Leadership Coaching Transfer Pulse

If you have taken part in an executive or organizational coaching engagement, answer these 10 questions based on that experience. It takes about three minutes. The research form does not ask for your name or email, and the 2026 findings will be reported only in aggregate.

Who should respond?

HR/people leaders, coaching sponsors, direct managers, professional coaches and coachees with direct experience of a coaching engagement supported by an organization.

What happens after you submit?

Your response is added to the research pool. After submitting, you can optionally enter your email in a separate form if you want the final evidence brief. That email is not included in your research response.

Privacy

Do not enter names, company names, client details or confidential coaching content. The research form does not ask for your name or email. Responses are sent to Mehdi through Web3Forms and analysed only in aggregate.

01The coaching goal was clear enough to describe in observable behavioural or work terms.
02The coachee had a real voice in shaping the coaching goal.
03The direct manager understood how to support the goal without entering confidential session content.
04The leader had enough decision authority to practise the behaviour being developed.
05The work environment created real opportunities to practise the new behaviour.
06The leader received specific feedback on observable behaviour during the engagement.
07The organization addressed system barriers that contradicted the coaching goal.
08There was a midpoint review before the end of the engagement.
09Confidentiality and information-sharing boundaries were clear to client, sponsor and coach.
10By the end of the engagement, relevant people could observe meaningful behaviour change at work.

How the data will be reported

This is a practitioner-led convenience sample, not a representative population survey. Findings will be labelled accordingly. Public reporting will use aggregate results, disclose sample size and field dates, and avoid causal claims the design cannot support. Small subgroups will not be reported separately.

Why these 10 items?

The items are grounded in research on coaching context, training transfer, feedback and professional contracting. They are research questions—not a validated scale.

How to cite this resource

If you reference this practitioner research in an article, report or presentation, cite the page directly and preserve the methodological limitation: this is a practitioner-led convenience sample, not a representative population survey.
