A coaching framework for developing the psychological capital of a global mindset

P Parish International Journal of Evidence Based Coaching and Mentoring 2016

The impact of critical experience on international executives can have serious consequences, assignments may fail. So coaching support may enhance their psychological capital and global competencies. This small heuristic study involved five co-researchers specialised in coaching international executives across the world on career and leadership development. The themes and qualities of their coaching approaches were synthesised into a composite coaching framework, triangulated with literature and; highlighted person-environment matching based on experience of nomadic work/life style and the use of home-world coaching dialogue to appreciate ‘home as a process’.
