I myself didn’t have a coach before (I hired one this spring to summer when I realized this.) So, I wonder if my passion for personal development was polished enough to the point that people would love to pay for when I decided to do coaching?

I admire and fully endorse your very accurate and insightful statement: "On the other hand, I also know some certified coaches who have little more than paper knowledge. In the end, what matters is the coaches skills and coach-client chemistry, not the certification badge." There are over 55 different coaching certifications, all of which can be bought, and are more for marketing than separating the good coaches out of the pack. Using a certification as a means to pick a coach will be a mistake. Using the two factors you listed will greatly enhance your success rate of picking the right coach. And results are what coaching is all about. Keep up the great work. Bill Akemi,

I'd add one more thing - RESULTS! I'm about results and I want someone who can take me to where I want to be. By the same token, I can coach my clients to results too. That's what I'm paying for :) Loved this post.
