If you have a specific niche skill that will add increased value to our chapter members, send us a note at office@icf-cf.com and we will schedule a time to connect to explore our partnership opportunities.

We recently established successful partnerships with individuals and organizations who provide a unique set of skills or service offerings that add value to our members. Partnership opportunities may include: training and development, retreats, certification discounts, assessment tools and other value added resources.

We look forward to learning more about the potential partnership opportunities between our chapter and your services soon.

Strategic Partnership: ICF-CF & Linkage Women In Leadership

ICF-CF, committed to providing opportunities for coaches to inspire and change individuals and organizations, has created a strategic partnership with Linkage. Linkage, owned by SHRM (The Society of Human Resource Management), is a global leadership development firm committed to advancing women and accelerating inclusion in leaders and organizations. Through the partnership, ICF-CF sources coaches for Linkage’s Annual 4-Day Women in Leadership Institute (WIL). WIL is a four-day learning experience designed to equip women leaders with actionable strategies to overcome hurdles women often face in the workplace. Throughout the workshop, participants attend a variety of Keynote Presentations and then meet in small groups with expert facilitators to deconstruct the learnings and create individual actionable development plans.

ICF-CF partners with Linkage to identify coaches with facilitation experience to facilitate the breakout sessions. Coaches are paid $1500 to attend and facilitate workshops throughout the 4-day conference, are provided a full, complimentary conference admission and are also provided access to the virtual conference for the remainder of the calendar year. Travel and accommodations are at the expense of the coach. There may be opportunity for coaches to engage in one-on-one coaching engagements with participants that would like to continue their learning.

The 2023 event will be held November 13th – November 16th in Orlando, Florida. To be considered candidates must have either their MCC, PCC or ACC and facilitation experience. Linkage will make the determination of which coaches are chosen following an interview. Approximately 40 coaches are needed. An information seminar will be held in May 2023 for coaches desiring more information on this opportunity. Interviews will be conducted in the June / July 2023 timeframe.

Strategic Partnership: ICF-CF & The Honor Foundation 

ICF-CF, committed to inspiring and changing lives personally and professionally, has formed a strategic alliance with The Honor Foundation (THF). THF is a career transition program for U.S. Special Operations Forces that supports elite military service in their transition to the private sector and helps create the next generation of corporate and community leaders.

Over 800 alumni have completed the 3-phase, 120-hour program which spans 12 to 15 months culminating in an onsite ‘Trek’ to visit various companies to experience their organization and culture first-hand. Three cohort programs are initiated each year. The program is offered both virtually as well as at the 8 campuses located throughout the US including a location in Tampa, Florida.

ICF-CF is partnering with THF to provide ancillary coaching to class participants, coaches with human resources, health and/or business backgrounds are preferred. ICF accreditation is not required; it is preferred. To maintain continuity with the program, it is asked that coaches commit to a minimum of 2 cohort classes per year and be open to attending some local class sessions. An informational seminar will be held in May 2023. Coach interviewing will begin in June 2023. The 3-month engagement begins in August 2023. The goal is for each coach to engage 4 times per month; total commitment of 32 hours. If interested please send an email with relevant experience to Misha Harding @ Partners@icf-cf.com
