Dissertation Committee ____________________________________ John P. Conbere, Ed.D. Committee Chair ____________________________________ Patricia Hedberg, Ph.D. Committee Member ____________________________________ Joseph Volker, Ph.D. Committee Member ____________________________________ Final Approval Date ii Acknowledgements I initiated this scholarly journey with the intent to better understand the experience of leaders who engage in executive coaching. No effort of this magnitude is done alone. Several significant individuals shaped the various stages of my academic pursuit within this publication. Therefore, I wish to provide my written gratitude and indebtedness to those individuals who contributed to my study. I wish to start my appreciation with the dissertation committee. To my chair, Dr. John Conbere, thank you for agreeing to provide candid feedback, a nurturing spirit, and holistic commitment to meeting my learning objectives. To my committee members, Dr. Patricia Hedberg and Dr. Joseph Volker, who provided practical insights to my study. Finally, to Dr. Rama Hart who kick-started my study and got me to the “third quarter” of the game. There is tremendous power in the inspiration of a team, in the case of my learning cohort; I owe a great deal of praise! To my Cohort III colleagues who influenced me beyond measure during our three years of formal classes together and moreover for the time since navigating through the dissertation study. While I thank each of you, a few were on the sidelines cheering me on when I needed it most. I wish to name, Kat Cannon, Bill Landherr, Jim Jordan, Lloyd VanderKwaak, Janet Webster, and Rachel Wobschall. You have influenced my experience beyond measure. To the six subjects who participated in this study. Each of you provided me your valuable time and energy by agreeing to participate in this study. I am so appreciative of your candor and honesty about the coaching experience. You principally have addressed my original intention for this study. Without your contributions this study would not have been possible. iii To my coaching clients who inspired this journey in the first place. I have often wondered what you were really thinking, feeling and experiencing in our coaching sessions together. I believe I have a greater sense of what you may have encountered in our time together. To my wife, Jennifer Morrell, who supported me through this arduous process. You alone know the trials and tribulations of this experience. Thank you for enduring my emotional roller-coaster over the time period of this study. Finally, I thank the Triune God, The Father, The Son – Jesus, the Messiah, and the Spirit for creating and sustaining me through the process. I hope that in some small way my efforts here build Your Kingdom. iv Abstract The purpose of this study was to understand the lived experience of leaders who engaged in executive coaching as a leadership development initiative. Through Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), six participants, three women and three men, shared their experience of the client side of executive coaching. Data collected through one-on-one interviews provided rich descriptions of the client’s perceptions during their coaching engagement. Thematic findings include three Super-Ordinate themes: A Hope & Faith in the Coaching Process, The Journey and Memory Book. Sub-themes under Hope & Faith in the Coaching Process: investment in me, know oneself, expect the unexpected, and ascension. Sub- themes under The Journey: attending, facing warts, freckles and scars, Johari Window, and leader as humanitarian. Sub-themes under Memory Book: nostalgia, self-reflection, client-coach fit and still learning. The three Super-Ordinate themes and sub-themes provide significant insight to the lived experience of leaders in coaching. The research provides recommendations to organizations who may hire a coach, to the executive who is new to coaching or a veteran of coaching, and to the executive coach. Future research is suggested for both positivistic and interpretive studies. v Table of Contents Acknowledgements………………………………………………………………………ii Abstract………………………………………………………………………………….iv Table of Contents………………………………………………………………………...v List of Tables and Figures………..…………………………………………………….viii Chapter 1: Introduction…………………………………………………………………..1 Statement of the Problem…………………………………………………………2 Researcher Interest……………………………………………………………….2 Purpose of the Study……………………………………………………………..4 Research Question………………………………………………………………..4 Definitions………………………………………………………………………..5 Significance of the Study………………………………………………………...8 Assumptions …………………………………………………………………….10 Organization of the Study ……………………………………………………….11 Chapter 2: A Review of the Literature …………………………………………………..13 What is Executive Coaching? …………………………………………………………...13 Is Executive Coaching Effective? ……………………………………………….15 Models of Executive Coaching ………………………………………………….16 Coaching Practices ………………………………………………………...........18 Client Perspectives ………………………………………………………...........19 Chapter 3: Research Methods…………………………………………………………....23 Phenomenological Study ………………………………………………………..23 Recruitment of Subjects …………………………………………………………24 Criteria ……………………………….. ………………………………………...25 Role of the Researcher……………………………………………………... …..26 Data Collection Procedures ……………………………………………..............27 Data Analysis Procedures ……………………………………………………….27 Validity ………………………………………………………………………….34 Ethical Issues ……………………………………………………………………35 Chapter 4: Findings ………………………………………………………………...........36 Participants Snapshot ……………………………………………………………36 vi Profiles of Interview Cases ……………………………………………………...37 Super-Ordinate Themes …………………………………………………............63 Super-Ordinate Themes One - Hope and Faith in the process....….......................65 Investment in Me ………………………………………………..66 Expect the Unexpected ………………………………………….68 Know Oneself …………………………………………………...71 Ascension ………………………………………………………..73 Super-Ordinate Theme Two - The Journey ……………………………………..76 Attending ………………………………………………………..77 Facing Warts, Freckles and Scars ………………………………79 Johari Window……………………………………………….......81 Steering Small……………………………………………83 The Safety Net…………………………………………...84 The Sounding Board………………………………..........85 Concern With Changing Too Much……………………...86 Leaders as Humanitarian ………………………………………...87 Super-Ordinate Theme Three -The Memory Book ……………………………..91 I’m Still Learning ………………………………………………..91 Client-Coach Fit …………………………………………………93 Self-Reflection …………………………………………………..96 Nostalgia ………………………………………………………...97 The Lived Experience …………………………………………………………...98 Chapter 5: Discussion …………………………………………………………………101 Implication of Findings ………………………………………………………...102 The Organization ………………………………………………………………102 The Executive ………………………………………………………………….104 The Executive Coach …………………………………………………………..105 Organization Development Consultants………………………………………..107 Organization Development Scholars…………………………………………...109 Future Research ………………………………………………………………..110 Personal Insights ……………………………………………………………….112 vii Conclusion ……………………………………………………………………116 References……………………………………………………………………………..118 Appendices ……………………………………………………………………………125 Appendix A - Sample Invitation ……………………………………………………...125 Appendix B - Informed Consent ……………………………………………….……..128 Appendix C - Semi-Structured Interview Guide …………………………….…….….133 Appendix D - Data Analysis Form ………………………………………………..….137 viii List of Tables and Figures Table 1 Participant Snapshot….………………………………………………………...37 Table 2 Themes by Subject….………………………………………………….............47 Table 3 Frequency…..…………………………………………………………………..48 Table 4 Essential Passages….…………………………………………………………..49 Table 5 Summary of Themes…………………………………………………………...63 Figure 1 A Conceptual Framework for Successful Executive Coaching……………….18 Figure 2 Johari Window………………………………………………………………...82 Figure 3 The Lived Experience………………………………………………………..100 1 Chapter 1 The International Coaching

Raising Race Questions: Whiteness, Education and Inquiry in Seven Teacher Case Studies Abstract Race matters in schools. In addition to the highly publicized racialized achievement gap, race has historically determined who can access education and what kind of education people receive. Additionally, teachers and students bring racial identities to school that impact how they relate to one another, to the school community and to the curriculum. Finally, schools are places where race gets constructed. This study uses qualitative and action research methods to do research with teachers—rather than on teachers—as they learn about how and why race matters in education—and what that means for their classrooms. Because 85% of the K–12 teaching force in the United States is White and middle–class (National Center for Education Statistics, 2010), this research focuses on seven White and middle–class teachers. Through in–depth case studies of each teacher, I explore the conflicts, questions and revelations that arise as they struggle to learn about race, and apply their learning in their classrooms.

In this exploratory study, 33 interviews, comprised of family life educators and social workers, were conducted in order to gain the perspective of how SNSs were being used in practice. A phenomenological approach was used to get at the lived experiences of these professionals. In addition, a Johari Window lens provided a way to understand the level of transparency professionals had when interacting with the digital culture. Themes found described how SNSs were being utilized in practice. These centered on benefits to the agency, clientele, and to the professional. The changing technological climate was shown to be impacting the delivery of services, yet professionals were underutilizing SNSs in practice. Regardless if the professional was on or offline, being recognized as a professional was extremely important. As a result, professionals were cognizant of potential consequences of using SNSs for professional and personal use.
