<strong>Global</strong> <strong>Coaching</strong> <strong>Survey</strong> 2008/2009 CloSinG note<br />

|<br />

iv. CloSinG note<br />

The <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Coaching</strong> <strong>Survey</strong> will be conducted regularly from<br />

now on, and it will be very interesting to see how coaching<br />

evolves on each continent in the future.<br />

It is worth repeating that in many cases responses by<br />

participants are rough estimates. <strong>Coaching</strong> is a young<br />

discipline, and exact figures are rarely available (e.g. as<br />

most countries have no requirement to register as a coach,<br />

it is difficult to identify their number of coaches). So whilst<br />

the survey can provide a good first idea of coaching around<br />

the world, in each continent, region and country, it is far<br />

from being absolutely accurate. Where the results open up<br />

controversial discussions, this is welcome and in the spirit of<br />

the survey.<br />

Also recall that, in this first run of the survey, there is a<br />

clear focus on professional one-to-one business coaching.<br />

This was deliberately chosen as it is the most visible and<br />

well-known coaching form so far in the corporate world<br />

and thus was a valid starting point. However, it is only the<br />

starting point. Next time, there will be much more coverage<br />

of other coaching forms (e.g. coaching leadership style, team<br />

coaching).<br />

There is still a lot of research on coaching in the world<br />

to be done, and this survey may hopefully also serve as an<br />

invitation and starting point for others to undertake further<br />

research in the field.<br />
