FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I belong to Groups on Linkedin that are pertinent to what I do, and I often turn to YouTube to figure out how to do something technical/computer-related. There is a certain amount of creativity and intuitiveness in Communication Coaching, making it more of a self-directed profession. Experience seems more beneficial to me than formal classroom time. Actually, the Internet has changed the format of the learning process, allowing us to learn from one another without being in a classroom. I may take some computer programming courses ... just because I wish to learn some computer languages; although, many templates are set up to make such courses unnecessary for website designers.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Communication Coaching allows me to utilize my varied experiences (teaching, writing, editing, insurance, legal, campaigning) and education (MA in Communication). I noticed that teachers often also coach and thought about what I might be able to coach, then came up with Communication. I love working with clients.
