LEADERSHIP
- Reciprocal Peer Coaching Supported by a Professional Coach: The Future of Sustained Leader Development? Liane Kemp (2019). Philosophy of Coaching: An International Journal, 4 (1), 57-75. Leader development requires learning new ways of behaving, which takes sustained practice over time, yet organisations continue to focus their efforts in traditional classroom style workshops, spending billions of dollars in the process. This paper describes and interrogates a contemporary approach to leader development, that includes reciprocal peer coaching to embed skill development, increase goal attainment, and enable learning transfer into the wider organisational system for positive impact (http://dx.doi.org/10.22316/poc/04.1.05.)
