What is Creativity Coaching?

Creativity coaching is similar to life coaching, but it focuses on the challenges faced by creatives in all the art disciplines, issues like overcoming creative blocks, getting creative work done, navigating the art marketplaces, etc. Creativity coaches have helped thousands of artists, writers, inventors, entrepreneurs and other creative souls achieve their goals and realize their dreams.

About The Program

Created by Dr. Eric Maisel, the world’s leading creativity coach, the Creativity Coach Certificate and Diploma Self-Paced Program is designed to train you to become an independent Creativity Coach, to connect you to the world-class resources of Noble-Manhattan Coaching, and to provide you upon completion with a recognized and respected certificate or diploma that serves as proof that you have successfully completed a rigorous, experiential course of study and reflection.

Who Is This For?

The program prepares you to work with creative and performing artists (writers, visual artists, filmmakers, musicians, craftspeople, etc.), creators in every discipline (academics, computer engineers, game creators, etc.), individuals wanting to unlock their creativity and become highly creative, businesses and organizations looking to become more creative, and anyone with a desire to live a more creative life. If you wish to use this knowledge and qualification to work with clients then it is important that you have done some form of Coach Training. If however you wish to increase your own creativity it is not necessary for you to have done coach training.
