An initiative for a certificate programme in Leadership Coaching has been introduced by the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore, or IIMB. This nine-month programme aims to give working managers and leaders the tools they need to reach their full coaching potential and have a positive impact on their teams. Interested candidates have time till February 28 to apply for this long distance programme by IIM Bangalore. Aspirants have to visit the official website to apply — eep.iimb.ac.in/course/certificate-programme-in-leadership-coaching/. The programme fee is Rs 7,40,000. It is necessary for applicants to upload both their graduation certificate and CV through the online application portal. On March 5 and 12, 2024, the shortlisted applicants’ list will be announced. This programme, which will last for nine months, will combine live online classes with in-person meetings. It will start on April 1. Three modules make up the course curriculum. The first module covers the fundamentals of coaching and how to build both interpersonal and individual effectiveness. While the final module gives participants the opportunity to practically develop their “Coaching Muscle,” the second module explores the specifics of honing and developing coaching skills. Participants will receive IIMB EEP alumni status upon programme completion, and the coaching certification will enable them to become accredited ACC-level coaches by the ICF.
