Identity and Values: The Foundation of bso
Our vision and mission serve as the compass for all our actions. They define our shared understanding of quality and professionalism in coaching, supervision and organisational consulting. These values safeguard our governance and shape the future of the Swiss consulting industry.
Professional Consulting with Impact
As the leading professional association for coaching, supervision and organisational consulting in Switzerland, we provide orientation in a free market. We stand for consulting that is ethically grounded, quality-assured, and socially responsible. Through binding standards and an effective code of ethics, we strengthen the trust of clients, organisations, and the public.
Our Core Objectives:
- Professionalism: We promote the professional excellence of our members.
- Networking: We actively shape the professional discourse – both nationally and internationally.
- Transparency: Our actions are characterised by participation, mutual respect and clear governance.
Clear Structures for the Highest Standards
To guarantee maximum independence and quality, bso relies on a strict separation of functions. The integration of strategic leadership, operational implementation and professional oversight ensures our professionalism at all levels.
Committees and Secretariat
The bso is organised democratically: while the executive committee determines strategy, the secretariat ensures professional operational implementation. Independent expert committees support this process through their specific expertise.
Transparent Complaint Management
The bso's complaints management system ensures regulated and independent procedures in the event of violations of standards or the code of ethics. It strengthens client protection and the credibility of our quality label.
Network and Collaborations
The bso is networked nationally and internationally, collaborating with educational institutions, labor organizations, and partner associations. These cooperations promote quality, innovation, and the further development of the profession.
