Do you accept the challenge?
Be the first coach in space
LeaderArt's global partner, European Mentoring & Coaching Council (EMCC) announced a competition to become the first coach in space. One lucky coach will have the opportunity to conduct a coaching session during a 45-miunte flight orbiting the Earth in early 2020.
Just over a year ago, the entrepreneur Elon Musk put a car into space. Musk's space rival Richard Branson is an enthusiastic supporter of coaching and mentoring, attributing much of his success to the great coaches and mentors in his life. So, it is fitting that 2020 will see the car in space trumped by a coach is space.
To be eligibile for this competition, coaches must:
- be in good general health, with no conditions that might be affected by high gravity or weightlessness;
- have coached for at least five years; and
- be formally nominated by five clients and their supervisor
10 coaches will be selected for brief astronaut training - 1 will go throught to the actual flight.

The application form will require you to provide your coaching history, references, and a short essay of between 1.000 and 2.000 words on the following topic: Wow do you help your clients maintain a balance between keeping their feet on the ground and taking a strategic high-altitude perspective looking down os them selves, their work and their career?
Marks will be awarded for originality of concept, relationship to theory, ans gravity of presentation.
Wherever you are in your career as a coach, you will never get an opportunity to aim higher than this! Plan to see your coaching practice lift off like a rocket next year!
