11 April 2025 | Alumni-Initiated Cautionary Note to the CCI Community

Announcements - 11 April 2025

Dear CCI Community

We are writing to share a note of caution, initiated by members of our alumni community who have expressed concern regarding recent outreach from an individual formerly associated with CCI’s faculty.

Several alumni have reported being contacted by this individual, who is promoting a personal development offering outside of CCI. The nature of these interactions has, in some cases, been described as deeply uncomfortable and unpleasant, or misaligned with the values and integrity of our community and the wider coaching profession. Those who have raised this matter have expressed a wish to protect fellow graduates and students from potentially unpleasant experiences, and have asked that we share this with the broader community.

We want to affirm that CCI and existing staff or faculty members are not associated in any way with this individual’s current offerings, intentions, personal views, or communications. These activities are independent of CCI. We do not endorse or support any such programs or materials being circulated under their direction, nor their acts of solicitation within our community.

We encourage everyone in our network to exercise discernment and care should you be approached in this context. If you have questions or would like to report a related experience, please feel free to reach out to us directly and in confidence.

We share this message out of a collective interest in preserving the integrity, safety, and mutual respect that define our learning community.

Warmest regards
Collective Change Institute
