Episode 45: Coaching Is Not an American Thing - with Ana Pliopas, Ph.D
There are coaches all around the world. In this episode, we examine executive coaching and career development from the point of view of someone who practices in a different hemisphere. Michael speaks with Ana Pliopas, Ph.D, a coach in Brazil who trained at the Hudson Institute, where Michael also did his coach training. They discuss how the pandemic affected the way people see their careers, the differences and similarities in how pandemic stress showed up in Brazil vs. the United States, and how coaching might show up differently in the two countries. She also shares what she learned in the course of writing her dissertation on the relationships among clients, organizations and coaches.
