Group Coaching for Women Leaders: Belonging and Thriving Through Collective Leadership Development - Paperback

by Hélène Seiler (Author)

This book is an invaluable resource for those looking to lead high-functioning women groups, and a testament to the power of group coaching for women leaders.

Dr. Hélène Seiler advocates for the expansion of group coaching to support the fulfilment of women leaders, providing a comprehensive review of the relevant academic literature on group coaching for women leaders and an in-depth analysis of her reflective notes over the last 15 years.

Using case studies and practical tips, the author offers recommendations when forming a new collective of women leaders, shares best practices in high-functioning groups, provides solutions when dealing with breakdowns within a group, and provides guidelines to lead change when a group composition evolves. This book also addresses the potential impact of technology and artificial intelligence on the stakeholders of group coaching. Each chapter contains key points, multi-cultural case studies, and ends with reflective questions to enrich and personalize the reader's learning experience.

Group Coaching for Women Leaders is an essential resource for group coaches working with women leaders internationally, for academic leaders looking to extend their offerings for student coaches, and for corporate sponsors interested in augmenting the power of women leadership development initiatives in their organizations.
