'The State of the Business Coaching Industry':

The professional business coaching industry has evolved dramatically over the last few years and bears little resemblance to its fuzzy predecessor. Coaching today is a demanding discipline and the busier-than-ever coach, trainer, consultant and manager needs smart, effective, validated tools and resources to ensure they are employing best-practice standards.

Business coaching, by nature, is in a continual process of development and draws from a wide range of behavioral sciences and professional disciplines. Professional coaching has little resemblance to the fuzzy 'model' promoted by the large online course marketers, many regional providers and commercially oriented "international coaching" associations.

Achieving measurable, sustainable outcomes isn't a matter of simplistic goal setting, personality profiling and cheerleading but requires the skilful use of validated, proven behavioral change methods and learning tools grounded in the behavioral sciences. The success of any business coaching program is dictated by the program's resources depth, scientific validity and measurability.

Recent studies have revealed the greatest challenge to any organization is to change people's behavior. Of recent years there has been a growing demand from coaches and their clients for an industry-proven coaching model based on scientifically validated methodologies. It is in response to this demand that the behavioral coaching model was developed.
