THE POWER OF BEING COACHABLE

JOIN THE GCC’s ICW 2025 CAMPAIGN!

This May 12th-18th is International Coaching Week, and we’re inviting YOU to be part of a global movement that inspires change, raises awareness, and showcases the extraordinary impact of your work around the world. Want to have some fun and create even MORE impact??

Inspire the World During International Coaching Week (Yes You Can!)

Imagine this: On a specific day, at a specific time, more than 200+ professional coaches flood the digital space with an article they have written to celebrate ICW 2025. But imagine if every article is carrying the same title, the same hashtags, and is linked to every other article through a shared association! Imagine how the combined effort would make for a provocative and interesting splash to raise the awareness of professional coaching around the world! Wanna play??

Through the Global Coaches Coalition, on May 12th, 2025, the first day of ICW, this is exactly what’s going to happen!

Participating coaches worldwide will unite for International Coaching Week, spreading the life-changing message about the need to be a coachable person. On May 12th, 2025, our goal is to have over 200+ coaches from around the globe, publish articles under the shared title, The Power of Being Coachable. Together, we’ll flood the digital space with stories, insights, and strategies to inspire individuals everywhere to embrace this transformative mindset. Every article will be the unique vision crafted by its unique writer, unified by our shared title, hashtags, and professional bond.

As a coach, you know the power of being open to learning, growth, and change. Now, it’s time to share that message with the world. It will support readers to consider their own coach-ability, and the benefits of coaching overall. This means a more educated world, more curious prospects, and more hungry minds and hearts working to be the best versions of themselves. Win-win-win!

Why, The Power of Being Coachable?

The coaching profession has spent decades focused on the features and benefits of coaching—“transformational results,” “goal achievement,” “overcoming challenges”—paired with endless discussions about client pain points. But here’s the truth we rarely talk about, none of that matters if the client isn’t coachable.

Think about it. Coaching tools, techniques, and frameworks are worthless without the willingness to listen, learn, and grow. Yet, instead of shining a light on the raw, transformative power of being coachable, we keep selling coaching in the same way we’ve been selling shoes since the 1800’s! It’s time to evolve.

We need to expand the conversation and help people reflect on one of the most critical questions: Am I coachable?

By ignoring this topic, we’re missing a huge opportunity to create awareness and curiosity about what it really takes to unlock personal growth. Being coachable is the foundation of transformation—it’s the key that opens the door. Imagine the possibilities if more people self-identified as coachable, or if they became intrigued by the idea of developing this quality in themselves. That’s why our upcoming awareness initiative, The Power of Being Coachable, is focused entirely on this untapped conversation.
