Professional coaching has long been a human-centric domain, but that’s changing as coaches turn to technology to augment their services and coaching platforms embrace the potential of data analysis and digital delivery. In this comprehensive overview of the digital coaching field, coaches Anna Tavis and Woody Woodward chart the rise of the coaching industry from its roots in ancient Greece to today’s digital revolution. Tavis and Woodward explore the ways digital coaching — in corporate environments, sports, health care, and beyond — is redefining how people learn and grow.

Typically, these four outcomes unfold over an extended period because coaching is a process, not a quick fix. The coaching process includes assessing a client’s initial needs, agreeing to a set schedule, writing a contract, conducting the coaching sessions, measuring outcomes, and providing feedback. Although academic research on coaching is still in its infancy, a meta-analysis of scientific studies suggests it improves work satisfaction and well-being more than training.
