We live in a world that is volatile, uncertain, complex and
ambiguous, in which our work and lives are constantly disrupted and
changing. But coaches and leaders are still trained to operate
within stable models with a uni-focus on performance. Coaches are
starting to question the remit of 'raising performance' within
existing systems, many of which are outdated, dysfunctional and
even toxic. The role of the coach today must evolve to become fit
for purpose in challenging times and coaching must re-articulate
its values, as the essential compass for navigating turbulent
waters. In The Future of Coaching, Hetty Einzig examines the role
of coaching and leadership in the twenty-first century, and sets
out a compelling vision for its future. Drawing on experience
gained over twenty-five years of coaching leaders in the corporate
and public sectors, in the UK and globally, she challenges the
tenet of coaching neutrality. Rather than simply following the
client agenda, she encourages coaches to see themselves as partners
in courageous leadership and to work towards building an ethical,
holistic and networked coaching approach to help create businesses
that serve society and our globalised world. The book asks
essential questions of coaches working today: how can leaders and
coaches become 'positive deviants' and transform the rules of the
game within cultures where denial and group-think are rife? How can
coaches work with the anxious and depressed, embracing the dark as
well as the light? Are coaches prepared for the rise of
Millennials, women leaders and those over sixty (the Third Acters)?
Einzig challenges the model of the Strong Leader in favour of
Respons-able leadership based on authentic strength, distributed
power and responsive thinking. And she shows how this vision of a
transformed workplace is essential for the transformations society
must undertake to reclaim a positive future. This thought provoking
collection of essays, designed to be read in any order, is
enlightening and inspiring reading for coaches in practice and in
training, HR and L&D professionals and for leaders everywhere.
