One of my clients has a strong interest in coaching and has signed up as a participant on a " Corporate Coaching Training Programme" and is putting together a case study on organisations that have used coaches (both internal and external), to what effect and how have they measured the benefits. I don't have any direct experience but hopefully someone in this network might have.
Thanks

Coaching
A really fab person to speak to about coaching is Paul Furey from PEC (Performance Enhancement Coaching). We send all our staff to him. He published an article called “Interpersonal skills coaching for business: Evaluation of a brief training approach” in The Occupational Psychologist No 36 in December 1998. His number is 07000 234 678. Tell him Maggie Mosley said to ring.
