Coaching-Based Leadership Intervention Program: A Controlled Trial Study

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In spite of the potential benefits that coaching-based leadership interventions can bring to organizations, basic questions remain about their impact on developing coaching skills and increasing psychological capital (PsyCap), work engagement and in-and extra-role performance. In a controlled trial study, 41 executives and middle managers (25 in the experimental group and 16 in the waiting-list control group) from an automotive sector company in Spain received pre-assessment feedback, a coaching-based leadership group workshop, and three individual executive coaching sessions over a period of 3 months. The intervention program used a strengths-based approach and the RE-GROW model, and it was conducted by executive coaching psychologists external to the organization. Participants (N = 41) and their supervisors (N = 41) and employees (N = 180) took part in a pre-post-follow up 360-degree assessment during the research period. Quantitative data were analyzed using Analyses of Variance (ANOVA) with a 2 × 2 design, paired-samples t-tests, and univariate analyses between groups. Results indicated that the intervention program was successful in increasing the participants' coaching-based leadership skills, PsyCap, work engagement, and in-and extrarole performance. Qualitative measures were also applied, and results from individual responses provided additional support for the study hypotheses. Regarding practical implications, the results suggest that the Coaching-based Leadership Intervention Program can be valuable as an applied positive intervention to help leaders develop coaching skills and enhance well-being and optimal functioning in organizations.

Coaching-based leadership is becoming increasingly popular in organizations due to its potential benefits for employees' growth, well-being, and performance. The purpose of this study is to provide a systematic review of empirical research focusing on the coaching-based leadership-work engagement and coaching-based leadershipperformance links in the work field. A computerized search was conducted, and fiftyone empirical studies focusing on the relationships between the aforementioned study variables were included in the review. Although findings revealed an important role of coaching-based leadership in enhancing work engagement and performance, they also identified a relative lack of consensus about its conceptualization and measurement, and a lack of rigorous theoretical frameworks and methodology to explain the relationship with the two work-related outcomes. Finally, a detailed agenda is presented to advance theoretical and empirical research in this field.
