​What is Mentor Coaching?


​From Patty Burgin: ​"If you've completed the seven hours of group mentor coaching in Module II, you've already experienced this dynamic personal learning experience designed to build your understanding and use of the ICF Core Competencies. And you've received written feedback from the Professional Certified Coaches (PCCs) on our faculty. In mentor coaching, we connect the dots between your skill development, your coaching presence and style, and the ICF Core Competencies. Mentor coaching is you being coached on your coaching.

A total of ten hours with a PCC or MCC is required for coaches who are ready to earn their international credential. So following the end of Module II, and as you accumulate your 100 hours with coachees, you will need three additional hours of individual mentor coaching. 

In addition, your mentor coaches will help you to:
  1. Create, evaluate, and select a good recording to send with your application, and to
  2. Get help in navigating the application process."


​Note:   Once you've completed ten hours of group and individual mentor coaching,  with a PCC or an MCC,  you never have to repeat mentor coaching (unless you want to) when you renew your credential (every three years) or when you "up-level. "

If you've already earned your credential and are ready for monthly challenge and support in a Cohort of veteran coaches, check out   Supervision Cohorts with Patty: The focus  of supervision is on the personal power, presence, and improvisational skills of veteran coaches.

The following SeattleCoach-Approved Mentor Coach Team works to offer us the highest and most current application of  the Core Competencies. Each one is a Professional Certified Coach (a "PCC"),
​and offers both individual and group mentor coaching.​
  • Each one has impressed me with their grit, enthusiasm, hard work, creativity, and integrity. Each one exemplifies The SeattleCoach Rules.
  • ​Each one is SeattleCoach Certified and represents SeattleCoach style and values.
  • Each one is credentialed by the ICF, having spent years pursuing coaching skills and presence.
  • Each one has received further specialized training as a Certified Mentor Coach (CMC).
  • Each one offers a special rate to SeattleCoaches.
  • Each one contributes regularly to the growth and encouragement of our SeattleCoach Tribe, helping to plan and lead our Summits, inspiring conversation in the Tribe's monthly happy hours, bringing their wisdom to our social media, helping us to identify pro-bono opportunities, and cooking up creative initiatives we haven't thought of yet.
  • They meet together quarterly to challenge and support each other.
  • They give SeattleCoach visibility on their own websites and social media pages, and
  • FYI, they don't owe me anything except to make us look good.
