Coaching Academy Trainers

  Meet The Coaching Academy Trainers

The most important thing to know about our trainers is that they are all successful coaches themselves, working with a wide variety of personal clients, organizations and businesses. That means they are great role models for your future coaching practice. You will have the confidence of knowing you are learning from people who can walk the walk as well as talk the talk!

Many of them were students with The Coaching Academy themselves once. Because of that our tutors are able to give a really clear example of how your career could develop as a coach after you have trained and qualified with us.

Among the trainers you will meet are:

 

Bev James - Managing Director

   
 

Bev JamesMD of The Coaching Academy
“As a professional coach I have experienced the profound effect coaching can have on businesses and individuals. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing someone accomplish personal or business goals, knowing that you played a part in their success.

Thousands of people have trained with us enabling them to ‘Make a living whilst making a difference’. With over ten years experience under our belt the Coaching Academy skillfully combines coach training with business building skills to help new coaches live their passion by earning a living doing what they love.

I look forward to meeting you.”

Bev is author of Do it! or Ditch it – turn ideas into action and make decisions that count (Virgin Books). Do sign up for the Daily Do Its and access FREE download resources which support the book, from www.BevJames.com

Sarah UrquhartThe Coaching Academy Senior Trainer
“I’ve been running my own coaching business since April 2000 and combine coaching with training in personal development, coaching and communication skills.

“Experience has taught me the same issues occur for people whatever industry they are working in: they need help clarifying objectives and improving communication and decision-making skills, and support when facing change. These are the areas I focus most closely on with my clients.”

Pam LidfordThe Coaching Academy Senior Trainer
“I became a coaching tutor because of my passion to assist others in exploring their personal power, my belief in the coaching process and my desire to be involved in sharing my knowledge about a subject I love.

“Coaching helps people transform their outlook on their life, raises their personal expectations, and supports them in achieving their goals, visions and dreams.”

  Mike Blissett
   
 

Ann SkidmoreThe Coaching Academy Trainer
Mike runs a busy coaching practice and is one of the trainers within the Coaching Academy. He’s also a Master Practitioner and Trainer of NLP, and Clinical & Sport Hypnotherapist. As a coach, he specializes in areas such as career and business development.

Mike says, ‘Since training with the Coaching Academy in early 2003 I can honestly say life has been full of surprises. One of the greatest things is to constantly find how even though we may all have similar challenges and goals, the questions we ask ourselves, solutions we come up with, and ideals we strive towards are different for everyone. Therefore coaching is always individual, exciting and keeps me on my toes at all times – and quite honestly I couldn’t think of a more rewarding vocation for anyone to have in life

  Ann Skidmore
   
 

Ann SkidmoreThe Coaching Academy Trainer
“I was on the very first Coaching Academy programme and thoroughly enjoyed the experience, meeting like-minded individuals who wanted to make a difference to people’s lives through coaching.

“I was always a coach without realising it! I worked as a Corporate Human Resources Manager in a financial services organisation and often people came to ask my advice. Rather than giving advice I used to ask them questions. I worked from the principle that if I gave them advice and it went wrong they would be back to see me! Anyway it seems like what I was doing was coaching without my even knowing it!”

Andrew JenkinsThe Coaching Academy Trainer
“In my professional capacity, I run my own successful corporate coaching business and I specialise in interpersonal communication. Values and beliefs is an important part of my coaching approach, where I help people to play to their strengths.

“I became a coaching tutor because it was a goal I set myself when I was training with The Coaching Academy. I just knew I wanted to train and encourage others to develop themselves in whatever coaching capacity they desire.”

  Dawn Harvey
   
 

Dawn HarveyThe Coaching Academy Trainer
“I became a coaching tutor because on my first day as a student with The Coaching Academy I was overwhelmed by the energy and passion for coaching and personal development present in both trainers and delegates. I knew right then that I wanted to be part of it.

“I can’t remember a time in my working life when coaching wasn’t some part of what I did. My corporate career was with a large retail bank and as a graduate I was fortunate to be introduced to coaching skills. The best thing about coaching is watching people grow and feeling that, in some small way, I helped to facilitate it.”
