T H E R E S U L T SICF Global Coaching Study
10,000 professional coaches across the globe participated in the 2025 study —
here are some of the results that were reported by their clients.
In the 2023 ICF Global Coaching Study, 86% of companies reported a positive return on investment from coaching, with 70% of clients improving work performance, relationships, and communication skills.
Harvard’s Professional and Executive Development programs also highlight that coaching helps clients realize their potential, leading to a 70% increase in individual performance and a 50% increase in team performance.
Strong, clear, and effective communication is paramount to leading organizations. Leaders are not only responsible for explaining their vision, but also ensuring that the vision is understood — or better yet felt — throughout the organization.
Strengthen Communication Skills
The coaching ethos operates under the premise that clients are whole, competent, and capable of discovering solutions to the challenges they bring to each coaching engagement. Each insight, each “aha!” moment, builds on that belief within the client.
Build Confidence and Self-Reliance
Are you crystal clear on your vision and goals? A coach helps add specificity to the reality of where you are, where you want to be, and how to close that gap with a real plan of action. Then comes the accountability to ensure you make measurable progress.
Gain Clarity Around Goals
Not cutting meetings short to make the tee-ball game, or missing the game because the meeting ran late. With a clear understanding of your priorities, you’ll dedicate your time to what matters most. Everyone gets the same 24 hours - how will you spend yours?
