AB  - Seventy-two articles on executive coaching appearing in mainstream and trade management publications between 1991 and 1998 were analyzed to determine (a) general opinions of the practice of executive coaching and (b) the extent to which training in psychology was described as relevant and useful to coaching practice. A content analysis methodology yielded reliable coding across raters. Results of the review suggest that favorable views of executive coaching far exceed unfavorable views. However psychologists were infrequently recognized as uniquely competent practitioners. Implications of these findings for psychologists in coaching roles are discussed.
