This year’s CIPD learning and development survey shows that coaching continues to grow in popularity.  It is now used by 71 per cent of employers, up 8 per cent on last year.

The most popular uses of coaching are for personal development, performance coaching and management and leadership development.

The greatest responsibility for delivering coaching falls to line managers and this trend is inspected to increase over the next five years.

But while 72 per cent of respondents consider coaching to be an effective tool, 42 per cent are concerned that success is gauged against objectives set by line managers, coaches and coachees, rather than a formal evaluation process.
