ADDITIONAL RESOURCES ON THE ROI of coaching

Research on the ROI of coaching indicates 5-7x the initial investment. How can this be so high? Perhaps one reason is that coaching provides a customized, focused learning experience designed specifically to help leaders strengthen and develop competencies. The coaching process happens at regular intervals and learning occurs between, as well as during, coaching sessions.
