Abstract: Today, coaching serves as a common and widely employed leadership development and organizational performance enhancement intervention.The literature shows that coaching produces positive outcomes, yet far less is known about how these positive outcomes are produced.This study organizes what is known to date, as represented in the scholarly literature, about the multitude of competencies that have been reported to lead to effective executive coaching experiences.These known competencies were used as the basis of the survey in this study.The results of this quantitative study represent the voices of 157 International Coach Federation certified coaches and 70 of their coachees across sixteen countries and indicate that effectiveness in executive coaching is the shared responsibility of the executive coach and the coachee.This study presents the top seven most commonly cited competencies from the coach's and coachee's perspectives, necessary for the highest level of effectiveness.These top competencies are organized by competency area and are represented visually in a coaching effectiveness model.
