What if every employee had access to someone who truly listened - without judgment, without an agenda - just real support, when it matters most?

That’s the power of coaching. And it’s what we’re working to make possible at GoMasterCoach.

Since 2019, our mission has been to make quality coaching accessible for people at every level, in every kind of workplace. And now, in honor of #GlobalWellnessMonth2025, we’re taking that mission a step further.

We’re proud to partner with Cléma Risk Solutions to launch a brand new Wellbeing Coaching Program that puts personalized, human-centered coaching within reach in the workplace for employees across industries.

Who We Are: Coaching, Democratized

Founded in 2019, GoMasterCoach began with a clear question: how do we make coaching accessible, without compromising on quality? We saw coaching services being perceived as exclusive, expensive, and often not aligned with the needs of a diverse, global workforce.

So we built something different.

Today, our network includes 400+ of rigorously certified coaches working in over 25 countries with diverse professional backgrounds, equipped to support people through transitions: burnout, career pivots, leadership challenges, imposter syndrome, and more. Our coaches are trained in accordance with the ICF (International Coaching Federation) standards and specialize across domains including executive leadership, wellness, and personal development.

We also developed a digital coaching platform designed for ease: clients can book sessions, track progress, and access 30+ ready-to-use coaching tools in multiple languages.

What Coaching Is - and What It Isn't

We often get asked: how does coaching differ from therapy, mentoring, or consulting? Here is a brief explanation on what these 4 services offer:

Therapy helps people process emotional trauma and heal from the past.
Mentoring involves guidance from someone who’s "been there" and shares their experience.
Consulting offers expert solutions to business or operational problems.
Coaching, by contrast, is future-focused. It's about asking powerful questions, holding space, and helping individuals take purposeful steps forward.

You don’t need to be in crisis to work with a coach. You just need a goal, a challenge, or simply a need to change. Coaching is a confidential, supportive partnership that empowers you to achieve what you put your mind to.

What to Expect in a Coaching Session

The coaching session’s agenda is co-created by the client and the coach, with the client being in the driver’s seat. Here's what a typical session might include:

You bring a topic: a challenge, goal, or area where you feel stuck.
Your coach listens and asks questions that help you see it from different perspectives.
Together, you uncover insights, work on blockers, or challenge limiting beliefs.
You leave with clarity and a concrete next step - whether it’s setting a boundary, trying a new approach, or simply reflecting differently.

Over time, coaching builds self-awareness, confidence, and resilience. The process meets you where you are and moves at your pace.

Why Coaching in the Workplace Is a Strategic Tool for SMEs and Startups

SMEs and startups are often fast-moving and resource-stretched. Leaders wear multiple hats. People rise quickly into new roles. And burnout can creep in quietly.

Coaching can be the pre-emptive measure before it goes too far. Through coaching, leaders and employees can benefit from:

Emotional support before stress turns into burnout
Leadership development in flat or rapidly scaling teams
Personalized growth without waiting for formal training programs

According to the International Coaching Federation, 72% of organizations say coaching boosts employee engagement. It’s not just for top executives: 78% of senior leaders and 73% of employees say coaching positively impacts their work experience. Coaching helps build cultures of trust, clarity, and self-leadership - without overloading HR or management.

What GoMasterCoach Brings to the Table

We’re not a gig economy coaching marketplace. We are a purpose-driven network that emphasizes:

Rigorous training (ICF-accredited)
Cultural fluency across 25+ countries
Active listening and coaching frameworks that drives real change
Specialization across different coaching niches, including executive, wellness, career, parenting, and more.

Through impactful coaching conversations, our coaches create space for reflection, challenge, and growth, grounded in industry expertise and lived experience. Whether someone is navigating burnout, stepping into leadership, or simply feeling stuck, they’re met with care, clarity, and a coach who gets it.

Why We’re Partnering with Cléma Risk Solutions

Cléma reached out because they were listening. As an insurance and benefits partner, they saw a growing need among their clients for not only physical support, but also mental and emotional well being of their people.

Together, we built a coaching program that is:

Easy to access: employees sign up directly, no manager approval needed
Confidential and secure: nothing shared back with the company
Global and inclusive: sessions available in multiple languages and time zones
Employee-led: people choose their coach and set their own goals

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all perk - it’s a practical step toward creating workplaces where people feel seen, supported, and empowered. Learn how Cléma is helping foster a culture of care.
