Welcome to New Coach Connection!

This community is comprised of new and experienced coaches who are seeking ways to collaborate, connect and create awesome experiences in the coaching profession.

This community began in June of 2000 as a result of a 5-day workshop on "Coaching as your next career". Many of the participants were very interested in continuing the connection. Quite a few of these new coaches would send inspiration in the way of emails and/or resource links. In July of 2001, we moved over to a Yahoo list-serve where we grew from 10 coaches to over 200 coaches in the past four years. When we reached 200 members, we were more then just a list-serve and have affectionately grown to become a very supportive community.

Our membership now stands at 880 (as of April4, 2008) and our goal is to grow to 1,000 by the end of the year. If you are a new or experienced coach who would like to be a part of a growing and supportive community, please Join Now!

This community is a group of many different coaches. We are a safe place to belong regardless of your race, religious preference, economic status or which coaching school you have attended - or not. Our coaches are life coaches, executive coaches, business coaches, financial coaches, and even clown coaches! If you are a coach, you belong here.

Many different topics are discussed every day. Coaching techniques, approaches and results are discussed by coaches with every level of experience. We also discuss being self-employed business owners. Discussions about marketing and networking are on-going. We even have a "Free Friday" to allow coaches to shamelessly market to our safe community.

You are welcome to reply to any thread of conversation at any time. Daily topics are suggested (see below), and other topics come up as members post. For more detailed information on each topic, check out our community events page.

"Monday Madness" (life balance issues)
"Ask Away Tuesdays" (skill building, ask anything)
"Reach Out Wednesdays" (business and community and network building)
"Techy Thursdays" (Technical and administrative issues, questions and solutions )
"Free Fridays” (shamelessly market your services and products to our community, courage building, )

While many of us are visual and love the concept of our list-serve, we also have a virtual community phone call every month.

Currently our featured monthly calls are: Project Spotlight and New Coach Connection Monthly Guest Call. For more information check out our Events Page.

What are the Rules? We have one Rule: Keep this a safe environment.

No question is dumb, no answers are wrong!

To help with structure, we do have some common courtesies that all members agree to observe. http://www.newcoachconnection.com/rules.html

What is the Cost to join? We are solely supported through donations and advertisement. The only requirements of you are your participation in conversations on our discussion board to topics that are relevant for you and to join us as regularly as you can on our monthly New Coach Connection Calls.
