| description | 15 middle managers from a major Danish, nationwide company were trained to coach by two coaching psychologists<br />through theoretical presentations, individual coaching and peer coaching sessions with direct supervision<br />(learning-by-doing, (see Spaten, 2011b)). Until now there has been conducted rather limited empirical<br />research on managers who coach their employees. The aim was to investigate the managers challenging and<br />successful experiences when coaching their employees and how these coaching sessions were assessed by their<br />employees. The qualitative analysis elicited three main themes: 1) coaching skills, 2) professional and personal<br />development, and 3) the coaching relationship and power relations. Middle managers’ coaching skills were assessed<br />very positively by employees across all coaching sessions. One key finding of the study is that the manager<br />as coach, should be very sensitive and empathetic in building the coaching relationship, be aware of the power<br />relations and make clear boundaries between the role as leader and the role as coach. |
