A life coach is not supposed to give you hacks to suddenly transform your life.

If you are looking for how to become a Certified Life Coach in India, then you must understand the nuances of the industry before you dive in.  It is important to distinguish motivational speakers from life coaches.

There are coaches available dime a dozen on social media who claim to be “The Best Life Coach” or “The Best Business Coach” and can be seen “coaching” an audience of over a thousand people from the stage.

Why is NLP Interesting? Why is NLP interesting? Well, it just is. And when it is boring, you will know that you have enrolled in the wrong program. Lives change for the better in NLP classrooms. Of course, NLP is interesting, provided the program is facilitated by a seasoned NLP trainer. But even something as interesting as NLP can be delivered in such an ineffective manner that it becomes boring. Like a bad singer can ruin even a Grammy-winning song, a bad NLP trainer can put a classroom filled with eager participants to sleep. Why is NLP interesting – Interview extract with Vikram Dhar  Here is an interview extract with Vikram Dhar the best NLP trainer in India, which was captured during the conversation around Why is NLP interesting. “In my formative years of learning NLP, I was fortunate enough to learn this wonderful science from stalwarts of NLP – those who had co-founded and co-developed the field. Being so close to the fountainhead of learning, I gratefully imbibed the concepts and was able to tap into their full potential. I still ensure that I take time out from my busy schedule to attend couple of programs in a year from the co-developers of NLP, and NeuroSemantics. It was only later that I came to hear about across inept, fake and fraudulent trainers in India who did not even a rudimentary understanding of NLP concepts. They were therefore unable to leverage these concepts in their own lives. As a result, participants who attended programs delivered by these trainers became convinced that NLP was a sham science. That’s a loss not just to the participants but also to the whole of humankind. Had these participants attended an authentic program, they would have gained much, achieved their true potential and made the world a better place. If an NLP trainer does not have adequate grounding of the NLP concepts and have not understood the concept of ‘apply to self’ then they are not Real NLP trainers, and their programs will not that punch as their own incongruence will get exposed.” Being a practical science, authentic NLP programs are designed to be experiential. Which means that the experience of learning NLP in...

What is the purpose of Coaching Coaching is gaining momentum at an increasing pace. If you are someone who is planning to undergo coach training to become a successful ICF coach, and planning to attend ICF approved program in India, then read further to know more about what is coaching, what is the purpose of coaching, and how it is different from mentoring, counselling, consulting, and training. What is Coaching? According to International Coach Federation (ICF), coaching is the process of creative and thought-provoking partnership between client(s) and a coach to help the client(s) gain clarity and maximise their potential. Coaching is entirely a client driven process. It is very different from mentoring, counselling, consultancy, and training. Here’s how- Coaching Vs Mentoring One of the key differences between coaching and mentoring is that mentors bring and pass on to the client their expertise, knowledge and experience of how to get the work done, what it’s like to do the task, etc whereas coaching provides client an opportunity to think things out loud, and identify the way forward as appropriate, without any advise, suggestion, or input from external sources. Coaching Vs Counselling Counselling usually supports people in overcoming the emotional distresses that prevent them from functioning the way they would like to. Usually, counselling conversations involve spending a lot of time looking at the past to figure out how has the client got to where he or she is. In contrast, coaching is outcome driven in nature. It is about facilitating change by focussing on how to get from where you are at present to where you want to be in the future. Coaching vs Consulting Consultants work with people and organisations in a number of ways. Usually they identify and outline problem areas and inefficiencies for the clients, and then they give advice, develop solutions and strategies. They bring their knowledge and expertise in their domain of work and pass recommendations on to the clients. Coaching helps clients really access their own expertise without giving any added suggestions. Coaching vs Training Training is all about providing new skills and knowledge to people to help them at personal as well as professional fronts. Skilled trainers provide relevant and new information...
