Regulation
Business coaching is a self-regulated industry. WABC is committed to setting the highest global standards of ethics, integrity and professional responsibility for members by engaging in self-regulatory activities that build and maintain public trust.
Standards
Our standards and research are informed by our membership, by the clients we serve and by business coaching and other industry experts from around the world. This broad stakeholder involvement ensures that our standards and research are always cutting- edge and relevant.
Research
WABC is committed to engaging in or being affiliated with research that is based on rigorous, systematic and objective procedures to obtain robust knowledge relevant to business coaching practices, programs and standards. This commitment is supported by WABC's value of "a spirit of progress and relentless self-improvement," which is both strategic and evolutionary in nature and serves to support "renewal, innovation and high quality" within business coaching.
