COACH SUPERVISION AND MENTOR COACHING PROGRAMS

Let’s be honest: you didn't climb into the ₹20L–₹60L+ salary bracket just to spend the rest of your career chasing project updates, managing spreadsheets, and putting out daily workplace fires.

After 15+ years of leading teams in intense sectors like IT, BFSI, or consulting, a subtle shift happens. The thrill of hitting standard business targets starts to fade. You start looking for something deeper. You want to build a real legacy, mentor the next generation of leaders, and design a meaningful second career that you actually own.

But here is the catch: managing a team is completely different from transforming a person. When senior executives try to pivot into independent consulting or executive coaching without a proven, recognized framework, they often hit a wall.

They struggle to get clients to see their value, they rely on giving basic advice instead of creating deep behavioral change, and they lack the global credibility that corporate buyers look for.

That is where the Become a Professional Coach (BPC) program comes in. This is Matrrix's advanced, Level 2 ICF coaching certification pathway. It is designed specifically for senior professionals who want to master human behavior, build unquestionable market authority, and transition into high-ticket coaching, without guessing their way through it.

Which Framework Matches Your Ambition?

Not all training is created equal. Here is how our two core tracks split based on where you are today and where you want to land:

Your GoalThe Level 1 Track (BAC)The Level 2 Advanced Track (BPC)
Who it’s forManagers, HR specialists, and professionals building a baseline skillset.VPs, Directors, CXOs, and seasoned consultants aiming for the top tier.
Deep-dive hours60 hours of foundational training.125 hours of advanced behavioral mastery.
Core focusMastering the baseline ICF core competencies.Blending ICF standards with advanced psychology and business-launch systems.
The outcomeA direct route to your ICF ACC credential.The ultimate fast-track to the prestigious ICF PCC credential.

Inside the 125-Hour BPC Experience

We don't do boring, dry lectures. The BPC program is a hands-on, interactive incubation space split into two distinct, high-impact phases:

Phase 1: Embodying the Master Coach Mindset

First, we ground you in the core ethics and habits of a true professional. You will learn how to create deep psychological safety so clients open up completely. You'll master the art of setting airtight agreements with corporate sponsors and learn to listen for the subtle things your clients aren't saying out loud. This builds a natural, highly confident coaching presence whether you are working face-to-face or virtually.

Phase 2: The Human Behavior Blueprint

This is where you get your competitive edge. We layer advanced behavioral science directly over your corporate experience, giving you tools drawn from:

  • Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) & Neuroscience: Understand how the brain processes change so you can help clients break old habits fast.
  • Transactional Analysis & CBT Frameworks: Spot the hidden office politics, communication breakdowns, and mental blocks that keep leaders stuck.
  • Somatic & Mindful Alignment: Use body language, energy regulation, and presence to handle high-stress coaching scenarios with ease.

The Vision Driving the Program

We don't believe in checking off boxes or just passing an exam. The main goal of this program is to transform you into a highly skilled, world-class professional coach who can walk into any corporate boardroom or private session with total confidence.

Through our partnership with global coaching leaders, we have built a curriculum designed to unleash human potential. It bridges the gap between basic theory and real-world execution, giving you a structured pathway to earn an ICF credential while building an authentic identity as a leader.

The Real Value of an ICF-Accredited Program

Choosing an ICF accredited coach training program means choosing a curriculum that has been rigorously vetted to ensure it meets strict global standards. Here is exactly what an accredited pathway does for your career:

  • You cannot transform others until you transform yourself. This training fundamentally shifts your own personality, helping you build a highly optimistic, strategic approach to life and business.
  • Instead of using generic frameworks, you develop specialized skills that prove you are an expert who understands human behavior.
  • An ICF badge adds undeniable proof to your professional background. It opens doors to premium global networks and gives corporate buyers the confidence to sponsor your programs.
  • You will train alongside top-notch professionals, senior leaders, and innovators, expanding your network with every single cohort interaction.
  • High-net-worth individuals and corporate organizations feel safe hiring you because they know you follow a rigid, universally accepted code of ethics.
  • By building an unshakeable reputation from the start, you naturally attract premium clients, command higher retainers, and enjoy a sustainable, long-term ROI on your training.
