ROQUE for the Professional User
ICF Code of Ethics
The QuestUniquE philosophy and methodology, ROQUE family of discovery and coaching tools, and the ROQUE coach's questions, all adhere to the International Coach Federation standards of coaching. We fully subscribe to the ICF Definition of Coaching.
It is a condition of our coaching practice that the ICF Standards of Ethical Conduct are respected and honoured at all times within our professional coaching engagements. This includes:
- Professional Conduct at Large
- Professional Conduct with Clients
- Confidentiality
- Conflicts of Interest
The ICF Pledge of Ethics
As a professional coach, I acknowledge and agree to honour my ethical obligations to my coaching clients and colleagues and to the public at large. I pledge to comply with the ICF Code of Ethics, to treat people with dignity as independent and equal human beings, and to model these standards with those whom I coach. If I breach this Pledge of Ethics or any part of the ICF Code of Ethics, I agree that the ICF in its sole discretion may hold me accountable for so doing. I further agree that my accountability to the ICF for any breach may include loss of my ICF membership and/or my ICF credentials.

Professional use of ROQUE
- Accredited coaches owe NO commissions or royalties for ANY coaching programs they derive from the use of ROQUE
- All coaches assume appropriate liability within their own business operations and processes.
- ROQUE may be used within existing coaching, teaming, personal development or professional development or corporate programs.
- Special interest groups may elect to direct their effective contribution to a nominated specific Community Aid Program. For every ROQUE administration of AU$11:00 (plus AU$1:10 GST in Australia), internationally US$10.00, AU$5:00 is allocated to a CAP. If 10 program applicants are processed, then AU$50:00 is the CAP allocation. A further AU$10.00 is allocated to a volunteer fund.
- A coach may also elect that all his/her coachees CAP contributions be directed to the coach’s preferred CAP. In the spirit of ROQUE, all that is asked is that the three guiding principles are considered. See how ROQUE helps others.
- Corporations may also nominate pre-existing CAPs to support their own contributions to the community.
ROQUE and the Stella Maris Trust
- All contributions from the ROQUE administrations ie AU$5:00 from every fee will be paid to the Stella Maris Trust as the single distribution channel for all donations made to considered Community Aid Programs.
- Currently the Stella Maris Trust is independent from Joseph D'Souza & Associates Pty Ltd and this separation is strategic to afford independence and autonomy to the Board of Trustees.
- In time, the Stella Maris Trust may elect to become a not-for-profit organization
- In time, the Stella Maris Trust may elect to become a registered charity
- A further AU$1.00 will be allocated to a volunteer fund for distribution to individuals via a bona fide process.
- It is the intent that as revenues become available to Joseph D'Souza & Associates through the ROQUE administrations, Volunteer contributions will be made to the Board of Trustees to recognize and compensate for their volunteered efforts in administering the Stella Maris Trust.
- It is the intention that ALL CAP contributions from the ROQUE model administrations be made free of any management costs.
Continuous Improvement
The ROQUE model and associated processes will be constantly reviewed, updated and improved in the spirit of achieving:
- the WIDEST possible global reach to assist interested individuals
- the motivation to support Community Aid Programs and materially make a difference by tapping into the individual potential and inspire good aspirations for genuine community development based on the unique contribution of every individual
- A recognized tool and service of integrity and good intent
