What is the ICF Virginia Summit?

In an era of constant transformation and AI acceleration, human connection, awareness, and growth are what truly set organizations apart.

The ICF Virginia Summit is more than a conference—it's a one-day immersive experience uniting business and HR leaders, credentialed coaches, and change agents across sectors. Together, we'll explore the real-world impact of coaching, share evidence-based practices, and discover how credentialed coaching can elevate performance, well-being, and leadership in the workplace and beyond.

Why Coaching Matters in Today’s Tech-Enabled World

Coaching helps organizations maximize the return on their largest investment—their people—by equipping leaders to unlock performance, resilience, and growth in a tech-enabled, constantly changing world. When leaders know how to inspire, support, and hold their teams accountable, they create engaged and motivated employees who drive innovation, customer value, and sustainable business results that no technology alone can deliver.

After coaching:

• 96% of organizations report improvements in individual performance
• 92% indicated that coaching improved leadership and management effectiveness
• 85% of coaching participants report positive effects on their self-confidence
• Organizations report an average of 7x ROI on their investment in coaching
