Coaching Innovation to Close May 1st

What is happening in the Coaching World these days? Things seem to come and go - often with some sort of mysterious circumstances.

As reported by Pat Gundy in COACHTALK-L automatic digest system:
"I don't know if there will be some official announcement from Coaching Innovation's owners on May 1, or if that's just when some part of it shuts down. "

Pat suggests that if you're want to request a refund from Coaching Innovation of your mycoachinghome.com membership fee, email David Goldsmith at dgoldsmith@thegoldsmithgroup.com with your request. He is one of the owners.

Susan Austin, the original face behind the organization, now has no connection to Coaching Innovation. Speaking of faces, one of the great ideas that they had was the "Faces of Coaching" Check it out before it disappears and see if you recognize your colleagues . . . then scroll over to see the name.

The Coaching Innovation is not to be mistaken with The Coaching Insider Newsletter, which also seems to be on hiatus these days.

The good news is that there are other newsletters and lists out there that help to keep us informed on coaching. Many have been mentioned here before in a previous post but I want to give a nod to the following neutral organizations:

• Peer Resources
• Association for Coaching Excellence (Julia and Donna are working hard on this but really need to get the web site out more in their correspondence AND promote an easier way to sign up for the newsletter.)
  
• COACHTALK-L automatic digest system
• The New Coach Connection
• EuroCoachList

Others you might wish to consider that have newsletters and information about their own services that I subscribe to are:

• Worldwide Association of Business Coaches
• International Association of Coaches VOICE (voicesub@certifiedcoach.org)
  
• International Coach Federation
• 247coaching
