Coaching Methods and Impact Ethics in Business and Education Psychology, Coaching, and Therapy

Abstract

This opinion piece suggests that the idea of coaching ethics is flawed. There is no particular professional ethic associated with coaching, nor should there be. The implications of the conflict between the ethics of caring and “business ethics” for coaching are poorly recognised. Guidance from and the ethical stance of many of the organisations that represent and accredit coaches does not serve ethical coaching well. Many of the frameworks for accreditation are inconsistent with the stated values of the organisations promulgating them and could be considered unethical.
