 Executive coaching research: possibilities and vulnerabilitiesHaritha Etakula and M.P. Ganesh International Journal of Business Excellence, 2024, vol. 33, issue 1, 122-141 Abstract: In the mutating corporate world, it is imperative for organisations to constantly review and re-invent their strategies of service and production policies. Senior executives play a crucial role in the growth of such organisations. It is crucial that these executives are informed, inclusive, and innovative in their thought processes. It has therefore become critical for organisations to spend considerable resources in grooming effective leaders in thought-skills and mentorship methods. Learning and development departments are increasingly using holistic development initiatives, such as coaching and mentoring. Executive coaching, as a developmental tool, has seen an increased interest and usage amongst corporates across industries, drawing the attention of academicians as well. Topical literature suggests that there is a burgeoning interest in the practice of coaching based on research. In this context, this paper deliberates on the possibilities and probable issues that a researcher may face at different stages of research on executive coaching. Keywords: executive coaching; coaching approaches; leadership development; human resources; organisation development; research methodology.
