International-Level Professional Coach

After 9 month of education in a program of a Professional Certified Coach I’ve finally graduated. The path was full of self-reflections, realization and changes. The self-exploration which I as a coach promote in my clients, starts with the self. I’ve studied 8 competencies and 37 markers of these competencies, which International Coaching Federation (ICF) is considering a must for a professional coach.

As I’m one of the most goal oriented people I’ve ever met, a natural thing for me would be achieving the final result and setting the new goal. Yes, I would still do so. However, coaching taught me that the path is also important, not less than a goal. Looking into yourself, discovering one’s real wishes, goals and the bigger life purpose is not something that you can achieve and stop. The next question will be: “What’s next?” or “So what?” Coaching can help to answer these bigger, existential questions.

During the last 9 months I’ve studies more than 146 hours total, spent minimum 109 hours in the live session classes. I’ve also worked with 22 clients, in 3 languages (English, Russian, Czech). My clients geography is Portugal, Netherlands, Russia, Ukraine, Czechia, Latvia and UK. I’ve coached my clients for over than 100 hours. Worked mostly with individuals, but had a strategic session with a young European StartUp.

Initially I’ve finished the first step of the education – ACSTH program and didn’t stop at that, I’ve continued to study. Meanwhile I’ve also changed my surname, so don’t be alerted or surprised, I’ve taken my husband’s last name and now I’m officially Katia Tandon – such an unexpected rebranding, but that’s life…

I’m happy to share my personal goal for the next couple of months, planning to get certified as an Associate Certified Coach (ACC ICF), continue working with my current and new clients, to whom I can help on their path of self-exploration, making changes in their life, improving their work, personal life, relationship and overall the quality of life.

I’m grateful to my clients, who trust me, who come back to me and who is so brave to have said to themselves one day: “I want to invest in myself, therefore I need a coach to do that!”

If you are also thinking of changing your life by working working hard on yourself and can relate to the above – feel free to contact me for a free “chemistry” session, where we can discuss what are the goals you want to achieve and how can I as a professional international coach help you.
