Bonus Episode – Season 1 Highlights

Welcome to this bonus episode, where we reflect on changes that have occurred since our recording on these topics and some insights we’ve had since. We started Season 1 in November 2020 when Covid cases were rising rapidly again with lots of uncertainty and we’d finished recording before Christmas and it was after this that cases took off in the UK so things have developed a lot since our initial episodes.


Some of the things we look at include:


How a return to work - or not is impacting on our clients - and the issues of the so-called great resignation.


Since we talked about team coaching, there’s been some interesting data that comes from The Team Coaching Studio, which we look at.


We also look back at mental health with some interesting data coming from McKinsey and Microsoft.

About the Podcast

The Coaching Question
Exploring the world of coaching in business, for coaches, users and buyers of coaching
Two experienced executive coaches, Sarah Turner and Gregor Findlay discuss topics pertinent to those that commission and use coaching in organisations, as well as for coaches themselves.

We want more coaching conversations to be happening in the world and while there are lots of resources targetted at coaches, there seem to be less targetted at helping those that bring coaches into organisations.
