As part of activities to celebrate International Coaching Week (ICW), the Nigerian chapter of the International Coaching Federation (ICF) has urged all citizens, regardless of status, to embrace coaching towards fostering personal growth, lasting behavioural change and in-depth self-awareness.
The call was made at Nigeria’s ICW in Lagos with the theme, ‘Innovate, Elevate and Celebrate’ where coaches urged all Nigerians from all walks of life to embrace coaching to unlock their full potential and achieve personal and professional success.
According to the President, ICF Nigeria, Akanimo Ekong, coaching impacts lives, urging individuals to explore the opportunities in coaching.
He emphasised the transformative power of coaching, citing Bill Gates’ assertion that everyone could benefit from a coach.
Ekong pointed out that regardless of one’s role, such as being a CEO, corporate leader, or political figure, “there are often areas where they struggle, and coaching can be instrumental in facilitating transformation.”
