching is becoming more relational and emergent, less competency model-driven. Accreditation processes, especially at master levels, may evolve to reflect real practice more closely. Reflective practice and supervision are increasingly seen as essential ways to resource ourselves. I sense CPD is expanding into CPPD, where Personal development and inner work stand alongside professional learning as key to our growth.

the philosophy and practice of coaching—shifting from individual-centered growth to a broader, planet-centered purpose—will evolve toward co-creating a better ecosystem through collaboration between human and AI coaches.

professional coaching will help the world to find the way of shaping a new future, where the climate and the nature reaches balance along side with the behavior of humans around the globe, where most of us are aming for peace and a good life, for ourselves and our beolved ones – and for generations to come. The tools in coaching, and with new techniques, that makes it possible for more people to experience shift after shift within person after person… that might be a start of this journey.

as soon as a larger player in tech gives ai coaching bots sensors (to see and hear) we will see a dramatic shift in capabilities and adoption. A software/ hardware combination in your device camera linked to the “office suite” you use makes the feature standard and overcomes adoption decisions. Current limitations are due to trying ti force a text interface to do something that was never done by text.
