In 2023 I will become an accredited YouMap® Master Trainer, certifying an inaugural cohort in how to administer and debrief the YouMap® assessment with their clients starting in April.

What is YouMap®?

YouMap® is an elegant yet practical tool that helps coaches and leaders provide actionable guidance to their clients and employees.

It’s an assessment that’s holistic, intuitive, and actionable, and it’s based on four pillars: strengths, values, preferred skills and interests. I’ve been using it in my own coaching practice since 2019.

In over a decade of coaching, using YouMap® to help clients plan careers and coaching practices has been not only fulfilling and inspiring, but has completely transformed my own practice.

If you’re interested in knowing more about YouMap® and getting notified about upcoming info sessions, enter your info above and I’ll be in touch as details and timing emerge.

(Please know that entering your info does not commit you to further action).

F.A.Q.s

  • The inaugural cohorts of YouMap® certification will be geared towards coaches (leadership, executive, relationship, business, career, life, etc) and other people leaders who are interested in adding a career-focused assessment to their toolkit.

    I’ll be sharing more about the many ways it can be used and applied as I go through my accreditation, so if you want to learn more and stay in the loop be sure to add your name and email to the info list above.

  • The fee for the first certification has yet to be set but will be in the range of $3000. There is no recurring certification fee once complete.

  • As I’m imagining it now, a standard run will be 10 weeks, with 1x90-120 minute class each week.

    The accelerated version will be 5 weeks long, with 2 classes each week.

    All of these details are forthcoming - be sure to join the info list above to be kept in the loop.

  • The first cohort will begin on April 24th and run for five weeks.

    There will be two sessions/week - on Mondays and Thursdays from 10am-12pm EST.

  • I’m publishing a ton of info about how to use YouMap® in your coaching practice on my blog, so check that out.

    You can also drop your name on the waitlist above as I’ll be regularly sending out updates and info.

    If there are specific questions you’d like answered that you can’t find here, don’t hesitate to email me (allegra@allegrastein.com) or send me a message on Voxer (username: allegrastein)

  • Yes! YouMap® can be used by anyone who wants to help their clients and teams use and express their unique gifts. Branding, copywriting, and creative specialists, managers, team and people leaders, and HR professionals would all be served by using YouMap®. If you’re not sure if this is a right fit feel free to email me and we can talk. allegra@allegrastein.com

  • No. Your YouMap® is included as part of your certification. You are going to learn about each pillar by working through your own results.

    I got my own YouMap® done as part of my certification, not before.

    That said, there’s nothing stopping you from getting your YouMap® at any time if you’d like to see your own profile before deciding if a certification is a fit.

    I also offer 1:1 YouMap® debriefs - just ask.

    You can also read the YouMap® book to get a better sense of the tool before deciding if you want to get certified to use it in your own work.

  • On a big picture level, assesments like DISC or MBTI are personality tests ONLY. YouMap® is personality PLUS strengths, values and skills.

    In addition, the personality test used with YouMap® (Holland) is extensively used and referenced in research journals. For more specific comparisons check out this chart.

  • Nope. The applications of YouMap® are endless and you can design all kinds of offers around it - workshops, 1:1 partnerships, as part of other programming, and more.

    Besides training coaches in YouMap® I love talking about creative ways to apply it in your work.

    As part of the certification rounds we’ll likely have a bonus session devoted to helping you design how to incorporate it into your work.

  • Not exactly. This program will train you in how to ADMINISTER the YouMap® assessment and DEBRIEF your clients on their results.

    How you COACH your clients using these results will be entirely up to you and based on your own experience and skillset.

    We’ll be sharing a lot of examples of how to approach coaching using YouMap® as a resource but our focus will not be on developing foundational coaching skills.
