Every Leader a Coach

Coaching4Today’sLeaders (C4TL) was founded by Dr. J. Val Hastings, MCC, over twenty years ago with the sole purpose of equipping leaders and organizations with coaching skills for impact, sustainability, and results. Val’s vision is “Every leader a Coach.”  Our goal is to provide coaches with mastery-level training that hones their skills and deepens their expertise in coaching.

Today, C4TL is a global training organization, with programs in North America, South America, Africa, Asia, and Europe, with courses translated into English, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean and Ukrainian. As of 2020, C4TL has graduated 8,756 coaches.

Graduates of our Professional Coach Training program have improved their leadership capacity and learned how to empower individuals, teams and groups.  In addition, many of our graduates have launched their own private coaching businesses.

“I absolutely loved my time during the ACC training program, run by facilitators Val Hastings and Anna Hart. Going into the course, I was unsure as to what to expect, however, I truly felt each live session was extremely valuable and informative. The course has allowed me to become a better manage to my team and also allowed me to grow professionally. I would recommend this course to anyone looking to become a better coach!”

“I discovered Coaching4Today’sLeaders while working as an internal HR executive, aiming to enhance coaching capabilities within our HR team and among our top talent. Our organization prioritized accelerating talent development for succession planning and overall growth, recognizing coaching as a crucial catalyst. From the beginning, Val proved to be a valuable partner, understanding our business and priorities to provide tailored services that helped us achieve our goals.

Having informally coached for several years, I participated in the certification program led by Val, alongside other colleagues. The program struck the perfect balance between independent work, virtual in-class interactions, real-life practice, and insightful feedback from Val. It was designed not only to impart extensive knowledge but also to foster lasting relationships among participants, which we continue to leverage today. Professionally, the program helped us cultivate a strong bench of internal coaches from HR and the business that challenged leaders across the entire organization to think differently.

Personally, the program strengthened my foundation as a coach and equipped me with valuable skills that I use today as an independent coach. It also evolved my leadership style to one that fosters a culture of trust, empowerment, and independent problem-solving within my coaching and consulting firm. This has resulted in a team dedicated to the firm’s and their personal development and success which has led to accelerated growth for our firm.

I always recommend Coaching4Today’sLeaders to anyone seeking coaching certification. They will guide you on your journey, challenge you, and have your best interests at heart.“
