212 Derece Lays the Foundation for a New Generation of Leadership
Ankara, Türkiye – May 30, 2025 – Celebrating its 10th anniversary, 212 Derece Coaching Academy continues to lead a multi-layered transformation movement—from individuals to organizations, from education to business.
Founded in 2015 with the vision of “raising coaches who go through their own transformation first,” 212 Derece Coaching Academy has stood out not only for training professional coaches but also for empowering individuals with strong self-awareness, agile thinking, effective decision-making, and the ability to lead their own lives.
Today, it is recognized as a pioneer of the Coaching for Transformation approach in Turkey.
New Generation of Leadership
The book Coaching for Transformation, written by founder Can Deniz Timur, goes beyond traditional definitions of coaching and reframes it as a mindset and developmental path. This book has significantly contributed to spreading a new language and culture in the field.
“What would be possible in a team where coaching culture is the norm?”
“How might a school, a home, or a leadership style be transformed through the lens of coaching?”

To date, the academy has worked with a wide range of individuals—from HR professionals and entrepreneurs to CEOs and university students—approaching coaching not just as a set of techniques, but as a way of thinking and living.

Run by certified coaches who are alumni of the academy, this initiative supports students in:
- Developing self-awareness
