Description

Coaching thrives on innovation, yet the next generation is often left on the outside looking in. According to the International Coaching Federation’s Global Coaching Study, Millennials make up just 10% of global coach practitioners, with Gen-Z representation even lower. But why should coaching remain out of reach for some when fresh perspectives could enrich the field?

Join 2025 ICF Foundation Scholarship recipient Amani Core for a hands-on, interactive workshop exploring the question: “How might we make coaching education more accessible to the next generation?” Drawing on open-source research, original survey and interview insights from Millennial and Gen Z coaches, and creative thinking exercises, you’ll leave with fresh perspectives and actionable strategies to help shape the future of the industry, ensuring the next generation isn’t just knocking on the door of coaching—they’re walking right in.
