​Coach Mentoring....

For purposes of credentialing, mentor coaching means an applicant being coached on their coaching skills rather than coaching on practice building, life balance, or other topics unrelated to the development of an applicant’s coaching skill.
I mentor coaches to ICF standards to help applicants become competent within the ICF core competencies, which are as follows:ICF Core Competencies
A. Foundation
1. Demonstrates Ethical Practice
2. Embodies a Coaching Mindset
B. Co-Creating the Relationship
3. Establishes and Maintains Agreements
4. Cultivates Trust and Safety
5. Maintains Presence
C. Communicating Effectively
6. Listens Actively
7. Evokes Awareness
D. Cultivating Learning and Growth
8. Facilitates Client Growth

​

The ICF is the biggest and most widely known, most highly respected of the coaching governing bodies. Credentialing is stringently assessed and so, when you achieve it, it means something!
ICF credentialing requirements are quite complex, so please do your due diligence via the ICF website.  Here is one example: The ICF requires ACC portfolio applicants to be coached for a minimum of 10 hours over a minimum of 3 months by a qualified Mentor Coach.

For purposes of credentialing, mentor coaching means an applicant being coached on their coaching skills rather than coaching on practice building, life balance, or other topics unrelated to the development of an applicant’s coaching skill.

I mentor coach to ICF standards (ACC, PCC, MCC) to help applicants for credentialing to become competent within the ICF core competencies.

 

The ICF is the biggest and most widely known, most highly respected of the coaching governing bodies. Accreditation is stringently assessed and so, when you achieve it, it means something!

ICF accreditation requirements are quite complex, so please do your due diligence via the ICF website.  Here is one example: The ICF requires ACC, PCC and MCC portfolio applicants to be coached for a minimum of 10 hours over a minimum of 3 months by a qualified Mentor Coach.

 

Typical Format of Mentor Coaching Calls

The format of each of my mentor coaching calls is:

  • A brief discussion with focus on one of the ICF Core Competencies
  • 25-30 minutes of coaching where I observe you coach. Usually, in advance of our session, you will provide me with a recording of a coaching session you recorded with a client.
  • Debrief and friendly, constructive feedback from me on your coaching.

You can read more about the ICF credentialing process and requirements here.


Service offering is for 10 mentoring sessions.

I had the pleasure to meet Zsofia this year and work with her as my mentor in coaching. Her dedication and commitment to mentoring are remarkable and valued.
She is a truly resourceful mentor, warm connecting and supportive. It was a delight to work with her and learn from her too. I appreciate very much how open she is to mentor, coach, guide and share her resources. Zsofia is also very open to learning from the whole experience to continue perfecting her skills. Being a coach myself I value her commitment to continuously grow.

Zsofia is an amazing coach and I was so fortunate to work with her. She really knows her stuff! She led me to insights I would never have realized on my own, and I'm so thankful to her for that. Sofia is thoughtful, warm, organized, and insightful as well as a pleasure to work with.

INITIALLY DIDN’T UNDERSTAND OR COMPREHEND THE BENEFITS OF COACHING. TO BE HONEST, IT SEEMED LIKE SOMETHING ‘OTHER PEOPLE DO’.  I’M SO GLAD THAT I TOOK A CHANCE AND DECIDED TO TRY COACHING. SOPHIE OPENED MY EYES TO ITS VERY REAL BENEFITS. SHE, UNLIKE ANYONE ELSE I’VE EVER MET WAS ABLE TO GIVE ME A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW FOR SEEING ALL THE DIFFERENT FACETS OF MY LIFE AND HOW THEY INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER: MY FAMILY, MY WORK, MY RELATIONSHIPS, MY STRUGGLES, MY ASPIRATIONS AND MY ACCOMPLISHMENTS.WITH HER HELP, I WAS ABLE TO RECOGNIZE WHERE I COULD IMPROVE MYSELF AND TO CELEBRATE MY ACHIEVEMENTS. I FOUND BALANCE IN MY WORK AND HOME LIFE AND LEARNT HOW TO BETTER MANAGE MY TIME.

I found coaching with Sofia to be really effective in many ways: we tackled personal and professional challenges and it increased my self-confidence; we used tools (social atom, creative writing of ideal day) to be where I wanted to be – happier with myself and my life.

Sofia s coaching style is encouraging & supportive. There is a positive flow & flexibility as well as structure. She supported me in feeling committed & motivated and asked good questions in regards to timeframe and accountability. The flow & flexibility worked well for me as it supported me in exploring - yet the structure was an important element as well. I learned that it is important to 'just keep at it' - coaching and being coached is an ongoing process - & practice Also her desire to be the best coach she can be was inspiring. As a result of coaching with Sofia, I was able to get a broader perspective - and clarity - of what my goals and steps were (are) and how to best action them...one step at a time... I would highly recommend Sofia to anyone seeking coaching.

Being coached by Sofia enabled me to focus on my long term, bigger goals and solve challenging situations. I’ve implemented new initiatives that supported better team effectiveness and put new structures in place for a sustainable and successful operation.
