Global Executive Coaching Survey 2021

November 19, 2021 | Report

The Global Executive Coaching Survey 2021 highlights executive coaching practices within organizations and examines the external and internal coaching practices of profit, nonprofit, and government organizations. Building on more than a decade of coaching research, this current study focuses on how trends are shifting and evolving in turbulent business environments.

Leaders are now facing sweeping changes. A global pandemic, rising remote work, civil and racial unrest, economic turmoil, social change, and chaos in educational institutions—all pose challenges in the workplace. Top of mind for CEOs—and leadership in general—is the ability to recruit and retain top talent amidst the ongoing impact of COVID-19.[1]
