Coaching support for leader/ship identity work among senior leaders: expert coaches' perspectives
No full textThis qualitative doctoral research explores how executive coaches support Leader/ship
identity work among senior leaders. Using a Narrative Inquiry methodology, the study
analyses 34 semi-structured narrative interviews with international expert coaches, offering
insights into coaching practices and contributing to four key areas: conceptual, practical,
research and global contexts, with a particular focus on the international diversity of coaches
working with leaders worldwide.
The research defines Leader/ship identity work as a unified approach to both Leader identity
work and Leadership identity work in executive coaching, emphasising the evolving and
holistic nature of identity development in senior leaders. It highlights the critical role of
coaching support, including trust, reflection and creating a safe, non-judgemental space, to
facilitate this Identity work. Two conceptual frameworks are developed to understand Identity
work and its multiple domains, grounded in a multi-disciplinary literature review.
The study critically examines existing executive coaching literature, identifying gaps and
suggesting ways to advance the field. It presents an empirically derived Mechanism of
Executive Coaching to Support Leader/ship Identity Work, which includes three themes:
Holistic and Dynamic Leader/ship Identity Work, Contextual Factors and Intrinsic Aspects
Influencing Leader/ship Identity Work and Coaches' Support of Leader/ship Identity Work.
This Mechanism aligns leaders' identities with their aspirations, promoting both personal and
professional growth.
The study concludes by conceptualising executive coaching as an Identity Enhancement
Space, refining existing coaching concepts and practices. It offers recommendations for
future research, encouraging the exploration of the long-term impact of coaching on
Leader/ship identity through longitudinal and mixed-method studies. Additionally, future
research should prioritise greater sample diversity, multiple data sources and a mix of coach
perspectives to ensure a more balanced, evidence-based understanding of coaching
practices

Nelia Farrow portrait
No full textThis portrait of a young woman who appears to be identified on the negative as Nelia Farrow of Walnut, West Virginia, was taken by traveling photographer Albert J. Ewing, ca. 1896-1912. Like most of Ewing's work, it was taken in the region of southeastern Ohio and central West Virginia.
Born in 1870 in Washington County, Ohio, near Marietta, Ewing most likely began his photography career in the 1890s. The 1910 US Census and a 1912-1913 directory list him as a photographer. A negative signed "Ewing Brothers" and a picture with his younger brother, Frank, indicate that Frank may have joined the business. After 1916, directories list Albert as a salesman. He died in 1934. The Ewing Collection consists of 5,055 glass plate negatives, each individually housed and numbered. Additionally, the collection includes approximately 450 modern contact prints made from the glass plate negatives. Subjects include infants and young children, elderly people, families, school and religious groups, animals and rural scenes. In 1982, the Ohio Historical Society (now the Ohio History Connection) received the collection, still housed in the original dry plate negative boxes purchased by Ewing. A selection of the original glass plate negatives were exhibited for the first time in 2013 at the Ohio History Center

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
