Establishing a culture of coaching, with Vanessa Harwood-Whitcher

Anthony Haynes writes: 'Being passionate' has become a cliché of management speech - but in the case of Vanessa Harwood-Whitcher (CEO, Institute of Occupational Safety and Health), the culture of coaching is genuinely a passion.
 
Our conversation explores, in the context of IOSH's culture, the relation of coaching to a range of concepts - notably

• empowerment
• learning culture
• learning from each other - informally as well as formally

In the process, we consider the significance of inclusion, psychological safety, reverse mentoring, feedback, and reflective learning.
