The Definition of Coaching by ICLI RISING

Transformational coaching at ICLI RISING is a deep partnership with clients, fostering an environment that emphasizes both “being” and “doing”. Through a thought-provoking, creative, and inclusive journey, clients are not only inspired to realize their fullest personal and professional goals, but also to explore and embrace the essence of their being. The client, therefore, is celebrated in their entirety and recognized as the primary driver of the coaching experience.
