siliconindia | | APRIL 20214A few years back, if your organization had asked you to take life coaching after having promoted you to a leadership position, you would have taken aback. Neither was it unusual and trivial, back then, nor is it now. Life coaching is about guiding, inspiring someone and helping one create an actionable plan to achieve one's life goals. Can't help but fail to understand how that is ever `unnecessary'.Life coaching is well established in the United States, where people increasingly seek out coaches to help them attain personal or professional goals. It's less common in India, but that's beginning to change. Around 89% people in India are aware of life coaching and around 59% have partnered with a life coach at some time, with 97% being satisfied with the experience, revealed the 2017 ICF Global Consumer Awareness Study, which was also conducted by PwC Research. Today, a good chunk of the working masses are struggling to strike a meaningful balance between the various demands of their lives. Work-life is an old notion. Now, it's also about other additional aspects like our aspirations, our `personal me time' so on so forth. Life coaching helps in improving the performance in all areas of life. That made clear, it nothing like mentoring. It is Life Coaching- it needs certain skills and a professional certification from a recognized, registered body. Every practicing and professional life coach is one that is certified by a reputable agency.We here in this edition, handpicked some of the most recommended and sought after Life coaches in the business world.
