Rethinking Coachingoffers a spirited challenge to the paradigms that have of late dominated organizational life, most notably in the banking sector. The vehiclethe authorspropose as being best suited to encourage a comprehensive reassessment of the ideologies that have brought about the credit crunch is coaching.They set out a more radical approach to the practice based on scepticism, particularly as it has been developed from the later twentieth century onwards by key postmodern critical theorists.
One of the reasons organizational ideologies go uncontested is that critics of destructive group-think are often suppressed and silenced. Overall, this bookaims to show how coaching can widen its intellectual range such that it can become a progressively more effective technique within organizational life resisting group-think: a positive force for preventing crises of the kind that have caused such havoc in contemporary economic and political life, on a truly international scale.

This book takes a fresh look at corporate strategy, exploring it from a feminist perspective. Challenging male-dominated theory, Corporate Strategy looks at unquestioned assumptions held about strategy in practice and academia, including whether women approach strategy differently from men, and if so, how their approach differs?

Reviewing the histories of strategy and feminism, the book explores the reasons why so few serious works on strategy have been written by women, and investigates the continued lack of women at senior levels within many organizations. AngA(c)lique du Toit draws on postmodern arguments to illustrate the claims made for the necessity of diversity within organizations, and challenges the fact that positions of power, both in society and organizations remain the exclusive right of men. Corporate Strategy argues that if an organization is to survive and succeed in the global economy, it has to pay more than lip service to issues surrounding diversity.
