The Academy of Leadership Coaching & NLP is an international coach training and leadership development company. We are the only ICF-approved coaching academy which combines NLP coaching techniques and deep coaching experience with a truly global perspective. Our coach training programs attract coaches who want to be leaders in their field. Our global leadership program appeals to executives entrepreneurs, Fortune 500 managers, leaders from the political arena, and community leaders from all around the world. Common to all our students is a desire to create lives they love to wake up to—and help bring about positive change in the world. We give people the skills and tools to make these transformations happen. ALCN (formerly ACN) is the culmination of more than a decade’s development of our programs and teaching models, and the building of an international network. Originally grown out of the NLP and Coaching Institute of California, ALCN has been providing coach training in the U.S. and internationally for 12 years. We cater to a worldwide community of students—people from 45 nationalities have attended our courses. Why the international focus? Think of the boardrooms of global companies, the millions who work in the knowledge economy, the mobile millennials. In today’s global workforce, your success as a leader or a coach is closely tied to your ability to communicate, inspire, and coach across cultures and age groups.
