On June 10, 2010, we hosted a webinar with Dr. Andrew Thorn on peer coaching. The webinar was titled - Symphony™: The Future of Leadership Development and was based on his formal research study titled: The Impact of Peer Coaching on Leadership Effectiveness. The study took place over a five year period and included very well know participants from the banking, pharmaceutical and power generation industries.
The goal of the study was to determine if the results from peer coaching could measure up to the results of executive coaching. The findings of the study demonstrated peer coaching to meet and even exceed the results of executive coaching. The process proved to be an innovative, cost effective leadership development strategy that creates greater employee engagement by broadening the reach of coaching and establishing a vibrant culture of accountability.
During the webinar session, the number of questions received greatly exceeded our time and capacity to get through them all, so we asked Andrew to answer some of the most critical of those we had in this Q&A document. We appreciate his willingness to do so and to let us make this information available to you all.
