Meet the Founder

A master coach who still coaches every week.

Braja is the founder of Academy for Coaches and a Master Coach Trainer. Over more than two decades, he has trained over 3,500 coaches from 30 countries and taught leadership inside organizations including McKinsey, Microsoft, Samsung, Toyota, Cisco and GE.

"I fell in love with coaching while teaching leadership inside major organizations. What changed people was rarely the presentation itself — it was the conversation afterward, when someone finally felt heard and discovered their own answer."

"In 2009, I founded Academy for Coaches because too much coach training was just listening to lectures about coaching."

"I believe you learn coaching the same way you learn to swim — not by watching from the side, but by getting in the water."

That's why, at the Academy, you begin coaching from the very first morning — with real practice, live coaching, and feedback from experienced coaches. Braja still coaches every week himself, and what matters most to him is not titles or certificates but the quality of transformation a coach can create.

His goal is simple: to help you become the kind of coach people trust, remember, and recommend.

You learn by doing.

Live classes.

Real coaching practice.

Feedback.

Support.

People learning together.

People helping each other grow.

You're in good hands.

Our faculty are coaches first. They've all been through the training themselves. They've coached real people, built real practices, and lived the journey they're teaching you.

They're not just teachers reading from a manual. They're coaches who've been in your seat.

What we believe.

Learn by doing.

You don't become a coach by watching videos. You become a coach by coaching. From the very first morning, you're coaching real people.

Meaningful work matters.

Helping people create meaningful change is some of the most important work there is. We take it seriously.

Great coach training should be accessible.

We've deliberately kept Academy for Coaches affordable so you can begin developing professionally without a huge upfront investment.

Community makes the journey better.

You're not alone. You're part of a warm group of coaches who help each other, cheer for each other, and grow together.

We give back.

30 to 50% of our profits go to feeding hungry people and supporting community welfare. Because coaching is about making the world better — not just building a business.

A place to build a life you love.

Some people want to coach one-to-one.

Some want to coach groups.

Some want a small practice.

Some want coaching to become their full-time work.

There is no one right path.

The goal is to help you become a good coach and build a practice that fits the life you want.
