Deb:  There is nothing so supportive and helpful as a good leader/coach match.  The style of coaching also matters.  If the coach assigns homework, pronounces expert opinions and judgements over a clear focus on client effective, development and growth, then coaching COULD also be an addition stressor.

With a clear focus of what coaching is desired and helpful, with some goals articulated, coaching is often a good strategy to strengthen and renew your leaders, expecially your up and coming ones, who are most likely to benefit from coaching.
