Eastern Influence on Coaching
Abstract
This chapter is not meant to be a scholarly treatment of the topic, but instead an effort to build awareness that coaching principles, philosophy, and practice are heavily influenced by, or at least related to, the diverse notion of “Eastern thinking.” It is my hope that it may inspire further thinking and exploration on the part of the reader.
The terms coaching “frameworks, techniques, tools” have been used interchangeably in the literature on executive coaching. The coaching process often progresses through five phases: (1) establishing the coaching relationship, (2) gathering feedback, (3) setting goals, (4) progressing toward goals, and (5) transitioning out of the coaching engagement. This chapter illustrates these phases and the primary objectives of each phase. It discusses the frameworks, tools, and techniques in terms of these phases. In addition, the authors conducted discussions with more than a dozen other coaches regarding the frameworks, tools, and techniques they found most valuable when coaching leaders for varying purposes. These are briefly described in the appendixes at the end of the chapter.
