Abstract

This research paper aims at understanding which moments are experienced as peak/the strongest positive moments identified by coachees. Semi-structured interviews with 18 managers of a large Czech bank were recorded and analysed showing the following results. The experiences seen as a peak in coaching varied considerably. Four key themes were identified – (1) aha-moments and moments of insight, (2) relief and reassurance, (3) awareness/attentiveness/mindfulness moments and (4) exteriorisation of the problem. This research shows that the key benefits of coaching might not lie only in what comes after coaching, but also in the positive experience coming from the coaching process itself.
