Workplace Coaching
How the organizational environment makes people learn
The Research
Coaching over the past 30 years has gained exponential attention from companies as well as researchers from different fields, yet many things are unclear – we are still searching for answers on unresolved issues.
Our aim with this research is to find answers to some of the issues in question about coaching and individuals in organizational settings.
The present research is a cooperation between Maastricht University and the CDHK from Tongji University and investigates how different types of workplace coaching affect coachees’ learning & development in terms of their motivation and learning behavior while taking into account structural and cultural components of the organizational environment.
