After some technical challenges
that created a long interruption in our ability to
communicate with our members, the IAC VOICE is back!
Hello, I’m Barbra Sundquist, IAC-CC. I’m honored to
be the new Editor of the IAC Voice.
With this issue, our IAC
President, Natalie Tucker Miller, IAC-CC brings you
up-to-date with some key happenings at the IAC. Chief among
those activities has been a complete overhaul of our
database and other computer systems.
Also included in this issue is a
list of all the coaches who have achieved their IAC-CC (IAC
Certified Coach) credential to date. We salute these
masterful coaches!
Starting in May, you can expect
to receive a monthly issue of the IAC VOICE in your email
box. My first priority as Editor is to answer all the
questions that might be on your mind, such as:
-
What does the IAC offer me?
-
How do I get certified by the
IAC?
-
What is the difference in the
credentialing from the various coaching associations?
-
I heard about new criteria for
getting certified by the IAC. When will this happen?
We know that getting the IAC-CC
credential is a high priority for many of our members. To
help you along the way, our Certifying Team, which
currently consists of:
-
Sali Taylor, IAC-CC
-
Nina East, IAC-CC
-
Karen Van Cleve, IAC-CC
-
Barbra Sundquist, IAC-CC
will write a monthly column
called “Certifier’s Corner”. The column will provide
practical guidance regarding mysterious issues such as “what
exactly are the Certifiers looking for in Step 2 tapes,
anyhow?” and “how can I relax and “coach naturally” when I
know I’m being tested?”
You can also look forward to
connecting with the international coaching community through
feature articles in our “Another Voice” column. And
Janice Hunter, a coach from Scotland, will contribute a
regular column called "Coaching Moments" which takes a
thoughtful, and sometimes lighthearted, look at how coaching
can be interwoven into our daily lives.
The IAC Voice is the main way we
communicate with our nearly 10,000 members. I am eager to
hear from you, particularly if you have a comment about
anything you’ve read in the VOICE (your Letter to the Editor
may be edited and printed in the Voice). And if you
know of a coach or coaching organization that is doing
something innovative to bring coaching to the world, please
let me know!
Drop me a line at
voice@certifiedcoach.org
You can expect to receive your
next issue of the VOICE in the first week of May.
Until then, enjoy!
Warmly,
Barbra Sundquist, IAC-CC
