Coach-to-coach peer coaching is a collaborative practice where coaches support each other’s growth by alternating roles as coach and client. It enhances skills, fosters self-awareness, builds community, and provides cost-effective professional development. Benefits include refining techniques, gaining fresh perspectives, and creating accountability. Peer coaching also offers opportunities for continuous learning, leadership development, and fulfilling credentialing requirements.
To succeed, coaches should establish clear agreements, maintain equality, provide constructive feedback, and embrace vulnerability. Despite challenges like time constraints or potential bias, peer coaching is a powerful tool for collaboration and personal growth, empowering coaches to expand their impact and effectiveness.
Whether you’re a seasoned coach or just starting out, embracing peer coaching can be a transformative step in your journey—helping you and your peers achieve greater impact and success.
