► SUMMARY
This episode traces the evolution of coaching from its roots in Timothy Gallwey’s The Inner Game to its development in the business world by John Whitmore, Graham Alexander, and Alan Fine. It examines how these pioneers structured the methodology—particularly through the GROW model—while grappling with the tension between the original non-directive approach and the introduction of more directive elements. Finally, it explores the perspectives of Myles Downey and Bob Thomson on balancing the essence of non-directive coaching with its practical application in contemporary settings.
