ABSTRACT

Some coaches conduct diagnostic interviews over the telephone or have a number of face-to-face meetings at the beginning of a coaching relationship. To find a less time-consuming solution, a number of web-based questionnaires have been designed, which focus on specific areas of performance linked to the coaching objectives that often crop up such as leadership, personal impact or influencing styles. These web-based questionnaires are circulated to the coachee, their subordinates, peers and superiors. The system collates the results into a report and this is fed back to the coachee.
