ABSTRACT
The purpose of this strategy is to develop a meaningful feedback process that enables the stakeholders to determine the success of the coaching.
Description
During the contracting phase for a piece of coaching, we aim to develop a feedback pattern that requires the client to evaluate the coaching with their stakeholders, including their line manager. The line manager takes responsibility to feed back to the coach useful effects of coaching. This has a dual purpose:
• confidentiality – a safe coaching space can be created for the client to discover, become vulnerable, experiment;
• it prepares fertile ground for growth in the client as their stakeholders notice the effects of coaching.
