uring the past fteen years, I have served as coach to a number of lawyers, economists, accountants, and scientists whose jobs entailed managing the work of others. Some of this work was part of a formal coaching program designed to support the management development of professionals (including those identied as high potential by their organizations). Other aspects were related to larger, organization development interventions, e.g., coaching leaders to prepare them for guiding their organizations through strategic planning processes. Still other aspects involved targeted interventions with key professionals who were highly valued for their technical contributions but were having difficulty managing others.
