{"title":"Is technostress stressing coaches out? The relevance of technostress to coaches’ emotional exhaustion and coaches’ perception of coaching success","authors":"Natalie M. Michalik, C. Schermuly","doi":"10.1080/17521882.2022.2128386","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/17521882.2022.2128386","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT The coaching market experienced a tremendous change within the last few years with a substantial increase in digital coaching. So far, little is known about possible effects of technostress on coaches’ health and coaching success. We conducted two studies on potential consequences of technostress in terms of coaches’ emotional exhaustion and coaches’ perception of coaching success. In Study 1 (N = 330), we tested the direct relationship between coaches’ perceived technostress and emotional exhaustion. In Study 2 (N = 132), we used a time-lagged design to replicate our findings and extended our model. We investigated potential consequences of coaches’ technostress for coaches’ perception of coaching success mediated by coaches’ emotional exhaustion. Across both studies, coaches’ technostress had a direct effect on coaches’ emotional exhaustion but not on their perception of coaching success. This effect was maintained at a 6-week follow-up assessment in Study 2. Furthermore, techno-overload and techno-uncertainty had the highest means among coaches in both studies and therefore seem to have the greatest relevance for coaches. Finally, core self-evaluations did not buffer the relationship between coaches’ technostress and emotional exhaustion. The results expand knowledge about the consequences of technostress for coaches’ health and coaching success and highlight the importance of coaches’ self-care.","PeriodicalId":41588,"journal":{"name":"Coaching-An International Journal of Theory Research and Practice","volume":"4 2 1","pages":"155 - 172"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76059092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was a significant main effect of gender, with female coaches being preferred over male coaches; effect of experience, with less experienced coaches being preferred over those with more experience; and background, with those from a business background being preferred over those with a psychology background. There were more important interaction effects, particularly around the sex of the coach.

Using purposive convenience sampling, 260 coaches were asked about their training, the ethical dilemmas they have experienced, and how they have resolved their ethical dilemmas. The qualitative and quantitative results indicated that coaches reported a variety of dilemmas, with the three most common types being dilemmas related to conflicts of interest, confidentiality, and boundaries between therapy and coaching. The most reported methods of resolving dilemmas included informal resolution, referral to therapy, seeking supervision, seeking consultation and referring to the ICF Ethics Code. The results highlight common ethical issues that arise in coaching and their relationship to other helping professions.","PeriodicalId":41588,"journal":{"name":"Coaching-An International Journal of Theory Research and Practice","volume":"14 2 1","pages":"264 - 277"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85263595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Janet, an undergraduate student, wanted to feel happier, and cultivating gratitude has been shown to increase well-being [Cunha, L. F., Pellanda, L. C., & Reppold, C. T. (2019).

Pre and post the four-week coaching encounter she completed, the Subjective Happiness Scale (SHS), the Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6) and a Wheel of Life (WoL). Using the WoL as a goal setting tool, the gratitude exercises were selected to complement the coachee’s weekly goals. After sessions, her SHS score increased by 50%, whereas her GQ6 score increased by 33%. There were also changes in her WoL ratings, particularly in the area of family and friends, as well as personal growth. Although the direction of these changes is predicted by the literature, we may need to be cautious about interpreting the strength of these changes. They may be due to a placebo effect. An inherent weakness of the case study approach is that factors other than the intervention can impact measured changes. Nevertheless, this case study does outline a process of how to integrate a positive psychology intervention into a coaching encounter and may act as a template for this type of work.","PeriodicalId":41588,"journal":{"name":"Coaching-An International Journal of Theory Research and Practice","volume":"64 1","pages":"49 - 58"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84920357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper intends to amend this deficit and provides an understanding and conceptual model of the dynamics in a coach’s individual well-being at work. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with 18 coaches and the findings illustrate that Coaches’ well-being is not a static state. There are job demands of coaching that can impact a coach’s well-being and there is a need for coaches to balance their resources with a high level of agility. There are also deeper underlying dynamics to a coach’s well-being that are interrelated with each other; energy currents, self-regulation, and levels of well-being. The way in which coaches optimise their resources and energy and active management of self will help or hinder a coach’s well-being at work, which may be more difficult for novice coaches.","PeriodicalId":41588,"journal":{"name":"Coaching-An International Journal of Theory Research and Practice","volume":"28 1","pages":"59 - 71"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74120846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
