Case Studies


Overview

In this part of the book you will find a series of case studies that we have gathered from individuals who have coached and who have been coached. These case studies give examples of different processes of coaching and different situations in which coaching has been used.

Within most of the coach case studies you will find the following:

  • Some detail about the background of the coach, the situation in which coaching took place and how the coach learnt his or her coaching skills.

  • A description of the process that was followed.

  • Positive aspects of using the process.

  • Challenges that were faced during the coaching relationship.

  • What the coach learnt during the process.

  • Top tips for other coaches.

  • Advice and ideas for coachees.

  • Some final words.

  • In some instances, our comments are also given.

Use these case studies to help you formulate your own ideas about how you will use coaching. Add your own comments to ours. Compare the processes used with the one we have offered in Part 1 (see Chapter 3) and learn what you can from the experiences of others.

The coachee case studies will give you some insight about what coaching feels like when you are ˜on the receiving end . Use the experiences of the coachees to help you consider what does and does not work. Look at coaching from the other side of the relationship and use this to help you build empathy with your own coachees.

If you have any case studies that you would like to share with us, we may be able to use them in future editions of this book.
