Coaching in Government from the “Shadow”
D Karlin International Journal of Coaching in Organizations 2008
As a Shadow Coach™, Donna Karlin helps her government clients identify not only the source of a problem but the ‘core dynamic’ underneath the source, knowing there is yet another level where the ultimate drivers of their thinking, behavior and performance operate. Karlin indicates in this article that she has to almost instinctively know these underlying dynamics. The client’s situation and frustrations must become crystal clear and very coachable, in the moment, quickly, and within the framework of government policies and processes.
