: Greetings from Argentina! Leadership skills will evolve through immersive simulations and role-playing, enabling safe practice in decision-making and conflict resolution. Smart tools like wearables and productivity apps will measure coaching outcomes, focusing on productivity, well-being, and balance. Coaching for adaptability, resilience, and prediction will grow. AI and big data will make coaching more precise, identifying real-time patterns for effective adjustments and improved results.

The impact of coaching in organizations is greater than what coaches do and what employees receive. It is systematically creating shared ownership and resilience for its people to thrive and sustain productivity in a constantly disruptive world. Coaching is shifting from a skill and behaviour to a habit of thinking.

there is still a tendency to fund higher executive coaching packages rather than focus on building the system bench strength. I think that the demand for options for the Mgr/ new Dir level will change and that group/ cohort/ system based coaching will need to immerge.

as a Business coach teacher of university, my students come into coaching training with a wide range of qualifications and experience and more business coaches and tools mix coaching with advising, consulting or mentoring. Many Business coaches already bring expertise from second careers. Maybe the Business coach future is a “coachsultant” – someone who mentors, trains, and inspires.

organizations need to stress, and keep stressing on the importance of coaching, rather than just award coaching credits to employees. Do employees feel that they have an issue hence they need to go for coaching? Organizations should also build the trust that the employees will have their full confidentiality and information will not be divulged.
