In coaching, an individual moves personally toward fulfillment and then returns to the larger systems where he/she has an impact on. The larger system may support that change, or resist it in order to maintain the status quo. When a coach works with an individual outside of their relationship system the possibility for overall change may be reduced. To avoid this Relationship Systems Coaching will endeavor to design an alliance with the larger system (direct reporting team / team of peers etc…) so that the individual and the larger system can be synergistic and whole.
The holistic & integrated approach is based on this concept, and Individual Coaching & Alignment Coaching & Team Coaching are thus integrated
