Executive Summary
Coaches are
leveraged best in conditions where they have no responsibility,
accountability and authority
(RAA) over those persons they are coaching.
I will begin by
stating the context for this discussion; the definitions of business
coach and coaching.
Coach:
a person participating in a mutually voluntary interaction without
responsibility, accountability or authority over the outcomes of
the person being coached towards a result of desirable performance,
generative change and development of the whole person not separate from
the business systems to which they are connected.
Coaching is
an interaction that occurs between people as an attempt to produce
desired performance, change or transformation in consideration of
personal and organizational awareness, purpose, competence and
wellbeing.
In the definitions (assumptions) above, we lay the groundwork for the
hypothesis stated:
"Coaches are best leveraged in conditions where they have no
responsibility, accountability and authority over those persons they
are coaching."
