Announcing a new resource for IAC coaches

• Are you a new IAC member working toward your IAC certification?
• Have you recently gained IAC certification and now you want to build a
  thriving practice?

If you answered, "Yes!" to either description, you have a new resource
available! Beginning on Monday, October 12, 2009, you will be able to attend
virtual monthly meetings by telephone, where you can:

• Connect with other IAC members who have similar needs and challenges
• Share your successes with other IAC members
• Trade client referrals
• Provide or hear coaching demonstrations
• Find coaching practice buddies
• Share practice-building tips and hear what works so you can build your own
  thriving practice
• Enjoy the warm support of a group of peers with a vested interest in nurturing
  your professional growth and taking steps to help you get your needs met
• Boost your confidence regarding certification and building a thriving practice
• Gain valuable, cutting-edge information in a convenient, supportive mastermind
  model that is structured for safety and success and where every participant's
  input is valued

Meeting details

• Quarterly events will include a speaker about one or more issues raised
  during the monthly events. Special attention will be given to confidence-boosting
  and practice-building issues because these are two of the most common concerns
  for new coaches.
• The IAC GroupSite Forum will be used to assist with communication. When
  you sign up to receive information about this group, IAC will notify you about
  meeting times and the bridgeline number.
• To be as fair as possible, meeting times will be rotated so that members
  in as many possible locations around the globe can attend at least once a
  quarter. For example:
  

  • The first monthly meeting will be Monday, October 12, 2009 at 10:00
    p.m. Eastern time.
  • The second monthly meeting will be Monday, November 16, 2009 at 2:00
    p.m. Eastern time.
