Coaching as a Career
Over the past decade the human resource and business coaching sector has grown exponentially. Coaching has become an essential aspect of today’s business arena and the demand for qualified Coaches continues to rise. The HR Coach Network makes it possible for people to turn coaching into a career.
Broadly speaking there are four major groups of people that are drawn to the HR Coach Network:
Human Resource Consultants and Professionals
Human Resource as a profession and service has grown in importance in the past decade. Complexity in a changing economy has increased the skill and focus required by business in this arena. HR Consultants and Professionals are drawn to the HR Coach Network gain access to tools, methods and intellectual property as well as market leading research. Having an arsenal and support to work with, gives an edge to any HR Consultant or HR Coach.
Whether a seasoned HR Consultant or a HR Professional looking to start a new chapter in their career, the HR Coach Network provides a framework to build upon.
Business Coaches
Business coaching is particularly effective in Small to Medium Enterprise (SMEs) and has certainly become an accepted service. Traditional Business Coaches do, however, struggle to work with clients in relation to their human resource needs. Given that the typical SME has no devoted human resource function, Business Coaches have an opportunity to help in this area.
Business Coaches that have joined the HR Coach Network have been able to work with their client’s right across the business. Thus they tend to have longer lasting successful relationships.
Women in Business
The HR Coach Network has close to 100 members in Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. The proportion of male to female members is evenly split. This is a statistic that we are particularly proud of when one considers that in middle to executive management the ratio is heavily weighted to males.
The flexibility of a human resource and business coaching business has allowed mothers to return to work, business professionals to recognise their real worth and most importantly, for women to rediscover the enjoyment in their work.
Baby Boomers – Retirement Alternatives
As the Baby Boomer generation reaches the traditional age it will mark the largest exodus of skills ever recorded. Many Baby Boomers are reaching this stage and are seeking alternatives to retirement. Conventional employment can be rigid and not offer the flexibility that many are looking for.
The HR Coach Network provides a flexible vehicle for Baby Boomers to share their experience and knowledge with others. This wisdom and insight is invaluable to the business sector.
About the HR Coach Network
Despite both strategy and people being constant fixtures within organisations, we never cease to be amazed by the number of businesses that look at these in isolation. This missing link or connection represents both a huge risk and opportunity for organisations. We have established the HR Coach Network to bridge this gap by working with organisations to link their people and their strategy.
We are seeking individuals and existing organisations who share our vision to work with us. Our mandate is to create meaningful shift, sustainability and growth with a network of likeminded peers.
We understand that every person is different and is a sum of their experiences, goals and dreams.
At HR Coach we understand that moving into your own business is a personal and complex decision and as a result we have developed a thorough due diligence process. Our aim is to provide you with concise information that is relevant to your investigation. With this in mind we invite you to request our Business Feasibility Guide. The Business Feasibility Guide offers an insight into The HR Coach Network and how it may work for you.

Another important element in our process is completing a Skills and Experience Audit. We look to learn, understand and document your experience and skills across the Human Resource and Business spectrum. Our audit produces a report outlining your skills and experience that we share with. This process is strictly confidential and comes with no obligation.
