The racial reckoning that occurred after the murder of George Floyd and the remote workplace dynamics created by the pandemic contributed to the tension that many Black professionals felt. Despite the efforts to maintain professionalism and collegiality, organisations did little to assuage the racial reckoning beyond pledges to initiate social justice and racial equity organisational change. This paper aims to help build a body of literature that acknowledges the unique vantage point of those with overlapping marginalised identities and, in particular, we examine the ways in which seven Black women leadership coaches understood and navigated workplace tensions after the racial reckoning. Through their coaching, these leadership coaches were able to help Black leaders build their capacities and improve their performance. Using armouring, they were also able to facilitate conversations about race within their organisations toward developing policies and practices that would help them move toward racial equity.

Gender equality in organisational leadership is still poor. Evidence suggests that women may experience lower levels of self-confidence than men and that this may influence the representation of women in senior leadership roles. Addressing this would play a role in the equalisation of gender differences in organisations and coaching can be effective in building self-confidence and the allied concept of self-efficacy. An exploratory qualitative study using semi-structured interviews was conducted with 12 workplace coaches experienced in coaching female leaders. The aim was to explore the effect of self-confidence amongst female leaders and the role that coaching can play in providing support that will encourage leadership progression. Low self-confidence was found to be ubiquitous in coaching conversations with female leaders, and was often a safer, surface level topic that masked much deeper issues. The value of trusted relationships that encourage trial of new behaviours was identified. A reflective coaching process of trial, reflection and adaptation is recommended to overcome low self-confidence and challenge leadership stereotypes. The study provides benefits to workplace coaches to understand the challenges that female leaders bring to coaching and how they may be addressed.

This paper presents a critique of current norms relating to reflective practice and coaching ethics in the context of our aspirations as coaches and supervisors to contribute to greater social justice, equity and inclusion in the workplace and wider society. Critically reflective action learning (CRAL) is argued for as an approach to reflective practice that might help to address the critique that reflective practice in coaching and supervision is currently dominated by a Eurocentric over-emphasis on the individual’s self-awareness at the expense of developing the individual’s social awareness and critical consciousness. I argue further that addressing this bias would enhance our ability as supervisors to support coaches serving clients who live and work in a world characterised by a complex intersection of oppressive, existential issues. Without criticality and radical compassion, we risk being the blind leading the blind.

Workplace coaching has grown in popularity and is increasingly used for a plethora of purposes across organisations. As a growing field, coaching is still in need of a continuing commitment to evidence-based evaluation, especially considering the current unsystematic outcome literature. However, this need for scientific, evidence-based evaluation is not actioned and there is indication that coaching evaluation is even less rigorous in practice. This position paper explores what might be the barriers against a scientific, evidence-based coaching evaluation in practice. Suggestions grounded in the literature are presented with the aim that these might inform future research and practice.

Coaching supervision is still an emergent profession with a limited body of research to support its credibility and practice. This qualitative study is the first to explore the use of music and mark-making as a creative tool within coaching supervision and highlights information about both coach and coach supervisor experience. The research explores the question, ‘How does using mark-making in response to music within coaching supervision affect coaches’ experience of reflective practice?’ through semi-structured interviews, analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) methodology. Findings revealed that using music and mark-making as a creative tool within coaching supervision enhances reflective practice and supports the client-supervisor relationship, enabling highly effective supervision to take place. The results offer coaches, coaching supervisors, coach educators and researchers and other professionals in other contexts where supervision forms an integral part of professional support and development insights into using music and other creative tools in supervision sessions and the impact on reflective practice. Keywords: coaching supervision, music, creativity, coaching psychology, reflective practice
