Module 1
Excellence and Authenticity
Coaching is widely embraced by business for its success in accelerating performance and development. The corporate coaching market continues to grow, with organisations seeking coaches to help valued individuals raise self-awareness, enhance relationships and impact, develop leadership capability, re-shape culture, overcome blocks to performance and build resilience.
Enabling clients to meet these challenges, enjoy their careers and achieve work-life balance calls on corporate coaches to excel in a wide range of skills. Coaches need to be credible, ethical, able to manage the process from first contact to final evaluation, and of course add value through the coaching itself.
Would you like to build your capacity as a corporate coach? Have you started coaching in the corporate world, but feel you could be more effective? Are you an established corporate coach looking to take your practice to the next level?
Designed for coaches who work, or wish to work, in the corporate coaching market, this module will enable you to meet the demands and reap the rewards of this exciting work, through exploring the structures and processes that drive excellence in delivery, as well as your skills and authenticity in the critical moments of coaching.
Module 2
Enabling Integrated Change
Corporate coaching is often focused on achieving tangible outcomes for clients and their organisations – measurable shifts in performance, skills, behaviour, relationships and employee engagement or culture. When seen as a business investment in valued people, a focus on the external results of coaching is no surprise. However, achieving these external results frequently requires shifts in the client’s inner world of thoughts, feelings, beliefs and capacity for change.
To be fully effective, corporate coaches need the skills, methods, confidence and judgement to work in both the inner and outer worlds, potentially overcoming client resistance such as seeking quick solutions, scepticism about value, or discomfort with talking about their inner world – anything that might be termed ‘frivolous’ or ‘deep’.
Enabling Integrated Change draws on the psychology and neuroscience of mindfulness, emotional intelligence, change and adult development. It is designed for coaches who work, or wish to work, in corporate coaching, and all coaches who wish to enhance their skills to help clients achieve sustainable change.
This module will equip you to work more confidently, credibly and effectively with clients on the aspects of their inner world that are blocking change in their outer world development, behaviours, performance and impact.
Module 3
Deploying Diagnostic Tools
Diagnostic tools in the form of personality profiles and 360° feedback are in widespread use in the corporate sector, and can be a powerful element of any coach’s toolbox. Businesses value these tools for the personal insight gained by individual coaching clients, the collective insight gained when results are aggregated, the creation of a common language to talk about how people work and, in the case of 360° feedback, as an impact measure for coaching and development programmes.
Personality profiles provide a framework to describe our preferences, traits and motivations. Having a lens and a language to recognise personal needs and respond to others’ needs through adapting behaviours can help improve communication, relationships, and influence.
360° feedback provides a picture of actual behaviours and impact on colleagues. Through a combination of numerical ratings and written comments, reports may highlight important gaps between what someone thinks they do and what others experience, opening blind spots and catalysing motivation for change, or revealing hidden strengths and how they could be leveraged.
Many licensed diagnostic tools require coaches to complete a practitioner accreditation. However, personal experience of diagnostic tools, and knowledge of core principles and good practices for their use in coaching, are an asset to any coach.
This module explores personality profiling and 360° feedback in coaching, and includes the opportunity to receive your own personality profile and practice interpreting a 360° feedback report.

What Our Students Say
"The Accredited Certificate in Corporate Coaching is a well-structured and professionally delivered course. It has everything you would expect from Animas; from best practice to well-founded theory supported by real-life practical examples and associated activities including open discussions, coaching and supervision.
I have trained with Animas before, but I still researched a number of alternative corporate and executive courses prior to signing up. Many are expensive Diplomas – all accredited, with some being short (40 hours) and others long (600 hours).
Whilst sometimes no bad thing, I did not want to go back to basics with coaching and re-learn some of what I already knew. I wanted a course that built on my existing knowledge and experience whilst offering value for money. In reality, I learned much more than expected and, as always with Animas, I met some great people and made connections along the way.
So, if you want to equip yourself with the knowledge and techniques that allow you to practice effectively with first line managers and above for a modest level of investment, then this course is most definitely for you."
Michael Banks,
Personal & Executive Coach
"This course came along at a perfect time for me. Although I have been happily working as a life coach for the past couple of years, I had avoided reaching out to the many contacts I have in the corporate world I worked in for almost 30 years. Maybe that imposter in my head had been holding me back.
This course has firmly put the imposter back in his box.
I can't stress how much I looked forward to my Saturday sessions with Mia and my fellow participants. She designed and delivered a hugely experiential series of content over the six week course, always enriched by relevant anecdotes from her own career as a corporate coach. Given we were learning a vast amount of new info and tools/techniques, Mia’s calm and engaging style meant that the course was always perfectly paced.
I’ve come away from the course feeling I now have the tools in my locker to engage sponsors and coachees in a more professional manner in the workplace. And as coaching can still feel fluffy and “wu-wu” to some in the corporate world, I am now confident in articulating the power and benefits of coaching in the corporate world to sponsors, individuals being coached, teams and the whole organisation.
This was a great investment in my future."

"I have just finished my training in Corporate Coaching with Mia at Animas and if I had to choose one word to describe this experience that would be fabulous!
Those 6 days have been pretty intense and rich - full of very interesting discussions and tools. I feel enriched and definitely more confident in applying those tools in my work.
Mia is an extraordinary trainer and facilitator. She demonstrated professionality and at the same time flexibility and ease.
I loved every module and I strongly recommend this course to whoever wants to work in the corporate world or with leaders in general."
Davide Barbuto - Engineering Manager,
Leadership and Life Coach
"The course offered me a space to build confidence and skill in the context of corporate coaching. Mia brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the course curriculum.
She is generous with her knowledge, experience and insight offering additional models or ideas where relevant. This allows for a rounded experience that meets the needs of the individuals as well as the collective."
