Ms. Meryl Moritz

MESSAGE FROM MERYL:

“Coach U was a pioneer in the training of coaches. I hold the institution in highest regard for this reason. It turned out a generation of professionally trained coaches and with the other pioneering coach training programs gave new meaning to the word ‘coach’ and the practice of being a coach. It made holding a coaching certification attractive to people all over the world, with people in Australia, Europe, Japan, Latin America, and Singapore eager to experiment with this new discipline. Then, when coaching was in danger of becoming a fad rather than a respected field, Coach U started Corporate Coach U and offered a tool to organizational coaches to use with their clients, The Coaching Clinic. Professional coaching owes a big debt to Coach U for laying a foundation for what coaching has evolved to.”
