Are you an Executive or Leadership Coach seeking group mentor coaching hours for your ACC or PCC credential with the International Coaching Federation (ICF)?

 

Group mentor coaching is about you deepening your understanding and application of the ICF Core Competencies. This happens in a collaborative and supportive environment, where you can observe, share, learn and receive feedback from your mentor and other coaches.

During group sessions we will explore each of the competencies in detail through discussion, practice exercises, examples, and short demonstrations.

There are a limited number of places in each group, with a maximum of 8 coaches. 

You can email me at coaching@julielines.com.au to express interest in joining a virtual mentor coaching group, or you can book a free exploratory meeting with me using this link.

The full cost of the 7-hour Virtual Group Mentor Coaching Program is $650+gstAfter payment is made, I will send you an Intake Form and Mentor Coaching Agreement to sign and return to me.

A 50% cancellation fee will apply for any cancellations within 7 days of the group program start date. The full fee will apply to cancellations within 48 hours of the start date.

“The conversation about the competencies were great and triggered lots of new insights. But the most valuable thing was the opportunity to practice coaching (and observe others coaching) – it’s reconnected me with my passion for coaching and given me confidence.”

“The mentoring program gives coaches the opportunity to get present to the core competencies for coaching and get feedback on our skills with peers, something we don’t often do as we are always working directly with clients. Julie creates a safe environment, bringing together coaches that work from different perspectives, so we can all share and learn from each other. I highly recommend this if you are looking to grow as a coach.”

ICF Requirements

For credentialing requirements, the ICF allows up to 7 or your 10 hours of mentor coaching be undertaken in a group.

For ICF purposes, all sessions must be attended LIVE – it is not acceptable to listen to a recording later. Upon completion, your certificate will reflect the number of hours you attended.

If you are going for an –

  • PCC credential you need a mentor coach who currently holds an ICF credential of PCC or MCC.

About the Mentor

I work as an Executive and Leadership Coach with leaders in Australian and global organisations and I am a member of many large coaching panels, working with clients at all levels and from a range of backgrounds. I am involved in the delivery of coach training programs. This experience has developed and deepened my application of the International Coaching Federation (ICF) Core Competencies. I have also completed the ICF PCC Marker Training, which is the training ICF Assessor’s are required to complete.  I am a Past-President of the ICF’s South Australia Branch and have held other roles on the SA Leadership Team, providing me with a thorough knowledge of ICF credentialing requirements and procedures. I have been an ICF member since 2012 and a credentialed member since 2014. You will find me listed in the ICF Mentor Coach Registry – a prominent database of international mentor coaches. To be included in this registry, I was required to hold my original credential for 3 years and to follow the ICF Best Practice for Mentor Coaches and deliver high quality mentor coaching services on an ongoing basis.

1:1 Mentor Coaching:

I no longer offer one-to-one mentor coaching as a service. If you are looking for one-to-one mentor coaching, the ICF Mentor Coach Registry is the best place to start your search. If you are in Adelaide or happy to work virtually with a Mentor Coach, I can also recommend ICF-registered mentor coaches in South Australia.

What coaches who have completed the program say:

“The conversation about the competencies were great and triggered lots of new insights. But the most valuable thing was the opportunity to practice coaching (and observe others coaching) – it’s reconnected me with my passion for coaching and given me confidence.”


“The 10 minute coaching practice sessions whether as an observer, coach or client was really valuable.  The sharing of feedback after each of these practice sessions added enormous value.  Julie’s ability to create a genuinely safe place to practice underpinned a great learning environment.”


“Julie is a great coach who can always bring new insights to a discussion and provides genuine support to participants with love and passion.”


“Guarantee you would get much more than just the 7 hours completion!”


“The mentoring program gives coaches the opportunity to get present to the core competencies for coaching and get feedback on our skills with peers, something we don’t often do as we are always working directly with clients. Julie creates a safe environment, bringing together coaches that work from different perspectives, so we can all share and learn from each other. I highly recommend this if you are looking to grow as a coach.”


“Thoughtful, insightful, helpful, supportive, articulate, safe, smart investment, and fun.”


“Transformational, eye opening, affirming, welcoming, inclusive, supportive.”


“The program has increased my coaching knowledge and skills… My primary goal engaging in the program was around an ICF accreditation, but I can also already see how I have adopted what I have learnt through the program in my coaching. Also, I really enjoyed the program and the group experience.”


“Inspiring, up-lifting, educational.”


“Julie is extremely knowledgeable and allows a safe space for participants to test and try new techniques. The feedback I received is invaluable for my coaching journey.”
