This book offers an approach to business and executive coaching that properly aligns the practice in the culture of business through the use of a relational "coaching axis" that helps to manage the ...complexity of the organisation and the individual as dual clients. Business and executive coaching occurs within an organisational context with the goal of promoting success at all levels of the organisation by affecting the actions of those being coached (Worldwide Association of Business Coaches, 2007). This form of coaching is distinct from other types in two ways, firstly it is focused on achieving business outcomes, and secondly, both the individual being coached and the sponsoring organization are simultaneously the client. This book explains how a coach manages the complexity of helping these two clients by acting as a narrative bridge between their stories. It offers a relational approach which resists remedial or curative notions born from coaching's human science roots and instead aligns to workplace realities.
Sport provision is best understood as a series of distinctive domains, with characteristic purposes, motivations, practices and demands on coaches' expertise. This paper identifies the ...characteristics of the instructor-led adult participation coaching domain, which is the least well researched and developed, and identifies the implications for coach education and workforce management. The propositions are illustrated by conversations with Coaching Development Managers from eight sports in the UK that have a significant adult participation profile. The paper confirms the variety of domain populations, from casual recreation to coach-dependent adult competition, including 'Masters'-designated participation, but outside the mainstream of performance sport. It highlights two principal coaching practices: market-led sport instructors, delivering episodic, largely technique-based 'lessons' to participants, and (club) coaches of adult competition sport. However, much of the characteristic adult participation is casual recreation and coach-independent. The paper argues that a fuller understanding of this domain is important for ensuring that coaches' expertise and practice are matched to participant needs.
Bu çalışmanın amacı iş dünyasında ayakta kalabilmenin gereklerinin sürekli değiştiği günümüz dünyasında uzun vadede bunu başaracak işletmelerin, öğrenmeye açık işletmeler olacağını vurgulamaktır. Bu ...tür işletmeler her kademede çalışan insangiicünün öğrenme yoluyla kendini geliştirebileceği, yenileyebileceği, iş başarısını artırabileceği işletmelerdir. Bu anlamda deşündüğiimüzde işletmedeki geleneksel yönetim ve yönetici kavramının dışına çıkmamız gerekmektedir. Günümüz modern işletmelerinde, yönetici klasik işlevleri olan planlama örgütleme, yürütme, uyumlaştırma ve kontrol işlevlerinin dışında, aynı zamanda bir eğitmen gibi de hareket edebilmelidir. Yöneticinin bu işlevini, takımını başarılı kılmak için onlara sürekli yeni oyun kuralları öğreten, taktikler veren, motive etmek suretiyle takım ruhunu ayakta tutmaya çalışan bir futbol ya da basketbol koçunun işleviyle özdeşleştirebiliriz. Yönetici, işletme yönetiminde işgörenlerine karşı bir koç gibi davranırken, gerçekleştirmesi gereken temel görevleri işgörenleri eğitmek ve onları başarı güdüsü ile donanmış, kendilerine güvenen ve mevcut performanslarının üzerine çıkabilecek nitelikte bireyler haline getirmektir. Tabi ki bu amaçları gerçekleştirebilmek için koçun güvenilir, işgörenler tarafından kabul görmüş ve onların üzerinde işletme amaçlarına bağlılık yaratabilecek nitelikte bir kişi olması ve birtakım bireysel özelliklere sahip olması gerekmektedir.
