Wenzel Coach
Selection Process:
Each Wenzel Coaching coach goes through a three-part interview
process, a qualification and reference check, and must meet standards
of coaching and event experience,
education, communication skills, organization, motivation, and leadership.
They then receive further training in the philosophies, programs,
processes and customer service of Wenzel Coaching.
Wenzel
Coaches are committed to coaching long term and have committed the
time to full or part time coaching work. In fact, a number of our
coaches are people who once started out as athletes on Wenzel programs
for many years and believed in the programs so much that they applied
to become Wenzel coaches! Intern and resident coaches are not assigned
clients by Wenzel Coaching.

page.
If you are looking to contact one of our
