The Coaching Commons
The Coaching Commons is an independent, noncommercial online gathering place where anyone can come to explore “all things coaching.” It’s the place where uncommon conversations and current news about coaching are compiled on a daily basis.
The Coaching Commons also serves as coaching’s think tank with extended project management capabilities. We don’t just talk about great ideas; we take action on the very best. Join us to add to the conversation, fan the flames, request help or just plain learn more by visiting www.coachingcommons.org
The Foundation of Coaching

The Gift of Coaching
The Gift of Coaching is an online compendium of organizations whose pro-bono coaching is making an impact all over the world. Coaches are giving free sessions, volunteering for coaching organizations, helping other nonprofits and good causes every day. The Gift of Coaching is designed to show where the gifts of pro-bono coaching may be donated, offering coaches the opportunity to choose their next place of service. We hope The Gift of Coaching will encourage the already-vibrant spirit of giving within the coaching community. If you know of, are affiliated with, volunteer for, or run an organization that should be listed at The Gift of Coaching, email us at linda@thehf.org. Visit the project at www.thegiftofcoaching.org.
