Course Description

In this module, students will examine the complex dynamics that culture and identity (e.g., race, gender, language, etc.) play in leadership and coaching, and understand the importance of context, including social location, in coaching. Students will recognize the various aspects of their identity and that of their client and how they impact the coaching relationship. Students will express greater cultural competence and discuss the ongoing process of self-awareness and self-reflection for both the coach and client. Students will identify and question their own explicit and implicit biases and how they impact them and their coaching relationships. Students will perceive and design their coaching approach with awareness and sensitivity to meet the cultural contexts in which they are working, and recognize the personal, interpersonal, systemic, and structural implications of the role of identity in coaching.
