Everything he demonstrated was practical and useful for any of us attending who sought to begin with the Life Coach Approach'. Attendees who had been coaching for a few years told me they too found the workshop extremely helpful and original. I feel very positive.

"I came to the Institute for Life Coach Training with the advantage of having had Pat Williams as my Mentor coach. The 'Transitioning from Therapy in to Coaching' tape set, galvanized my conviction. Now I needed the best training to give me the confidence that my clients were getting me at my best. The course is a gift, created with such care, and delivers such excellent material that one wants to soak up like a thirsty plant. Preparation reading and exercises are clearly defined and ensure that the classes delivered by Pat and faculty really cut to the heart of the matter, and at the same time are fun.The relationship between us, the students,is very apparent when we call in before class, and talk as if we are friends in the room together. With the Institute behind me I shall be proud to offer my clients a Blue-chip coaching service!"
Caroline Minto, Scotland
"Thanks to the faculty of the Institute for Life Coach Training, my coaching career has taken off like a rocket. I was skeptical as to whether I could really make the transition from full-time psychologist to coach. I moved slowly at first, probably due to my fears about giving up the known vs. the unknown. I have now learned to think about myself and my gifts in a big way, much different than I had ever thought of myself before. I now have a popular e-zine, an interview with Working Woman magazine, an interview with National Public Radio, and my coaching clients are quickly growing. Managed care is not totally out of my picture yet, but imagine my excitement to write a letter of resignation to one of the big companies just this week. I don't need them anymore. What a wonderful transformation!!!"
