Making the Decision to Become a Group Coach
..
If you want to become a group coach, you can incorporate a lot of different techniques that coaches use and get amazing results. Some people think if they become a group coach, they won’t be able to provide as much value to their clients as they are able to with one-on-one coaching. But there are several different techniques that coaches use that actually work more powerfully in a group context.

Different Techniques that Coaches Use in a Group Setting
.
One example is to become a group coach who works with a group of people for an intense 45 day period, like the 45-Day challenge JTS Advisors offers. Whether participants are looking to achieve one large goal or several smaller goals, there are 3 principles or different techniques that coaches use:
Technique #1: Total Immersion
Even without ever being in the same room, you can become a group coach who creates a powerful environment through assignments, coaching calls, and accountability partners. The accountability partners are encouraged to talk every day for the entire 45 day period to encourage, support and provide accountability for each other’s goals. Immersion is one of the most powerful of all the different techniques that coaches use to effect change on an ongoing basis.
Technique #2: Spaced Repetition
This is one of the most overlooked of all the different techniques that coaches use. It’s not usually enough to do something once, although it is the first step toward mastery. Repetition is the only way to truly master a skill. In the environment of the 45-day challenge, this concept of daily repetition of result-producing activities is reinforced. When you become a group coach who takes advantage of spaced repetition, the momentum of the group can become very contagious.
Technique #3: Outstanding Role Models
Let’s face it, when you become a group coach you are going to have access to more resources. You can line up guest speakers who are looking to expand their databases. Many would be happy to provide a valuable specialty training call in exchange for getting in front of a new group of people. In fact, the larger the group, the easier it will be to find role models who are willing to provide training.
