Coaching is popular. Meanwhile there is a broad variety of approaches that are supposed to help in a business context — from systemic to solution focused to agile. More and more people see themselves as professional helpers who have a lot of expertise to offer.

The Problem

The problem is that most coaches focus primarily on individuals and teams. Applying the Flight Levels Model calls for organisational support though.For helping the whole enterprise effectively we need at least three capabilities. 1. a broader understanding of coaching that can cope with different levels of complexity 2. a broad variety of technical and social skills 3. intense practice.
