Why did I join ICF?

Aside from all the benefits of being a member of ICF as mentioned earlier, what really stands out for me is the fact that, first, I get to meet other coaches on a regular basis where we can share ideas and experiences;   secondly, that I have access to a monthly professional development education provided by the WA Chapter at a discounted rate;  thirdly, that my membership allows me to have a ‘voice’ in shaping the future of Coaching as a profession on a global scale.
