The CoachMaster Network.

Developing coaches through technology.
No credit card required
When we see friends and colleagues struggling with problems most people wish to help. And coaching is a great tool to help solve problems. By learning to be a great coach we can help others to create real positive change in their lives. But it takes time, effort and intention to learn to the skills and self-knowledge that are necessary to help effectively. And learning coaching can be intimidating at first - there is a lot to learn and doing it all by yourself can be a lonely endeavour. This is why we developed the CoachMaster Network.

What is the CoachMaster Network?

The Network was created to expand the availability of good quality coaching throughout the world.  Coaching is growing rapidly as a profession but there is still a low public understanding of how coaching works and access to high quality coaching is still limited by cost and technological factors.

In the Network we give our members the chance to develop essential coaching skills and the opportunity to apply those skills in the service of others.

Will the coaching processes in the software work for everyone?

I would so like to say ‘yes’.  But the truth every client and every issue is different so there is no one process that is always going to work.   It is a bit like a GPS in a car.  It can point out what it believes is the best way to go but you as the driver have to make the decision whether to follow it.

Is the software secure?

  • Yes CoachMaster™ is hosted securely by Telehouse in East London. You can see their standards here.  http://www.telehouse.net/london-data-centres
  • During a CoachMaster™ session all data is instantly written to a database so If there was a server crash at the most only the last message would be lost.
  • All sessions are protected by full SSL encryption and we have privacy and security policies

What is different about this coaching system?

We are unique in that we use a software as part of our training process.  By learning to take our first steps in coaching using CoachMaster software we can support you in becoming effective faster.  We like to mix up the technology and the ‘magic’ part of coaching and encourage our students to use a range of methodologies to find out what works best for them.

Why are you offering the software and basic training for free?
