The Group Coaching HQ story

When Dom received over 30 emails asking for support and resources after delivering a group coaching demo session for the ICF NYC chapter, her educator brain kicked in:

* What's the best way to support coaches to build their group coaching skills?
* How could this learning experience be practical?
* What support and community would coaches need?

The questions were flowing! She knew she couldn't do it alone so she called Maribel. 5 minutes into the conversation, they agreed to co-create a 12-week course!
‍
They ran a successful pilot early in 2021 and gained so much energy from the experience that they kept offering the course... and never stopped!
