Global Coaching Project (2007~Ongoing)

Collaborator: Graduate School Alliance for Executive Coaching (GSAEC)

Description: The project was funded by the Foundation of Coaching and the Graduate School Alliance for Executive Coaching a community of universities, including Penn that offer graduate coaching programs. Coaching researchers from across the world, including Dr. Starr, met at Harvard University in September 2008 to establish the International Coaching Research Forum in order to set a global coaching research agenda.

This research project is designed to help build organizational and executive coaching into a professional academic discipline by (a) identifying and entering into a global coaching resource website all academic institutions (worldwide) that offer graduate-level programs in organizational and executive coaching, and (b) engaging leadership of these programs in a peer-review of a proposed graduate coaching curriculum.
