Coaching - How Diversity Impacted Our Journey: A Tale of Two Women

R Price International Journal of Coaching in Organizations 2006

In a high performance culture, where achievement is supported, recognized and rewarded, assigning a coach to an exceptional contributor is not unusual. What may be unusual is the perspective which allowed two women from very different frames of reference to adopt a spiritual paradigm and use a family context to stimulate their growth in ways that are measurable, unexpected and of lasting value to the organization. in this article, Price traces the journey of two women, who, while on a quest for exceptional performance, created a model which others could emulate. Price also considers how the diversity of the partners spawned the approach and impacted their joint and unique experiences.
