What are my coaching industry predictions for 2026?

Coaching Industry Predictions for 2026 What will it take to stay relevant in the coaching industry and are you ready for the changes already underway? In this episode of The Coaching Hub, I break down the key trends set to shape the coaching industry by 2026. Whether you're an established coach, industry newcomer, or passionate about personal development, this episode will give you an honest take on what’s next for coaching and how you can get ahead. I explore why accreditation is rapidly moving from a “nice-to-have” to an essential for credibility, client trust, and even market access. I unpack the rise in popularity of neurodiversity coaching, the rise in demand for team and in-person coaching, and how organisations are now actively seeking accredited professionals. As AI becomes a support tool (not a replacement!), I explain how the human touch remains central. You’ll also hear about the increasing focus on psychology, neuroscience, and person-centric approaches that value every individual’s unique makeup. Plus, discover why coaching isn’t just for coaches anymore, coaching skills are becoming must-haves for leaders and teams, so we can create workplaces where everyone thrives. What’s inside: Why industry-wide accreditation is becoming non-negotiable The boom in neurodiversity coaching and what responsible practice really requires Why team coaching and in-person experiences are making a comeback How AI can support (but not replace!) great coaching The movement toward psychology and neuroscience-led coaching Why person-centric, holistic coaching is the future.
