*Joyce, Bruce. (1987). Paper presented at the Staff Development Awareness Conference, Columbia, South Carolina, January.

“Incorporating coaching into my day-to-day work has allowed me to serve as a more effective thought partner and sounding board to my colleagues. Coaching has also provided me with new tools for supporting my direct reports and their growth as leaders and problem-solvers. I highly recommend this course for senior leaders who want to grow or stretch their teams.”
