Standards of Ethical Conduct (ICF)

Professional Coaching is an ongoing professional relationship that helps people produce extraordinary results in their lives, careers, businesses or organizations. Through the process of coaching, clients deepen their learning, improve their performance, and enhance their quality of life. In each meeting, the client chooses the focus of conversation, while the coach listens and contributes observations and questions. This interaction creates clarity and moves the client into action. Coaching accelerates the client’s progress by providing greater focus and awareness of choice. Coaching concentrates on where clients are now and what they are willing to do to get where they want to be in the future.
International Coaching Federation

Standards of ethics are the cornerstone of any profession and the International Coach Federation (ICF) has drafted one of the highest standards for Professional Life Coaches. ICF and the Institute for Life Coach Training both play important roles in helping the profession of Life Coaching maintain the highest level of ethics desired by every coaching client. Sharon strives to honor and always adhere to these standards of conduct, embracing both the letter and spirit of the code. Please feel free to read the ICF Standards of Ethical Conduct listed below:

Professional Conduct At Large
1) I will conduct myself in a manner that reflects well on coaching as a profession and I will refrain from doing anything that harms the public's understanding or acceptance of coaching as a profession.
2) I will honor agreements I make in my all of my relationships. I will construct clear agreements with my clients that may include confidentiality, progress reports, and other particulars.
3) I will respect and honor the efforts and contributions of others.
4) I will respect the creative and written work of others in developing my own materials and not misrepresent them as my own.
5) I will use ICF member contact information (email addresses, telephone numbers, etc.) only in the manner and to the extent authorized by the ICF.
Professional Conduct With Clients
6) I will accurately identify my level of coaching competence and I will not overstate my qualifications, expertise or experience as a coach.
7) I will ensure that my coaching client understands the nature of coaching and the terms of the coaching agreement between us.
8) I will not intentionally mislead or make false claims about what my client will receive from the coaching process or from me as their coach.
9) I will not give my clients or any prospective clients information or advice I know to be misleading or beyond my competence.
10) I will be alert to noticing when my client is no longer benefiting from our coaching relationship and would be better served by another coach or by another resource and, at that time, I will encourage my client to make that change.
Confidentiality/Privacy
11) I will respect the confidentiality of my client's information, except as otherwise authorized by my client, or as required by law.
12) I will obtain agreement with my clients before releasing their names as clients or references or any other client identifying information.
13) I will obtain agreement with the person being coached before releasing information to another person compensating me.
Conflicts of Interest
14) I will seek to avoid conflicts between my interests and the interests of my clients.
15) Whenever any actual conflict of interest or the potential for a conflict of interest arises, I will openly disclose it and fully discuss with my client how to deal with it in whatever way best serves my client.
16) I will disclose to my client all anticipated compensation from third parties that I may receive for referrals or advice concerning that client.
