Team coaching is quickly emerging as a crucial skill set for coaches. As organizations face complex challenges, they need coaches who can foster high-performing, adaptive, and aligned teams.
The ICF Team Coaching Competencies is a framework that sets the benchmark for professional team coaching, serving as the foundation for the ICF Advanced Certification in Team Coaching (ACTC).
This model builds on ICF’s Core Competencies but adds specific sub-competencies necessary for addressing the complexities of team coaching, providing a comprehensive framework for coaches to navigate the multifaceted nature of team coaching while integrating various coaching methods as needed.
