What are the main disadvantages of business coach training?

After completing the business coach training course, you will be able to support and encourage people in their professional environment, whether they are employees, managers or companies. You will help them to recognize strengths and weaknesses and to develop or eliminate these through suitable measures. In most cases, you take a neutral outside perspective, which leads to solutions "out of the box".

The main disadvantages of business coach training are

  1. The business coach training is a professional development course and requires basic training with a coach certificate as well as several years of experience in coaching or consulting. The latter includes experience in working with people in everyday professional life or experience as a manager.
  2. At certificate level, the course content and admission requirements are generally not regulated and can be determined autonomously by the schools.
  3. It is recommended that you carry out your own coaching and training sessions at the latest in parallel to the training in order to gain initial experience in supporting people in their everyday professional lives in a structured process. It is recommended that you start preparing for the examination to become a company mentor with a federal certificate and attend supervision sessions in parallel with the training.
  4. Even after completing the business coach training, the learning does not stop: If you want to work independently as a business coach or in an advisory capacity, you should ideally complete the professional examination to become a business mentor with a federal diploma. Incidentally, only those who complete the entire training as a preparatory course for the professional examination, including the federal examination, can benefit from federal subsidies.

 

Many business coaches are employed by companies in various sectors or work on a self-employed basis for companies or organizations.
