Benefits of Group Coaching

Individual coaching is known for bringing added value to every industry where it has been applied. Group coaching has the ability to not only expand that value it also builds community, strengthens teams, and supports the development of hardiness and resilience. Group coaching unites the individuals within the group with a shared focus or purpose. In addition, group coaching participants enjoy the benefit of added social support and additional expertise when paired with expert peers and much more.

Challenges of Group Coaching

One of the biggest myths about group coaching is that anyone can do it. Many coaches who are skilled at individual coaching assume there isn't much difference between individual coaching and group coaching other than having more people participate and that couldn't be further from the truth. Another mistake that is often made is the belief that since you might already work with groups in some capacity it will be a smooth transition into group coaching. Unfortunately for most folks, this is not the case.

Group coaching is not for the novice. Group coaching requires intermediate to advanced general coaching skills, the ability to set, communicate, and maintain effective boundaries, navigate personality differences, manage difficult behavior, all while keeping the group focused and on task. In addition, group coaching requires you to coach individuals without the sanctity of confidentiality as you can't guarantee the group participants will honor the level of confidentially you would provide your client within an individual session. Thus requiring you to monitor how deep you allow the group coaching participants to go within the group format.

These are just a few of the challenges group coaches face. There are many more nuances to consider and this is why we have developed a specialized Group Coach Certification uniquely designed to provide you the tools, techniques, and industry best practices to lead powerful and dynamic groups.
