Lesley Kuhn, Alison Whybrow

Research output: Chapter in Book / Conference PaperChapter

Abstract

Our aim in this chapter is to set out a way that coaching might be viewed from a complexity sciences (hereafter referred to as complexity) perspective and to highlight how complexity-informed approaches might expand the knowledge base of coaching psychology. The major organising principles and associated concepts of complexity are introduced and suggestions are offered for using complexity in practice.
