Coaching Ethics Forum

Early 2020 we decided to bring a group of leading academics, representatives from coaching bodies and leading coaches from across the globe to begin a conversation about how to increase ethical thinking, ethical conversations and ethical decision making in coaching.

To extend the conversation and influence of ethics in across the coaching community it was decided to hold conferences. The events are held virtually to enable the global coaching community to participate.

And so, the forum was founded and named The Coaching Ethics Forum.

CEF Purpose

The Coaching Ethics Forum (CEF) is an independent forum dedicated to the ethical dimensions in the field of coaching, coach supervision and education. To do this we seek to engage in discussions with the coaching community (coaches, coaching bodies, coach supervisors, coach educators, coaching researchers, HR, coaching and consulting organisations, and all who are interested in ethics). Our hope is to positively influence coaches thinking and practice across professional contexts, and the broader community it regularly engages.
