The Leader Coach

How to accelerate the development of leaders has been the subject of study, but there is still a need for more research into the potential of coaching. This study aims to investigate the ways in which coaching can support the development of leaders. Surveys are conducted with middle and top leaders because they play a crucial role in identifying and training future leaders within the organization. The authors reach two main conclusions: 1) This leader views himself as a transformational leader and is concerned with the development of future leaders. 2) This leader uses coaching as a practice and a skill for developing future leaders. Leader takes the coach's role when he supports and encourages personal and professional development of other leaders. The executive coaching is chosen by transformational leaders with the goal of promoting internally developing leaders in the organization. The leader who cares about the development of new leaders within the organization assumes the role of leader-coach through the development of skills and the use of coaching as a leadership development practice.
