Coaching Women: Changing the System not the Person

Gallacher, Geraldine

Coaching Women: Changing the System not the Person

The book focuses on the interplay of a woman's personal journey with the prevailing notions of career structures and leadership and points to the need for a deep understanding of both to effect change. In looking at the issue of too few female leaders this book marries a rich understanding of the challenges of effecting change at a personal and psychological level with those encountered at a macro, systems level.Coaching case studies are used to highlight key transition points where women internalise systemic failures and where a better understanding of the gendered nature of their work environment might lead to better outcomes for women's career success. Coaches will value the insights from the case studies and the range of tools used and HR and Diversity and Inclusion specialists will value the examples given and the tips provided to help them champion the necessary change within their organisations. By honing in on specific coaching engagements the book demonstrates in close-up how women can be tempted to internalise shortcomings of cultures which demand 24/7 commitment and thereby marginalise those with caring responsibilities and a desire to live a balanced life. The book looks outside of gender diversity to find examples of successful systemic change and considers these in its recommendations including the role of men and how coaching men is key to making the cultural shift required. The book stands out for its emphasis on the importance of the maternity transition as a pivotal point in women's careers and its recognition of the need for all women to share a common understanding of the reasons for the lack of female leaders to enable a solution to emerge.
