Description
There are hundreds if not thousands of assessments available for executive coaches to select from in their role as partner to their clients. It is outrageous to think that any one coach should be certified to utilize even twenty-five percent of all of the available instruments.
Clients are becoming increasingly savvy regarding various assessments, as they are becoming more accepting of executive coaching. This, to the point that many clients request that their coaches be certified in their preferred instrument, which may not be the choice of certifications for the coach. This places the coach in a difficult situation. The coach then needs to invest in quickly becoming certified in that instrument, or identify a colleague coach who is certified in their client’s preferred instrument. Otherwise, they may risk losing the client to someone who is certified in the selected tool.
The Association of Corporate Executive Coaches (ACEC) is a tremendous resource for fellow members; we have members who are certified in over 35 different global assessments.
I) This booklet allows members to examine various assessments, visit the publishers website, and identify which ACEC members are certified in at least one of the instruments produced
by the publisher. The member can*:
• contact the certified member for off-the-record intelligence
• partner with his/her colleague
• turn the work in part or in full over to his/her colleague, with or without a finder’s fee
• explore other arrangements
II) Assessments were selected based on the following*:
• Evidence of statistically reliable history/ data
• Widespread use of the instrument
• International availability
• Availability to Executive Coaches
• Ease of certification
• Appropriateness to the work of executive coaches
• A member of ACEC holds a current certification
• Reliable psychometrics
• Practicality of use
