The Coaching Industry: A Work in Progress
There’s no question that future leaders will need constant coaching and the coaching industry badly needs someone to define the profession. Four experts give their comments on a survey about coaching industry.
A Ram Charan
As the survey results demonstrate, what we think of coaching today is generally a service to middle managers provided by entrepreneurs with a background in consulting, psychology or human resources. This kind of coaching became popular over the past five years because companies faced a shortage of talent and were concerned about turnover among key employees. Firms wanted to signal their commitment to developing their high-potential executives, so they hired coaches. The kind of coaches I am talking about will do more than influence behaviour: they will be an essential part of the leader’s learning process, providing knowledge, opinions and judgment in critical areas.
B David B. Peterson
In the survey, only 3% of coaches said they were hired primarily to address non-work issues, yet more than three-quarters of coaches report having gotten into personal territories at some time. It underscores the fact that for most executives, work and life cannot be kept entirely separate. Many of them feel some strain on their personal lives. Not surprisingly, therefore, the more coaches can tap into a leader’s motivation to improve his or her home life, the greater and more lasting the impact of the coaching is likely to be at work.
C Michael Maccoby
The survey shows more than half of the coaches think their clients do not become overly dependent, which is, in my view, unrealistic. Coaches have an economic incentive to ignore the problem of dependency, creating a potential conflict of interest. It’s natural for them to want to expand their business, but the best coaches, like the best therapists, put their clients’ interests first. What this means for the companies is that before they hire a coach, they should ask him how he handles dependency in relationships.
D Anthony M. Grant
According to the majority of coaches in our survey, coaching differs dramatically from therapy. However, the notion that candidates for coaching are mentally robust flies in the face of academic research. I’m not suggesting most executives who engage coaching have mental health disorders. But some might, and coaching those who have unrecognised mental health problems can be counterproductive and even dangerous. Firms should require that coaches have some training in mental health issues—for example, an understanding of when to refer client to professional therapists for help.
Coaches might overlook their clients’ interest for economic reasons.
选项
答案
C
解析
题干意为:培训师可能会因为经济原因忽视客户的利益。C段指出Coaches have aneconomic incentive to ignore the problem of dependency,creating a potential conflict ofinterest.即:培训师出于经济上的动机会忽视依赖问题,从而造成潜在的利益冲突。文中的“economic incentive”对应题干中的“economic reason”;文中的“ignore”与题干中的“overlook”表意相一致。
